Answer: The Millers need 15 gallons of water for 6 minutes.


Lets start by finding how much water is needed for 1 min shower. 
<span>
25 gallons of water is used for 10 min shower:

</span>10 mins = 25 gallons <span>

To find 1 min shower, we will divide the 25 gallons of water by 10. 
</span><span>
10 mins = 25 gallons            </span>← Divide by 10 on both sides<span>
÷ 10           ÷ 10
1 min = 2.5 gallons

Now that we know the Millers need 2.5 gallons for every 1 minute of shower, we can find 6 minutes of shower by multiplying by 6.

1 min = 2.5 gallons</span>         ← Multiply 6 on both sides<span>
   x6           x6
6 min = 15 gallons

Answer: The Millers need 15 gallons of water for 6 minutes.

Determine whether or not the equation shows a proportional relationship. If it does, identify the unit rate (constant of proport
sergiy2304 [10]

Answer:

y = 25·x shows a proportional relationship

a = 5·x + 5 does not show a proportional relationship

m = 105.25·n shows a proportional relationship

Step-by-step explanation:

An equation that shows a proportional relationship is of the form, y = kx

Where;

k = The constant of proportionality = y/x

Therefore, the equation, y = 25·x shows a proportional relationship

The constant of proportionality = k = y/x = 25

Similarly, the equation m = 105.25·n shows a proportional relationship

The constant of proportionality = k = m/n = 105.25

When the equation shows a proportional relationship, the graph of the equation passes through the origin, therefore, the equation of the form, y = m·x + c, where c = the y-intercept > 0, the equation does not show a proportional relationship

The equation a = 5·x + 5, which is of the form, y = m·x + c, with c = 5 > 0, therefore, does not show a proportional relationship.

Therefore;

y = 25·x shows a proportional relationship

m = 105.25·n shows a proportional relationship

a = 5·x + 5 does not show a proportional relationship.

-4x^4 - 3x^3 - 29x^2 - 114 where x= -4
tatiyna

Answer: -1410

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's start by subbing in -4 for x

-4x^4 - 3x^3 - 29x^2 - 114\\-4(-4)^4-3(-4)^3-29(-4)^2-114

Now we can solve

-4(256)-3(-64)-29(16)-114\\-1024--192-464-114\\-832-464-114\\-1296-114\\-1410
