Answer:

Option C

Step-by-step explanation:

Option D's unit is not used in volume measurement. A "ton" is 2,000 lbs. Pounds are not used to measure volume.

Since we are looking at the volume of a "large tank", then a quart and a pint would be too small, and therefore, not the most appropriate units to measure the volume of the tank with.

A "kiloliter" is equivalent to 1,000 liters. Note that the prefix "Kilo-" means 1,000. A kiloliter would be appropriate for measuring the volume of a large object, in this case a oil tank. It is the most appropriate out of the options given.

Option C should be the correct answer.

Answer:

C) Kiloliter

Step-by-step explanation:

Answers A and B are too small for a large tank and can easily be miscounted.

Answer D, Ton is 2,000 pounds which is way too big for the tank and isn't capacity.

Answer C, Kiloliters seems like the best option out of all of them.

Answer: $y \in R; y \neq 0$
Explanation: For this, it is often best to find the horizontal asymptote, and then take limits as x approaches the vertical asymptote and the end behaviours.

Well, we know there will be a horizontal asymptote at y = 0, because as x approaches infinite and negative infinite, the graph will shrink down closer and closer to 0, but never touch it. We call this a horizontal asymptote.
So we know that there is a restriction on the y-axis.

Now, since we know the end behaviours, let's find the asymptotic behaviours.

As x approaches the asymptote of 7⁻, then y would be diverging out to negative infinite.
As x approaches the asymptote at 7⁺, then y would be diverging out to negative infinite.

So, our range would be: $y \in R; y \neq 0$

Jonathan buys two baseball bats for $43 each they are on sale for 45% off he also bought a glove that was originally priced at 2

vladimir2022 [97]

Hi There!

-----------------------------------------------------

Baseball Bats:

43 x 0.45 = $19.35 as the amount off.

43 - 19.35 = $23.65 with the discount.

23.65 x 2 = $47.3 for two bats.

-----------------------------------------------------

Glove:

28 x 0.25 = $7 as the amount off.

28 - 7 = $21 with the discount.

-----------------------------------------------------

Together:

21 + 47.3 = $68.3 as the total before taxes.

-----------------------------------------------------

With Taxes:

68.3 x 0.055 = $3.7565 as the tax amount.

68.3 - 3.7565 = $64.5435

-----------------------------------------------------

Answer:

Not Rounded: $64.5435

Rounded: $64.54

Art [367]

Answer:

a. v(t)= -6.78 $e^{-16.33t}$ + 16.33 b. 16.33 m/s

Step-by-step explanation:

The differential equation for the motion is given by mv' = mg - γv. We re-write as mv' + γv = mg ⇒ v' + γv/m = g. ⇒ v' + kv = g. where k = γ/m.Since this is a linear first order differential equation, We find the integrating factor μ(t)= $e^{\int\limits^ {}k \, dt }$ = $e^{kt}$ . We now multiply both sides of the equation by the integrating factor.
