Answer:

c. t = 18; the Chang family has been driving for 18 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

D(t) = 2,280 - 60t

Find t when D(t) = 1,200

D(t) = 2,280 - 60t

1200 = 2280 - 60t

Subtract 2280 from both sides of the equation

1200 - 2,280 = 2280 - 60t - 2,280

- 1080 = - 60t

Divide both sides by -60

- 1080 / -60 = - 60t / -60

18 = t

t = 18

This means the Chang family has been driving for 18 hours

c. t = 18; the Chang family has been driving for 18 hours

Leni [432]
In logarithm, inverse operations are applied.
log_3{14} =  log_3{7} +   log_3{14} \\ log_3{14} = 0.631 + 1.771 \\log_3{14} = 2.402

At the farm, Justin picks 3 bushels of fruits. The bushels weigh 8 1/4 pounds, 6 1/2 pounds, and 6 5/8 pounds. What is the avera
blondinia [14]
ANSWER

Average \: Weight =  7 \frac{1}{8}  \: bushels


EXPLANATION

To find the average weight per bushel, we add all the three weight and divide by 3.


Average \: Weight =  \frac{8 \frac{1}{4}  + 6 \frac{1}{2} + 6 \frac{5}{8}  }{3}


We convert all the mixed numbers to improper fraction to obtain,


Average \: Weight =  \frac{ \frac{33}{4}  +  \frac{13}{2} + \frac{53}{8}  }{3}


The least common denominator for the fractions in the numerator is 8.


This implies that,

Average \: Weight =  \frac{ \frac{66 + 52 + 53}{8} }{3}

This simplifies to


Average \: Weight =  \frac{ \frac{171}{8} }{3}


This gives us,

Average \: Weight =   \frac{171}{24}



Average \: Weight =   \frac{57}{8}


Average \: Weight =  7 \frac{1}{8}
