Well hmmm let's say you take the car and go in the city for 60 miles with it, well, the car can do 60 miles per gallon, since you just drove it for 60 miles, you only spent 1 gallon of gasoline then.
that only happens if you drive it for 60 miles, what if you drive it for more, let's do a quick table on that,

and so on, now let's check if you less than 60 miles,

so, if you divide the amount of miles driven, by 60, when you have driven it for 120 miles, 120/60 is just 2, and the cost is for 2 gallons, or 3.6 * 2, which is 7.2 bucks, for 180 miles is 180/60 or 3 gallons for 3.6 * 3 bucks, and so on.
now, what if you drive it instead for "m" miles?
Take the natural log of both sides
ln(2^x)=ln(.125)
Xln(2)=ln(.125)
X=ln(.125)/ln(2)
X=-3
ALTERNATIVE ROUTE:
You know that 0.125 is equal to 1/8
And 1/2^3 is also equal to 1/8
So since you need the reciprocal to match it the exponent is a negative
Answer:
6y
Step-by-step explanation:
The two figure are squares with the same area
side = √area = √y^2 = y (with y>0 because a length can‘t be negative)
perimeter = side * 6 = y * 6 = 6y
On the 21st day, he sprints 205 yards.
Is that what you meant for the problem
or do u want to know how many yards he sprinted total for the 21 days
If it is,
he sprinted a total of 3390 yards
Answer:
The answer to your question is: (x + 2)(3x - 1) = 0
x1 = -2
x2 = 1/3
Step-by-step explanation:
3x² + 5x − 2 = 0
Multiply 3 x -2 = -6
Find two numbers that added = +5 and multiply -6
These numbers are +6 and -1
Then:
3x² + 6x -1x − 2 = 0
Factorize 3x (x + 2) - 1(x + 2) = 0
Factorize again (x + 2)(3x - 1) = 0
Finally
x + 2 = 0 3x - 1 = 0
x = -2 x = 1/3
