Before the mechanic worked on it, it cost .09 (cents) per mile. After the mechanic worked on it, it cost .08 (cents) per mile. Divide the number of gallons by the miles in each case and multiply the result by 4.
Answer:
Bess has been keeping track of the storm for 14 hours.
Step-by-step explanation:
The tropical storm has been moving at 15 miles per hour.
Bess recorded that the storm moved 135 miles yesterday and 75 miles today. Total distance covered by storm is
The relationship between distance speed and time is defined as
Therefore, Bess has been keeping track of the storm for 14 hours.
Answer: Choice C and Choice D
========================================================
Explanation:
- Choice A doesn't work because it the $1 should be $7 instead.
- Choice B doesn't work because it should be Elena spending $7 total on 3 notebooks and a $1 pen. The x is the amount per notebook.
- Choice C does work. If x is the number of grapes Noah gives each friend, then 3x is the total amount Noah gives over. Then 3x+1 is the number of grapes total. That +1 at the end is the grape Noah eats. We end up with 3x+1 = 7 because Noah starts off with 7 grapes.
- Choice D works also. The x is the number of hours for math, science and history each. So 3x is the combined time of those three classes. Add on 1 to get 3x+1 to represent all 7 hours, ie 3x+1 = 7.
- Choice E does not work. If it was her spending $7 on 3 markers and a $1 pen, then it would work.
Comparing to the standard equation, the parabola with a vertex at (-2,0) is given by:
y = (x + 2)²
<h3>What is the equation of a parabola given it’s vertex?</h3>
The equation of a quadratic function, of vertex (h,k), is given by:
y = a(x - h)² + k
In which a is the leading coefficient.
In this problem, we have that h = -2 and k = 0, and all the options have leading coefficient a = 1, hence the equation is:
y = (x + 2)²
