A family is driving 600 miles. Assuming they stop to get gas 3 times and eat 2 times, how many hours will it take them to reach

their destination? How would you estimate the time?

Lets assume that they are driving at an average of 70mph, and getting gas takes 10 minutes, and stopping to eat takes 30.

t=d/s

t=600/70
t=8.57 

Stopping to eat twice is 30 x 2 = 60 (another hour)

and Gas is 10 x 3 = 30 minutes (0.5 hours)

Total time is,

8.57+1+0.5 =10.07

So the trip will take approx 10.7 hours total.

(This is using my assumptions, from my experience!)

Students were surveyed about their favorite colors 1/4 of the students preferred read 1/8 of the students preferred blue and 3/5
Elanso [62]

Answer: the number of students that were surveyed is 40

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = total number of students that were surveyed about their favorite colors

1/4 of the students preferred red.

This means that the number of students that preferred red is 1/4 × x = x/4

1/8 of the students preferred blue.

This means that the number of students that preferred blue is 1/8 × x = x/8

The remaining number of students will be the total number of students - the sum of the number of students that preferred red and the number of students that preferred blue. It becomes

x - (x/4 + x/8) = x - 3x/8 = 5x/8

3/5 of the remaining students were for green. This means that the number of students that preferred green is 3/5 × 5x/8 = 3x/8

if 15 students prefer green, then

3x/8 = 15

3x = 120

x = 120/3 = 40 students

Please answer quickly I will give brainliest- Kelsey has a list of possible functions. Pick one of the g(x) functions below and
Marizza181 [45]

Answer:

1. Behavior

The g(x) is large and positive when x is large and positive;

The g(x) is large and negative when x is large and negative.

2. y-intercept= -18

3. The zeros are: -3, -2 and 3

Step-by-step explanation:

1. End behavior:

To find this you have to know the leading coefficient of the variable with the highest degree, and whether the degree is even or odd.  

(x + 3) = x positive, coefficient 1

(x + 2) = x positive, coefficient 1

(x − 3)=  x positive, coefficient 1

The coefficient is 1*1*1= 1 = positive

There are 3 x, so it will be x^3= odd

The behavior for odd and positive will be:

g(x) is + ∞ when x=>+∞

g(x) is -∞ when x=>-∞

or

The g(x) is large and positive when x is large and positive;

The g(x) is large and negative when x is large and negative.

2. Y-intercept

The y-intercept is the value of y when the graph touches the y-axis. The y-axis is located at x=0, so to find the y-intercept you need to put x=0 on the graph function. Some graphs can have two y-intercepts but the graph on the question only has one. The calculation will be:

y-intercept = g(0)= (0+3)(0+2)(0-3)

y-intercept = 3*2*-3

y-intercept= -18

3. Zeros

The zeros mean the value of x that will result as g(x) as zero. At this coordinate, the graph will touch the x-axis since g(0) is located on the x-axis. That is why this coordinate also called an x-intercept. The function is expressed as the product of three things. If any of them is 0, then the result will be 0. So we have 3 zeros

x_{1}+3=0

x_{1}=-3

x_{2} +2=0

x_{2}=-2

x_{3}-3=0

x_{3}=3

The zeros are: -3, -2 and 3
