A watering can dispenses water at a rate of 0.15 gallon per minute. The original volume of water in the can was 5 gallons. Which

set of ordered pairs shows the volume of water in the can in gallons (y) as a function of time in minutes (x) from the first minute after the can starts dispensing water? {(1, 5.0), (2, 4.85), (3, 4.60)} {(5.0, 1), (4.85, 2), (4.70, 3)} {(1, 4.85), (2, 4.70), (3, 4.55)} {(4.85, 1), (4.70, 2), (4.45, 3)}

Y equals volume of water, x equals time. If they ask to find the coordinates at one minute, then the first thing you should do is set x equal to 1. That leaves two possible answers. Finally you need to decide how much water is lost in one minute. if you need more help leave a comment.

Solve the system of equations algebraically.<br> 4x - 3y = 6<br> 6x - 5y = 6
muminat

Answer: x=6  y=6

Step-by-step explanation:

\displaystyle\\\left \{ {{4x-3y=6} \atop {6x-5y=6}} \right.\\

Since the right parts of the equation are equal, therefore the left parts of the equation are also equal:

4x-3y=6x-5y\\4x-3y+5y=6x-5y+5y\\4x+2y=6x\\4x+2y-4x=6x-4x\\2y=2x\\

Divide both parts of the equation by 2:

y=x\\Hence,\\4x-3x=6\\x=6\\Thus,\\x=y=6

Given the following three points, find by the hand the quadratic function they represent (0,6, (2,16, (3,33)
Lisa [10]

Answer:

f(x) = 4x^2 - 3x + 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Quadratic function is given as f(x) = ax^2 + bx + c

Let's find a, b and c:

Substituting (0, 6):

6 = a(0)^2 + b(0) + c

6 = 0 + 0 + c

c = 6

Now that we know the value of c, let's derive 2 system of equations we would use to solve for a and b simultaneously as follows.

Substituting (2, 16), and c = 6

f(x) = ax^2 + bx + c

16 = a(2)^2 + b(2) + 6

16 = 4a + 2b + 6

16 - 6 = 4a + 2b + 6 - 6

10 = 4a + 2b

10 = 2(2a + b)

\frac{10}{2} = \frac{2(2a + b)}{2}

5 = 2a + b

2a + b = 5 => (Equation 1)

Substituting (3, 33), and c = 6

f(x) = ax^2 + bx + x

33 = a(3)^2 + b(3) + 6

33 = 9a + 3b + 6

33 - 6 = 9a + 3b + 6 - 6

27 = 9a + 3b

27 = 3(3a + b)

\frac{27}{3} = \frac{3(3a + b)}{3}

9 = 3a + b

3a + b = 9 => (Equation 2)

Subtract equation 1 from equation 2 to solve simultaneously for a and b.

3a + b = 9

2a + b = 5

a = 4

Replace a with 4 in equation 2.

2a + b = 5

2(4) + b = 5

8 + b = 5

8 + b - 8 = 5 - 8

b = -3

The quadratic function that represents the given 3 points would be as follows:

f(x) = ax^2 + bx + c

f(x) = (4)x^2 + (-3)x + 6

f(x) = 4x^2 - 3x + 6

To complete a task in 15 days, a company has 4 people each working 8 hours a day. The company
Klio2033 [76]

Answer:

Let's suppose that each person works at an hourly rate R.

Then if 4 people working 8 hours per day, a total of 15 days to complete the task, we can write this as:

4*R*(15*8 hours) = 1 task.

Whit this we can find the value of R.

R = 1 task/(4*15*8 h) = (1/480) task/hour.

a) Now suppose that we have 5 workers, and each one of them works 6 hours per day for a total of D days to complete the task, then we have the equation:

5*( (1/480) task/hour)*(D*6 hours) = 1 task.

We only need to isolate D, that is the number of days that will take the 5 workers to complete the task:

D = (1 task)/(5*6h*1/480 task/hour) = (1 task)/(30/480 taks) = 480/30 = 16

D = 16

Then the 5 workers working 6 hours per day, need 16 days to complete the job.

b) The assumption is that all workers work at the same rate R. If this was not the case (and each one worked at a different rate) we couldn't find the rate at which each worker completes the task (because we had not enough information), and then we would be incapable of completing the question.
