Assume you drive 12,000 miles per year and that regular gas will cost $2.25/gallon and that premium gas will cost $0.30/gallon m

ore than regular gas.
What is the annual difference in gas cost for the following two vehicles?
Car 1: 30 miles per gallon on average with regular gas
Car 2: 25 miles per gallon on average with premium gas
A. $60 per eyarB. $180 per year
C. $324 per year
D. $548 per year

Answer: C. $324 per year

Step-by-step explanation:

Total number of miles driven per year is assumed to be 12000.

If Car 1 uses 30 miles per gallon on average with regular gas, then the number of gallons used for 12000 miles would be

12000/30 = 400 gallons

Regular gas will cost $2.25/gallon.

Cost of 400 gallons of regular gas would be

400 × 2.25 = $900

If Car 2 uses 25 miles per gallon on average with premium gas, then the number of gallons used for 12000 miles would be

12000/25 = 480 gallons

premium gas will cost $0.30/gallon more than regular gas. It means that cost of premium gas is

0.3 + 2.25 = $2.55/gallon

Cost of 480 gallons of premium gas would be

480 × 2.55 = $1224

The annual difference in gas cost for the two vehicles is

1224 - 900 = $324

Find the domain of the function f(x)=<img src="https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Csqrt%7Bx%5E3-16x%7D" id="TexFormula1" title="\sqrt{x^3

Anon25 [30]

Answer:

Please check the explanation.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the function

$f\left(x\right)=\sqrt{x^3-16x}$

We know that the domain of the function is the set of input or arguments for which the function is real and defined.

In other words,

Domain refers to all the possible sets of input values on the x-axis.

Now, determine non-negative values for radicals so that we can sort out the domain values for which the function can be defined.

$x^3-16x\ge 0$

as x³ - 16x ≥ 0

$\left(x+4\right)\left(x-4\right)\ge \:0$

Thus, identifying the intervals:

$-4\le \:x\le \:0\quad \mathrm{or}\quad \:x\ge \:4$

Thus,

The domain of the function f(x) is:

$x\left(x+4\right)\left(x-4\right)\ge \:0\quad :\quad \begin{bmatrix}\mathrm{Solution:}\:&\:-4\le \:x\le \:0\quad \mathrm{or}\quad \:x\ge \:4\:\\ \:\mathrm{Interval\:Notation:}&\:\left[-4,\:0\right]\cup \:[4,\:\infty \:)\end{bmatrix}$

And the Least Value of the domain is -4.

Answer:

8

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the mean, you add up all the numbers and divide it by the total number of numbers. So 4+5+7+8+11+13 is 48. There are 6 numbers. So 48/6=8.
