Ever since an automobile started to have a mechanical problem, every time it has burned a gallon of gasoline, it has traveled on

ly half as far as it did for the last gallon of gasoline it burned. If it traveled 40 miles for the first gallon of gasoline, it burned since the problem started, and if it has burned a total of 5 gallons of gasoline since the problem started, how many miles per gallon has the automobile averaged since the problem started?
A)
15 miles per gallon


B)
15.5 miles per gallon


C)
16 miles per gallon


D)
16.5 miles per gallon

B. The amount of distance it traveled for 5 gallons is 77.5 mi as 40+20+10+5+2.5 so divide that by 5 and you get 15.5

Use the figure below to identify angles and segment lengths
slega [8]

So Angle GEN and FED are vertical angles, which means that their angles are congruent. Therefore, Angle FED is 60°

Angle GEN and DEN are a linear pair, which means that they are supplementary angles (add up to 180). To find Angle DEN, we have to form the equation: 60 + DEN = 180

For this, all you have to do is subtract 60 on both sides, and your answer will be: DEN = 120°

scoray [572]

Answer: The angles of ΔA'B'C are congruent to the corresponding parts of the original triangle.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Triangle ABC was rotated 90 degrees clockwise. Then it underwent a dilation centered at the origin with a scale factor of 4.

A rotation is a rigid transformation that creates congruent images but dilation is not a rigid transformation, it creates similar images but not congruent.

Also, the corresponding angles of similar triangles are congruent.

Therefore, The angles of ΔA'B'C are congruent to the corresponding parts of the original triangle.

NASA is conducting an experiment to find out the fraction of people who black out at G forces greater than 6. Step 1 of 2 : Supp
Andru [333]

Answer:

The estimate of the proportion of people who pass out at more than 6 Gs is 0.279.

Step-by-step explanation:

Estimate of the proportion of people who pass out at more than 6 Gs.

Number of people who passed out divided by the size of the sample.

We have that:

Sample of 502 people, 140 passed out at G forces greater than 6. So the estimate is:

p = \frac{140}{502} = 0.279

The estimate of the proportion of people who pass out at more than 6 Gs is 0.279.

"Trigonometric Models" (50 POINTS)<br> Is my graph right?
ch4aika [34]

Answer:

Yes, this graph is absolutely right for the function y = 2\sin(2x)-3.

Step-by-step explanation:

firstly we will calculate amplitude, period, phase shift, and vertical shift.

Use the standard form a\sin(bx-c)+d to calculate the values of amplitude, period, phase shift, vertical shift.

here a = 2

     b = 2

     c = 0

    d = -3

Amplitude = |a|  = 2

period = \frac{2\pi}{|b|}

           = \frac{2\pi}{2} = \pi

phase shift = \frac{c}{b} = 0

and vertical shift = d = -3

so, by using this information, if we plot the graph then the graph obtained will be same as the given graph.
