Answer:

-25.17 miles per gallon.

-It costs $49.02 to fill your tank.

Step-by-step explanation:

-To find the miles per gallon, you can use a rule of three:

17.2 gallons →  433 miles

    1 gallon   →        x

x=(1*433)/17.2= 25.17

If your gas tank holds 17.2 gallons, you car can drive 25.17 miles per gallon.

-To find the cost to fill your tank, you have to multiply the price per gallon for the amount of gallons that the tank can hold:

$2.85*17.2=$49.02

It costs $49.02 to fill your tank.

Solve the system of equations 4x+5y=-1 and -5x-8y=10 by combining the equations.
Nimfa-mama [501]

The solution of the equation are as follows:

x = 6 and y = -5

<h3 />

<h3>How to solve the system of equation?</h3>

4x + 5y = -1

-5x - 8y = 10

Therefore,

20x + 25y = -5

-20x - 32y = 40

-7y = 35

y = -5

Hence,

4x + 5(-5) = -1

4x - 25 = -1

4x = -1 + 25

4x = 24

x = 24 / 4

x = 6

A single die is rolled twice. Find the probability of rolling an even number the first time and a number greater than 3 the seco
IceJOKER [234]

Events

• A: an even number is rolled in the first time

,

• B: a number greater than 3 is rolled the second time

The probability of rolling an even number is:

\begin{gathered} P(A)=\frac{\text{ number of favorable outcomes}}{\text{ total possible outcomes}} \\ P(A)=\frac{3}{6} \\ P(A)=\frac{1}{2} \end{gathered}

The probability of rolling a number greater than 3 is:

\begin{gathered} P(B)=\frac{\text{ number of favorable outcomes}}{\text{ total possible outcomes}} \\ P(B)=\frac{3}{6} \\ P(B)=\frac{1}{2} \end{gathered}

Events A and B are independent, then the probability of one happening after the other is:

\begin{gathered} \text{ P(A and B) = }P(A)\cdot P(B) \\ \text{ Substituting with the values previously found:} \\ \text{ P(A and B) = }\frac{1}{2}\cdot\frac{1}{2} \\ \text{ P(A and B) = }\frac{1}{4} \end{gathered}

Austin keeps a right conical basin for the birds in his garden as represented in the diagram. The basin is 40 centimeters deep,
Lina20 [59]

The shortest distance between the tip of the cone and its rim exits 51.11cm.

<h3>What is the shortest distance between the tip of the cone and its rim?​</h3>

If you draw a line along the middle of the cone, you'd finish up with two right triangles and the line even bisects the angle between the sloping sides. The shortest distance between the tip of the cone and its rim exists in the hypotenuse of a right triangle with one angle calculating 38.5°. So, utilizing trigonometry and allowing x as the measurement of the shortest distance between the tip of the cone and its rim.

Cos 38.5 = 40 / x

Solving the value of x, we get

Multiply both sides by x

$\cos \left(38.5^{\circ}\right) x=\frac{40}{x} x

$\cos \left(38.5^{\circ}\right) x=40

Divide both sides by $\cos \left(38.5^{\circ}\right)$

$\frac{\cos \left(38.5^{\circ}\right) x}{\cos \left(38.5^{\circ}\right)}=\frac{40}{\cos \left(38.5^{\circ}\right)}

simplifying the above equation, we get

$x=\frac{40}{\cos \left(38.5^{\circ}\right)}

x = 51.11cm

The shortest distance between the tip of the cone and its rim exits 51.11cm.

Karl set out to Alaska on his truck. The amount of fuel remaining in the truck's tank (in liters) as a function of distance driv
Stells [14]

Answer:

500 kilometers

Step-by-step explanation:

The fuel (y) Karl has in his car is a function of the distance (x) Karl travelled. The amount of fuel (y) is dependent on the distance (x) Karl travelled.

On the y-axis, we have amount of fuel.

On the x-axis, we have distance travelled.

At the time Karl travelled when he had 200 liters of fuel (y) remaining in his car, he had travelled a distance (x) of 500 kilometers.

We know this by looking at the graph given. When x (distance) = 500, y (fuel) = 200.
