For example: 35 divided by 5 is 7. So to check with multiplication, just think 7 times 5 is what? 35. This is the same formula for everything.
Hope this helps!!

Answer: To check the division problem , there are steps

Step 1. First perform the division problem.

Step 2. Multiply the quotient and the divisor.

Step 3. Add the remainder to the product of quotient and divisor.

Step 4. The final answer should be equal to the dividend.

For example to divide 65 by 2

Here, Dividend=65 , Divisor=2

After perform division, we get Quotient=32 and remainder=1

To check:-

32×2+1=64+1=65→ Dividend

Jill has been watching the squirrels that live in her neighborhood. The number of squirrels changes each week. n f(n). 1 8. 2 12

qaws [65]

Answer: D) $f(n)=8(1.5)^{n-1}$

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given table we can see that this is not representing a linear function as the rate of change is not constant.

So it can be exponential growth function $A(b)^{n-1}$ , where A is the initial amount , b is the multiplicative rate of growth and n is the time period in weeks.

Now here at n=1 , f(n)=8

Therefore, A=8

Now, for n=2

$f(2)=8(b)^{2-1}\\\Rightarrow12=8b\\\Rightarrow\ b=\frac{12}{8}\\\Rightarrow\ b=1.5$

By substitute the values of A and b in the above equation, we get the equation $f(n)=8(1.5)^{n-1}$

Therefore, the function best shows the relationship between n and f(n) is

$f(n)=8(1.5)^{n-1}$ , where n is the number of weeks.

Jayden is driving on a long road trip. He currently has 11 gallons of gas in his car. Each hour that he drives, his car uses up

DENIUS [597]

Answer:

a. 8 gallons

b. (11-0.75t) gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

a. Here in this question, we are told that the total amount of fuel in the fuel tank is 11 gallons and the car consumes 0.75 gallon per hour. We are interested in knowing the amount of fuel left in the tank after driving for four hours.

We proceed as follows;

Since 0.75 gallon is consumed in an hour, the amount of fuel consumed in 4 hours would be the amount consumed in an hour * 4 hours

Mathematically, that would be 0.75 * 4 = 3 gallon

Now, the amount of fuel left is simply the difference between the initial amount of fuel in the tank minus the amount of fuel present after 4 hours.

That would be; 11 - 3 = 8 gallons

b. Like above, we want to know the amount of fuel left after t hours.

Since 0.75 is used up per hour, the amount used up in t hours would be 0.75 * t = 0.75t

Now, the amount of fuel that would be left in the tank would be the difference between what we had initially and what was used up.

Mathematically, that would be 11- 0.75t
