Answer: C and E

Step-by-step explanation:

The plane starts at 32,460 feet.

It then ascends 1645 feet. Ascending means it's going up higher. So we add.

32,460 + 1645 = 34,105 (C)

From here (34,105 feet) the plane descends by 3/5 of it's height. Descending means it's lowering. So we subtract.

But first we have to figure out how much we are subtracting.

3/5 is equal to .6

Multiply to find 3/5 of current height.

34,105 × .6 = 20,463

So the plane descends by 20,463 feet.

34,105 - 20,463 = 13,642 feet (E)

Solve the problem. When going more than 38 miles per hour, the gas mileage of a certain car fits the model where x is the speed
Lubov Fominskaja [6]

Answer:

73 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

The question seems to be incomplete because the model is missing, I found a similar question with the addition of the model, so if we can solve it (see attached image).

We have that the model would be:

y = 43.81 - 0.395 * x

We need to solve for x, if y = 15

Replacing:

15 = 43.81 - 0.395 * x

Solving for x we have:

0.395 * x = 43.81 - 15

0.395 * x = 28.81

x = 28.81 / 0.395

x = 72.9

We are asked to round to the nearest number therefore x = 73.

The car will average 15 miles per gallon at the speed of 73 miles per hour.

I need help with a math equation, it’s due by 3:00.
Vilka [71]

Answer:

         2x        -7

2x      4x²      -14x

-1       -2x        +7

Step-by-step explanation:

4x²-16x+7 factors as

(2x-7)(2x-1)

So the grid would be:

         2x        -7

2x      4x²      -14x

-1       -2x        +7
