He drove 14 miles per gallon.

Step-by-step explanation:

Total distance = 278.2 miles

Gasoline used = 19.6 gallons

We need to find the unit rate of gallon, therefore, we will divide the total distance covered with the gasoline used to find the distance drove with 1 gallon of gasoline.

Distance per gallon = $\frac{Total\ distance}{Gasoline used}$

Distance per gallon = $\frac{278.2}{19.6}\\$

Distance per gallon = $14.19\ miles$

Rounding of to nearest whole amount;

Distance per gallon = 14 miles

He drove 14 miles per gallon.

The cost c, for manufacturing x flags is given by c=x? -24x +39. Find the number of flags manufactured if the cost is $120.

IRINA_888 [86]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

You want to find x when c = 120.

120 = x^2 -24x +39

x^2 -24x -81 = 0 . . . . . . subtract 120 to put in standard form

(x -27)(x +3) = 0 . . . . . .factor it

Solutions are ...

x = 27, x = -3 . . . . . values of x that make the factors zero

The number of flags manufactured for a cost of $120 is 27 flags.

What are all the exact solutions of -3tan^2(x)+1=0? Give your answer in radians.

goldenfox [79]

$\displaystyle\\
 -3\tan^2x + 1 = 0\\\\
 -3\tan^2x = -1\\\\
\tan^2x = \frac{-1}{-3} \\\\
\tan^2x = \frac{1}{3} ~~~~~ \Big|~\sqrt{~~~} \\\\
\sqrt{\tan^2x} = \sqrt{\frac{1}{3}} \\\\
\tan x = \Big| \frac{1}{ \sqrt{3} } \Big|\\\\
\tan x = \Big| \frac{\sqrt{3}}{ 3 } \Big|\\\\
\tan x = \frac{\sqrt{3}}{ 3 }~~~\Longrightarrow~~x_1= \frac{\pi}{6} + k\pi,~~k \in N \\\\ 
\tan x = -\frac{\sqrt{3}}{ 3 }~~~\Longrightarrow~~x_2= \pi-\frac{\pi}{6} + k\pi = \frac{5\pi}{6} + k\pi,~~k \in N \\\\
