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

Answer:
195 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
The relationship between the horizontal distance, angle, and vertical height is given by ...
Tan = Opposite/Adjacent
Referring to the attached diagram, we have ...
tan(16°) = BT/MB
tan(25°) = BK/MB
Solving for BT and BK, we can describe their difference as ...
BT = MB·tan(16°)
BK = MB·tan(25°)
BK -BT = 35 = MB(tan(25°) -tan(16°))
Dividing by the coefficient of MB gives ...
MB = 35/(tan(25°) -tan(16°)) = 35/0.179562
MB = 195 . . . feet

Answer:
graph it
Step-by-step explanation:
4 x^2 + 28 x + 49 = 0
Divide both sides by 4:
x^2 + 7 x + 49/4 = 0
Write the left hand side as a square:
(x + 7/2)^2 = 0
Take the square root of both sides:
x + 7/2 = 0
Subtract 7/2 from both sides:
Answer: x = -7/2
