If g is the gallons of gas, and the truck holds up to 20 gallons, then g can be anything from 0 to 20.
If there is zero gallons of gas (g = 0) then the truck will travel zero miles because M(0) = 17(0) = 0.
The max miles depends on the max gallons of gas, so the miles possible with 20 gallons is M(20) = 17(20) = 340.
So, g ranges from 0 to 20 and M(g) ranges from 0 to 340.
Therefore your answer is the last option.
Out of a single week it's 2/7. Out of a month it'd be 8/30 with only 30 days in a month. I hope this helps.
Answer:
x = 7 is the answer for the smaller number
7 + 1 = 8 is the answer for the larger number
Step-by-step explanation:
LET x and x+1 be the two numbers here, as your hint suggests.
5x + 3(x+1) = 59
5x + 3x+3 = 59
8x = 59-3
8x = 56
/8 /8
--------------------------
x = 56/8 ---> x = 7
x = 7 is the answer for the smaller number
7 + 1 = 8 is the answer for the larger number
Check:
5 * 7 + 3 * 8 = 59
35 + 24 = 59
59 = 59 CORRECT
Answer: x = 6
==============================================
Explanation:
The medians of a triangle meet up at the centroid in such a way that they cut each other at a ratio of 2:1, meaning that one part of the median is twice as long as the other. In this case, MO is two times longer than OP, so,
OP = 2*MO
and
MP = MO + OP
MP = MO + 2*MO .... replace OP with 2*MO
MP = 3*MO
9x-24 = 3*(x+4) ... plug in the given expressions
9x-24 = 3x+12
9x-3x = 12+24
6x = 36
x = 36/6
x = 6
It should be 2 to 3, so the last answer should be right
