This is known as Einstein's proof, not because he was the first to come up with it, but because he came up with it as a 15 year old boy.

Here the problem is justification step 2. The written equation

BC ÷ DC = BC ÷ AC

is incorrect, and wouldn't get us our statement 2, which is correct.

For similar triangles we have to carefully pair the corresponding parts to get our ratios right:

ABC ~ BDC means AB:BD = BC:DC = AC:BC so BC/DC=AC/BC.

Justification 2 has the final division upside down.

Add these two expressions. (–45t + 53s) and (–3 – 75s + 2t) 65t + 415s – 3 –145t – 115s – 3 –115t + 113s – 3 115t – 415s + 2

Answer:

- 43t - 22s - 3

Step-by-step explanation:

(–45t + 53s) + (–3 – 75s + 2t)

Opening the brackets

-45t + 53s -3 - 75s + 2t

Collecting like terms

-45t + 2t + 53s - 75s -3

Simplify the expression

-43t -22s - 3

A large truck has two fuel tanks, each with a capacity of 150 gallons. Tank 1 is half full, and Tank 2 is empty.

12345 [234]

Answer:

1) $G(t) = 75 + \frac{23}{4}t\\$

2) After 8 minutes delivering fuel the tanks will have 121 gallons of fuel

Step-by-step explanation:

1) For generating the equation we have to take into account that in the tanks there is a initial volume of fuel that corresponds to 75 gallons, as it is stated that tank one is half full. As the capacity for tank 1 is of 150 gallons, half of the tank equals to:

$\frac{150}{2} = 75 gallons$

Now we have to convert the rate of delivery that is expressed as a mixed number to an improper fraction so:

$5\frac{3}{4} = \frac{(5x4)+3}{4} = \frac{23}{4}$

Then the pumping rate is of 23/4 gallons per minute, to get how many gallons are in the tank we just need to multiply this rate by the time in minutes, and as there is an initial volume we have to add it, so we have the following equation:

$G(t) = 75 + \frac{23}{4}t\\$

2) To know how much fuel is in the tank after 8 minutes we have to replace this time in the previous equation so we have

$G(t) = 75 + \frac{23}{4}t\\G(8) = 75 + \frac{23}{4}(8)\\G(8) = 75 + 23(2)\\G(8) = 75 + 46\\G(8) = 121 gallons$

After 8 minutes delivering fuel the tanks will have 121 gallons of fuel

Nearest whole number is 53

If it were 53 point any decimal 5 or up it would be 54.
