Answer:

Congressman Stevens will win the race

Step-by-step explanation:

Considering the margin of error, the possible outcomes for each candidate would be:

Congressman Stevens: from (54 - 3)% to (54+3)%

Challenger Jones: from (44 - 3)% to (44+3)%

Congressman Stevens: from 51% to 57%

Challenger Jones: from 41% to 47%

Therefore, even considering the margin of error, the pollster would be able to safely predict that Congressman Stevens will win the race.

Jed bought a generator that will run for 2 hours on a liter of gas. The gas tank on the generator is a rectangular prism with di
IceJOKER [234]

Answer:

The generator will run for 6 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, find the volume of the gas tank that is on the generator. I am told that the gas tank is a rectangular prism that has the dimensions of 20 cm, 15 cm, and 10cm.

Area of any prism = height * width * length

Area of prism = 20 cm * 15 cm * 10 cm = 3,000 cm cubed

I am told the important info that <u>1,000 cm cubed = 1 liter </u>

Therefore, 3,000 cm cubed = 3 liters

I am also told that the generator will run for 2 hours on 1 liter of gas

Lets make a ratio table:

Hours the generator will run for : liters of gas

                                                   2 : 1

                                                   6 : 3

the generator will run for 6 hours.

Consider the equation
earnstyle [38]

a) true

b) false

c) true

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3>let's determine the first statement</h3><h3>to determine x-intercept </h3><h3>substitute y=0</h3>

so,

8x-2y=24

8x-2.0=24

8x=24

x=3

therefore

the first statement is <u>true</u>

let's determine the second statement

<h3>to determine y-intercept </h3><h3>substitute x=0</h3>

so,

8x-2y=24

8.0-2y=24

-2y=24

y=-12

therefore

the second statement is <u>False</u>

to determine the third statements

<h3>we need to turn the given equation into this form</h3><h2>y=mx+b</h2><h3>let's solve:</h3>

8x-2y=24

-2y=-8x+24

y=4x-12

therefore,

the third statement is also <u>true</u>
