I think it’s 3 (900 cm2) sorry if it’s wrong.
Hi there!

Find the value of 8 by substituting in -18 for g(x):
-18 = 2x - 8
Add 8 to both sides:
-10 = 2x
Divide both sides by 2:
-10/2 = 2x/2
x = -5
Answer:
A. The rate is -2 each hour
B. It is decreasing, as the hours increase, the gallons decrease
The inequality is t < 55
<em><u>Solution</u></em><em><u>:</u></em>
Given that, To qualify for the championship a runner must complete the race in less than 55 minutes
Let "t" represent the time in minutes of a runner who qualifies for the championship
Here it is given that the value of t is less than 55 minutes
Therefore, "t" must be less than 55, so that the runner qualifies the championship
<em><u>This is represented by inequality:</u></em>

The above inequality means, that time taken to complete the race must be less than 55 for a runner to qualify
Hence the required inequality is t < 55
We can adjust the data by adding 4 to everything before we calculate the statistics. Or we can calculate the statistics on the given data and just add 4 to everything at the end. We'll get the same answer either way.
Let's sort the seven data points: 5 5 5 7 7 9 10
Those add up to 48 so the mean is 48/7 = 6.9
The one in the middle is 7 so the median = 7
The mode is the most common one, mode = 5
The range is the difference between max and min, so range = 10 - 5 = 5
In the second week we add four to everything. Since that adds four to the min and max, the range doesn't change.
Answer: mean=10.9, median=11, mode=9, range=5
