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

What is the factored form of this expression? 4t2 − 27t + 18
seraphim [82]

Answer:

(4t − 3) (t − 6)

Step-by-step explanation:

Using AC method:

Given a quadratic ax² + bx + c, find factors of ac that add up to b.  Divide those factors by a and reduce.  The denominators become the coefficients and the numerators become the constants.

Here, a = 4, b = -27, and c = 18.

ac = 4 × 18 = 72

Factors of 72 that add up to -27: -3 and -24

Divide factors by a: -3/4 and -24/4

Reduce: -3/4 and -6/1

So the factored expression is:

(4t − 3) (t − 6)

Does this graph represent a function ? Why or why not ?
balu736 [363]

Answer:

D) It passes the horizontal line test

Step-by-step explanation:

In order for a line to represent a function it must pass the vertical line test.

To apply the horizontal line test, take a pencil and hold it vertically. Then, move it across the graph from left to right. If it intersects the line at 1 point everywhere along the line, then it is a function (functions can only have 1 Y value for every X value).
