Answer: 14gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

12gallons/144miles = 1gallon/12miles

Therefore 6gallons = 12*6 = 72miles.

In order to cover 240miles, she will need 240/12 = 20gallons.

20-6 = 14gallons

She will need 14gallons of gas more.

Let's define both terms first. Inductive reasoning is a conclusion that you get out of a series of observation. However, this may be true or not. But for deductive reasoning, you reach a conclusion that you get out of a series of observations that are also supported by facts. These are all true.

Since all the statements are based on facts, this is a deductive reasoning.

The answer is B. deductive.

Hey!

Explanation:

↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓

First, remove parenthesis.

$7i4i$

Secondly, multiple by the numbers.

$7*4=28$

$-28ii$

Third, apply exponents rule.

$-28i^2$

$i^2=-1$

$-28(-1)$

Finally, refine.

$=28\\$

A motorcycle can travel 60 miles per gallon. Approximately how many gallons of fuel will the motorcycle need to travel 40 km?

Semenov [28]

The first thing to note is since one gallon= 60 miles then 1/2 gallon= 30 miles, now I know 1/2 is not an answer but it is easiest to decrease in moderate amounts. 1/2 gallon= 48 Km so we are close, and 1/2=0.5 so if we brought it down to 0.42 we would have 25.2 miles and 25.2 miles = 40.32. The question wants to know the approximate number and 40.32 is the closest we are going to get so the answer is 0.42

Use complete sentences to explain the process of converting a logarithmic equation to its equivalent exponential form to obtain

DanielleElmas [232]

Knowing that logarithm functions and exponential functions are inverse to each other, the procees to convert a logarithmic equation to its equivalent is to perform all the operations to set an equation of the typ:

$log _{b}x = y$ ,

then invert to show it equivalent form:

$x= b^{y}$ .

With that you have solved the equation for x.
