Answer:

32 miles the car travel per gallon.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : A car travels 480 miles on 15 gallons of gasoline.

To find : How many miles does the car travel per gallon.

Solution : We have given

A car travels on 15 gallons = 480 miles .

A car travels on 1 gallons = $\frac{480}{15}$ .

A car travels on 1 gallons = 32 miles.

We can say 32 miles the car travel per gallon.

Therefore, 32 miles the car travel per gallon.

You take 480 and divide it by 15, because it says per gallon. so then if the car goes 480 miles with 15 gallons, you have to figure out how to find per gallon. you divide 480/15 and your answer is 32

How are the two functions f(x) = 0.7(6)x and g(x) = 0.7(6)–x related to each other?

Harlamova29_29 [7]

The answer
f(x) = 0.7(6)x = f(x) = 0.7(6)^x, and g(x) = 0.7(6)–x= g(x) = 0.7(6)^-x=1/0.7(6)^x
so 
g(x) =1/0.7(6)^x=1 /f(x)

 the relationship between f and g are g(x) =1 /f(x) or g(x) . f(x) = 1

Old McDonald had a farm. In one pen the old farmer had chickens and bulls together. In that pen there were 40 animals in total,

SVETLANKA909090 [29]

Answer:

There are 15 numbers of chicken and 25 numbers of bulls.

Step-by-step explanation:

The pen had chickens and bulls. The pen contains 40 animals in total. The number of legs in the pen is 130 .

Let

a = number of chicken

b = number of bull

a + b = 40................(i)

A chicken has 2 legs and a bull has 4 legs.

The total legs can be represented as

2a + 4b = 130...........(ii)

combine the equation

a + b = 40................(i)

2a + 4b = 130...........(ii)

a = 40 - b

insert the value of a in equation(ii)

2(40 - b) + 4b = 130

80 - 2b + 4b = 130

80 + 2b = 130

2b = 130 - 80

2b = 50

divide both sides by 2

b = 50/2

b = 25

Insert the value of b in equation (i)

a + b = 40

a + 25 = 40

a = 40 - 25

a = 15

There are 15 numbers of chicken and 25 numbers of bulls.

Write an explicit formula for a_n, the nth term of the sequence 4, -20, 100, ...

saw5 [17]

Answer:

$a_{n}$ = 4 $(-5)^{n-1}$

Step-by-step explanation:

There is a common ratio r between consecutive terms , that is

r = - 20 ÷ 4 = 100 ÷ - 20 = - 5

This indicates the sequence is geometric with nth term ( explicit formula )

$a_{n}$ = a₁ $(r)^{n-1}$

where a₁ is the first term and r the common ratio

Here a₁ = 4 and r = - 5 , then

$a_{n}$ = 4 $(-5)^{n-1}$
