Answer: So Lucía has 3.5 hours left, and need 1/2 of an hour (or 0.5 hours) to do one oil change.

a) If you divide the total time she has by the time she needs for each oil change, then you got the total number of oil changes that she can do in that time; this is:

3.5/0.5 = 7

So she can do 7 oil changes in 3.5 hours.

b) If she can complete two car inspections in the same amount of time it takes her to complete one oil change, then she can do two car inspections in 0.5 hours.

2*car inspections = 0.5 hours

car inspection = (0.5/2) hours

then one car inspection will take 0.5/2 = 0.25 hours.

c) Two ways to solve this:

1) Do the same that we did in a), this is: 3.5/0.25 = 14

she can do 14 car inspections.

2) If in 3.5 hours, she can do 7 oil changes, and in the time she does an oil change, she can do two car inspections, then in 3.5 hours she can do 7*2 car inspections, and 7*2 = 14

Answer:

a. 7 oil changes

b. 15 minutes (1/4 hour)

c. 14 inspections

Step-by-step explanation:

a. Fist, we need to know that .5 of an hour is 1/2 an hour.

Then divide the 3.5 hours by how longs it takes to complete one oil change.

3.5/.5= 7 oil changes

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

b. 2 inspections=same amount of time for an oil change

If it takes 1/2 an hour to complete the oil change and you can do 2 inspection in that time, divide 1/2 an hour by 2.

1/2 hour / 2 = 15 per inspection

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

c. So now that we know EACH inspection takes 15 minutes, we just need to divide the amount of time she has left by the amount of time it takes to do an inspection.

3.5 hours / 15 minutes = 14 inspections

2. Graph the solution set to the following inequality:<br> 7-y&lt;2x
nirvana33 [79]

Step-by-step explanation:

First solve for y,

7-y<2x

7-2x<y

y>-2x+7

your y intercept would be (0,7)

and your slope would be -2/1 so, you go down 2 and 1 to the right.

Since this is a greater than symbol, we have to shade above the line and the line would also be a dotted line.

What is the exact volume of this cone?
Studentka2010 [4]

Answer:

  (b)  80/3π in³

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a circular cone is given by ...

  V = 1/3πr²h . . where r is the radius (half the diameter) and h is the height

Your cone has r = 4 inches and h = 5 inches, so its volume is ...

  V = (1/3)π(4 in)²(5 in) = 80/3π in³

The volume of the cone is exactly (80/3)π cubic inches.

What is the difference between x and dx?
N76 [4]

This response is based upon your having had some background in calculus. "dx" is not introduced before that.

Take a look at the sample function y = f(x) = x^2 + 9. Here x is the independent variable; the dependent variable y changes with x.

Now, for a big jump: we consider finding the area under a curve (graph) between x = a and x = b. We subdivide that interval [a,b] into n vertical slices of area. Each of those slices has its own area: f(x)*dx, where dx represents the width of such subarea. f(x)*dx is the actual subarea. To find the total area under the curve f(x) between x= a and x = b, we add up all of these individual subareas between x = a and x = b. Note that the subinterval width is

b-a

dx = ---------- , and that dx becomes smaller and smaller as the number of

n subintervals increases.

Once again, this all makes sense only if you've begun calculus (particularly integral calculus). Do not try to relate it to earlier math courses.
