Answer:

Vehicle can travel 13/15 = 0.87 miles per gallon

Step-by-step explanation:

Using Direct ratio as increase of fuel increases mileage

gallons                                   miles

15                                             13

1                                                x

applying cross product

x*15=13*1

x= 13/15 miles or 0.87 miles

1. Start by identifying what the question wants so we are looking for miles per 1 gallon.
2. Set up a statement. When the word “per” is being used it relates to a fraction or a ratio. In this question we need to find how many miles a single gallon will give us. So set it up as miles/gallons
3. Plug in your numbers. Now our statement is 13 miles/15 gallons
4. Calculate. So do 13/15 which equals 0.86 miles per 1 gallon.
Tip: always add in words into your calculations. Mainly the units you are using so you can quickly look and know what the units will be. This will help you in upper placement math as well

Janelle draws line segments AB and BC in the same plane such that AB = 8 cm and BC = 6 cm. Then Janelle draws
Dovator [93]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

• AB, BC, and AC form a triangle. Enter a possible value of AC....

So it asks for only a possible value of AC as there are many possible values.

Given AB = 8 cm and BC = 6 cm, they are in the ratio of 3:4.

Line segments of 3, 4 and 5 length will form a right-angled triange.

A possible value of AC = 5*2 = 10cm

• Points A, B, and C lie on the same line, and C lies between A and B.

So AC+CB = AB

AC+6 = 8

AC = 2cm

Enter this value of AC in the second

response box.

In each case, determine if the function can be differentiated using the rules developed so far (sections 3.1 and 3.2). (a) y = 2
Alex_Xolod [135]
The rule for differentiation for variable with exponents has the formula:

d/dx (xⁿ) = nxⁿ⁻¹
where n is the exponent

Thus, for the given equation, the solution is as follows:
y = 2x²
dy/dx = 2(2)x²⁻¹ = <em>4x

Thus, the derived equation of the given would now be 4x.</em>
