Answer:

440miles

Step-by-step explanation:

We are told that mileage of 165 = 3/8 of a tank of gas

as inverse 5/8 would be left and the product we seek to add to 165.

We find a ratio to distribute 165 as 3/8

First we double and find 6/8 is an even number and = 330 miles.

= 3/4 ratio and that is 6:8 so 2 extra we seek to make a full tank before we add is 1/3 of 330 miles as 1/3 = 2/8 to make this balance only in this question is this possible as we call it distribution like percentage 10% added to 100 would always be 10 just like it is added, but finding 10% of 110 is different.

Therefore so would 1/3 afterwards once we find 1/3 = 2/8 is not the same as finding 1/3 after we find the full tank.

1/3 of 330 = 110

110 +330 = 440miles

I hope that helps you see how to work out close range distribution.

As now not that it's asking you to see 1/3 of 440miles but in same principal as explained about the 10% theory, you see 1/3 of 440 miles is now more than 110. it is 1/3 x 440 = 146.66 = 1/3. and so we can prove distribution is possible and say 2/8 = 1/3 even though in relation to 1 as a whole number its not true. It's only true in distribution.

musickatia [10]

Answer:

  • 100
  • 489.190
  • 10,000
  • 48,919,000

Step-by-step explanation:

Each factor of 10 in the divisor causes the decimal point to move 1 place to the left.

a) The decimal point has moved 2 places to the left. The divisor is 10^2 = 100.

b) The divisor is 10^3, so the decimal point will move 3 places to the left.

  489.190

c) The decimal point has moved 4 places to the left, so the divisor is 10^4 = 10,000.

d) The divisor is 10^5, so the decimal point in the quotient if 5 places to the left of where it is in the dividend. Moving the quotient's decimal point 5 places to the right gives ...

  48,919,000

<em>Additional comment</em>

An exponent signifies repeated multiplication. Here, we're concerned with repeatedly multiplying (or dividing) by factors of 10. The exponent indicates the number of factors: 10·10 = 10^2 = 100. It also matches the number of zeros following the 1 in the product. 1000 = 10^3 has 3 zeros after the 1, for example.

Please help me solve this!!!!!!
BabaBlast [244]

Answer:

C. 9

Step-by-step explanation:

y = -4x^2 + 2kx

subtitute 3:

y = -4(9)^2 + 2k(9)

y = -4(81) + 18k

let y = 0

=> 0 = -324 + 18k

=> k = 324/18 = 9

this is my calculations hope it helps
