Answer:
a) -3 gallons per hour
b) y = -3x +14
Step-by-step explanation:
Rate of change is computed by dividing the amount of change by the interval over which it occurred.
<h3>a)</h3>
Here the amount of gas decreased from 14 to 2 gallons, so a decrease of 14-2 = 12 gallons. That occurred over a 4-hour period, so the rate of change is (-12 gallons)/(4 hours) = -3 gallons/hour.
__
<h3>b)</h3>
The initial amount was 14 gallons, so the equation for the line describing remaining gas will be ...
y = -3x +14 . . . . gas in the tank after x hours
Answer:
X<2
I think is that never the less could be wrong
Answer:
x = 27
General Formulas and Concepts:
<u>Pre-Algebra</u>
- Order of Operations: BPEMDAS
<u>Algebra I</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define equation</u>
4x + 10 = 3x + 37
<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>
- Subtract 3x on both sides: x + 10 = 37
- Subtract 10 on both sides: x = 27
<u>Step 3: Check</u>
<em>Plug in x to verify it's a solution.</em>
- Substitute: 4(27) + 10 = 3(27) + 37
- Multiply: 108 + 10 = 81 + 37
- Add: 118 = 118
And we have our final answer!
40÷30s? I think that is the answer, but I'm not completely sure...
Havent done this in years but i think it would just be 12
