Answer:

16.065

Step-by-step explanation:

First you have to find 10 percent of 17.85 by dividing 17.85 by 10

10 / 17.85 = 1.785

then you subtract 1.785 by 17.85 to get the original price

Let the letter o represent the original price.

17.85 = o + (o*1.10)
17.85 = 2.10 * o
o = 17.85/2.10=8.5
The original price was $8.50

Alex73 [517]

Answer:

  a) -3 gallons per hour

  b) y = -3x +14

Step-by-step explanation:

Rate of change is computed by dividing the amount of change by the interval over which it occurred.

<h3>a)</h3>

Here the amount of gas decreased from 14 to 2 gallons, so a decrease of 14-2 = 12 gallons. That occurred over a 4-hour period, so the rate of change is (-12 gallons)/(4 hours) = -3 gallons/hour.

__

<h3>b)</h3>

The initial amount was 14 gallons, so the equation for the line describing remaining gas will be ...

  y = -3x +14 . . . . gas in the tank after x hours
