Answer:

A)Equation that represents the situation :  7x+2x=4500

B)Regular gas sold = 7x = 7(500)=3500

Premium gas sold = 2x =2(500)=1000

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that The ratio of gallons of regular gas sold to gallons of premium gas sold is 7:2.

Let the ratio be x

Regular gas sold = 7x

Premium gas sold = 2x

We are also given that A gas station sells a total of 4500 gallons of regular and premium gas in one day.

So, 7x+2x=4500

9x=4500

x=500

A)Equation that represents the situation :  7x+2x=4500

B)Regular gas sold = 7x = 7(500)=3500

Premium gas sold = 2x =2(500)=1000

linear equation :x + y = 4500

gallons of regular gas = 3500

gallons of premium gas = 1000

What are the intercepts of y=4x-2?
pshichka [43]
First, solve for the x - intercept. To do so, equate y to 0 and solve for x. 

                                               0 = 4x - 2, x = 1/2

Second, solve for the y - intercept. Equate x to 0 which will give us,

                                              y = (4)(0) -2, y = -2

Therefore,  the x-intercept is 1/2 and y-intercept is -2.

Find the area please
tatuchka [14]

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

Recall that the area of a triangle is given by:

\displaystyle A = \frac{1}{2} bh

In this case, the base is <em>x</em> and the height is <em>y</em>. Hence:

\displaystyle A = \frac{1}{2} xy

We can write the following ratios:

\displaystyle \sin \alpha = \frac{x}{12} \text{ and } \cos \alpha = \frac{y}{12}

Solve for <em>x</em> and <em>y</em>:

\displaystyle x = 12\sin \alpha \text{ and } y = 12\cos \alpha

Substitute:

\displaystyle A = \frac{1}{2}\left(12\sin \alpha\right)\left(12\cos \alpha\right)

And simplify. Hence:

\displaystyle A = 72\sin \alpha \cos\alpha

In conclusion, our answer is D.

An organic farm has been growing an heirloom variety of summer squash. A sample of the weights of 40 summer squash revealed that
natta225 [31]

Answer:

b. 0.0228

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

n=40

Mean,\mu=402.7 g

Standard deviation, \sigma=8.8g

We have to find the probability hat the mean weight for a sample of 40 summer squash exceeds 405.5 grams.

P(x>405.5)=P(\frac{x-\mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}>\frac{405.5-402.7}{\frac{8.8}{\sqrt{40}}})

P(x>405.5)=P(Z>\frac{2.8}{\frac{8.8}{\sqrt{40}}})

P(x>405.5)=P(Z>2.01)

P(x>405.5)=1-P(Z\leq 2.01)

P(x>405.5)=1-0.977784

P(x>405.5)=0.022216

Hence, option b is correct.
