For the first one his car used 8/340 or 2/85 gallons for one mile.
After the fix, his car 7/350 or 1/50 gallons for one mile.
Then you subtract 1/50-2/85 to get (17-10)/850 or 7/850.
You multiply this by 4 to get 28/850 which is $0.0329411
Since it is asking for cents you multiply by 100 to get approximately 3 cents.
D.34 more weeks left of saving because you have $166 more dollars to go after your $50 dollar scholarship program and the 16 weeks of saving $84 dollars.
Answers:
The formula is [f(-1)-f(-4)]/[3]
The value of f(-1) is 3
The value of f(-4) is -3
The average rate of change is 2
==============================================
Explanation:
For the first blank, we use the formula
[ f(b) - f(a) ]/[ b - a ]
where 'a' and 'b' are the endpoints for the x interval
In this case, a = -4 and b = -1. When you plug those values into the formula above, you get...
[ f(b) - f(a) ]/[ b - a]
[ f(-1) - f(-4)]/[ -1 - (-4) ]
[ f(-1) - f(-4)]/[ -1+4 ]
[ f(-1) - f(-4)]/[ 3 ]
which is why the answer is choice C for the first blank
-------------------------------------------
To compute the value of f(-1), we draw a vertical line through -1 on the x axis. This vertical line crosses the diagonal function graph at the point (-1,3). The y value of this point is what we want. Plugging in x = -1 leads to y = 3. This is why f(-1) = 3
If you want, you can draw a horizontal line through (-1,3) and you'll see it touching 3 on the y axis.
-------------------------------------------
Follow similar steps as above to compute f(-4). Draw a vertical line through x = -4 on the x axis. Mark the point where the vertical line crosses the diagonal line. This point is (-4,-3). Optionally draw a horizontal line over til you hit the y axis and you'll find that y = -3 corresponds to x = -4
This is why f(-4) = -3
-------------------------------------------
We'll use the last three sections to compute the average rate of change. Everything combines together building up to this moment.
From the first part, we had the formula
[ f(b) - f(a) ]/[ b - a ]
[ f(-1) - f(-4)]/[ 3 ]
We can replace the "f(-1)" with 3 since we found that f(-1) = 3
Similarly, f(-4) = -3 so we can replace the "f(-4)" with -3
Doing those replacements and simplifying leads to...
[ f(-1) - f(-4)]/[ 3 ]
[ 3 - (-3)]/[ 3 ]
[ 3 + 3]/[ 3 ]
6/3
2
So the average rate of change is 2
Note: because the entire graph is a straight line, the average rate of change for any interval a < x < b is going to be equal to the slope m. In this case, the slope of the line is m = 2/1 = 2. We move up 2 units each time we move to the right 1 unit along the diagonal line.
Answer:
24:26 or 12:13
Step-by-step explanation:
Ratios can be better understood if you read 24:26 as: Emily read 24 fiction books for every 26 books.
The question tells us Emily read 24 fiction books and 2 nonfiction books. We know she read 24 fiction books so that is the first part of our ratio. Now, they want to know how many total books did she read. Well, she read 24 fiction and 2 nonfiction. 24+2 = 26. 26 books total! So now we have the second part of our ratio and end up with the ratio of 24:26. But now, we have to simplify it. Simplifying ratios is like simplyfing fractions. You have to find their greatest common factor. The greatest common factor of 24 and 26 is 2. Now you divide both number by their greatest common factor (2). Finally, we end up with the ratio of 12:13.

Tgα = tan(α) = sqrt(2)/1 = opposite/ adjacent
opposite = sqrt(2)
adjacent = 1
hypotenuse = sqrt(opposite^2 + adjacent^2)
= sqrt(sqrt(2)^2 + 1^2) = sqrt(3)
sin(α) = opposite/hypotenuse
= sqrt(2)/sqrt(3)
cos(α) = adjacent/hypotenuse
= 1/sqrt(3)
now we can calculate the value of
5sin²α+3cos²α / 3sin²α-5cos²α
... do the math
