<h3>Answer:</h3>

1 27/28 ≈ 1.964 gallons/hour

<h3>Step-by-step explanation:</h3>

You want gallons in the numerator of your unit rate, but that unit is in the denominator of the mileage rate. So, the computation must involve division by 28 mpg. Hours is already in the denominator of 55 mph, so the computation will involve multiplication by that rate.

... (55 mi/h)/(28 mi/gal) = (55 mi/h)·(1 gal/(28 mi)) = 55/28 gal/h

... = 1 27/28 gal/h

Write the coordinate point for the vertex of this parabola x^2=12y
sergeinik [125]

Answer:

(0,0)

Step-by-step explanation:

the x coordinate for the vertex is at the line of symmetry

ax^2 +bx+c

the line of symmetry is at h =-b/2a

x^2 =12y

divide by 12

1/12 x^2 = y

a = 1/12  b=0 c=0

h = 0/(2* 1/12)

h =0

to find the y coordinate, substitute x=0 back in

y = 1/12 * 0 =  0

the vertex is (0,0)

A bag contains 32 red​ blocks, 47 green​ blocks, 21 yellow​ blocks, and 25 purple blocks. You pick one block from the bag at ran
Studentka2010 [4]

Answer:

P(green or purple​) = 0.576

Step-by-step explanation:

A probability is the number of desired outcomes divided by the number of total outcomes.

In this problem, we have that:

32 + 47 + 21 + 25 = 125 blocks.

Of those, 47 + 25 = 72 are green of purple

​P(green or purple​) = 72/125 = 0.576
