He would need 11.1 gallons of gas if he was/would drive 296 miles.

12 divided by 320 = .0375

.0375 x 296 = 11.1 Gallons of Gas needed to drive the distance.

Well, to solve this, first of all, you will need to compare. So, Abdul drove 320 MILES using 12 GALLONS, how many gallons will he need to drive 296 MILES. This can be represented mathematically by;
320 miles=12 gallons
296 miles=x
I replaced the unknown value with the letter x to make it easier to identify. Anyway, you need to cross and multiply. So 296 will multiply 12 and 320 will multiply x.
296 multiplied by 12 is 3552 and 320 multiplied by x is 320x. So;
3552=320x
Divide the both sides by 320 to reveal the value of x. 320 divided by 320 is x. And 3552 divided by 320 is 11.1. So;
x=11.1 gallons of gas

Final price=original price*(100%- discount 1)(100%-discount 2)
original price=$40
discount 1=25%⇒ 100 - discount 1=100%-25%=75%=75/100=0.75
discount 2=15%⇒ 100 - discount 2=100%-12%=85%=85/100=0.85

original price=$40(0.75)(0.85)=$25.5

Answer: $25.5

How do i find the inverse function of h(x) =(5-2x^2)/(3x+10)

sergeinik [125]

Inverse function: you need to exchange the position of x and y, in other words,

x = (5-2y^2)/(3y+10) , then, if you need a representation of y with respect to x, then you need to perform some math.

Hey you!<br><br> I think I need your help with this one - Thanks~

Hey Gary!

The volume of a cylinder is PiR^2h, or 3.14(r^2)h.
Let's define our measures.
Pi is 3.14 (simplified). However, our answer is requested in terms of Pi.
Our radius is 5.
Our height is 14.
Let's plug in our numbers.

5^2 • 14 • Pi
5^2 = 25
25 • 14 = 350.

350Pi is our answer.
However, rememver that we need to end our answer in units cubed, as we are using a 3-dimensional figure. Our answer is 350Pi in^3.
Your answer is B.)

I hope this helps!
