Answer:

10.

Step-by-step explanation:

10 is the correct answer. Divide the total number of gallons by the amount added each hour. Remember that dividing is the same as multiplying by the reciprocal. Reduce answer if necessary.  

8 ÷  4 /5 =  8 /1 ×  5 /4 =  40/ 4 = 10

tiny-mole [99]

Answer: The team won 100 games and losses 28 games

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of games won denoted by x and the games lost is denoted by y .

Given : A minor league baseball team plays 128 games in a season.

Team won 16 more than three times as many games as they lost.

Then, the system of equations, we have

x+y=128-------(1)\\\\x=3y+16------------(2)

We can rewrite equation (2) as x-3y=16----------------(3)

Now, Eliminate equation (3) from (1), we get

y-(-3y)=128-16\\\\\Rightarrow\ 4y=112\\\\\Rightarrow\ y=\dfrac{112}{4}=28

Substitute the value of y in (2), we get

x=3(28)+16=84+16=100

Hence, the team won 100 games and losses 28 games.

Answer:

Part 1) The domain of the quadratic function is the interval  (-∞,∞)

Part 2) The range is the interval  (-∞,1]

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

f(x)=-x^2+14x-48

This is a quadratic equation (vertical parabola) open downward (the leading coefficient is negative)

step 1

Find the domain

The domain of a function is the set of all possible values of x

The domain of the quadratic function is the interval

(-∞,∞)

All real numbers

step 2

Find the range

The range of a function is the complete set of all possible resulting values of y, after we have substituted the domain.

we have a vertical parabola open downward

The vertex is a maximum

Let

(h,k) the vertex of the parabola

so

The range is the interval

(-∞,k]

Find the vertex

f(x)=-x^2+14x-48

Factor -1 the leading coefficient

f(x)=-(x^2-14x)-48

Complete the square

f(x)=-(x^2-14x+49)-48+49

f(x)=-(x^2-14x+49)+1

Rewrite as perfect squares

f(x)=-(x-7)^2+1

The vertex is the point (7,1)

therefore

The range is the interval

(-∞,1]

PLEASE HELP MEEEEeeee
skelet666 [1.2K]

Answer:

D. 2^7

Step-by-step explanation:

2^3 x 2^4 would equal 128. So, if you do the math for all of them:

A isn't correct because it equals 16.

B isn't correct because it equals 4096.

C isn't correct because it equals 16384.

D is correct because 2^7 is 128.

Hope this helped!
