Answer:

9.9 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem, we need to cross multiply. Lets input the values (250, 275, 9) as shown below:

\frac{9}{250}  = \frac{x}{275}

Next we cross multiply. We multiply 250 and x, and we multiply 9 and 275.

250(x) = 250x\\

275(9) = 2,475

Now, lets put the values above back into the equation:

250x = 2,475

Lets solve this equation. First we divide 2,475 by 250, making x by itself.

\frac{2,475}{250} =x

9.9 = x

This means that to drive 275 miles, Kala would need to use 9.9 gallons of gas.

F(x) = 2x^2 − 3x − 5 Part
riadik2000 [5.3K]

Answer:  Answer  is in the steps..

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x)= 2x^{2} - 3x -5        

A) To find the x intercepts of a parabola we have to set the whole equation equal zero because the x intercept is when y equal zero in other words where f(x) equal zero.

 2x^{2}  - 3x - 5 = 0     Now solve using quadratic formula.

  x = -b±\frac{\sqrt{b^2 -4ac } }{2a}    

  x = 3 ± \sqrt{9+40} /2a  

   x = 3 ± \sqrt{49}  / 2a

   x= 3 ± 7 /4

   x= -1   or x = 5/2  

The x intercepts are  (5/2,0)  and (-1,0)

   

B)  The graph vertex of the graph of f(x)  is going to be at a minimum because the leading coefficient of the function has a positive integer which means the parabola will open up and its vertex will be at the minimum point.

 Using the  x coordinates  we could find their average and find the x coordinate of the   vertex.

\frac{5}{2} + -\frac{1}{1}  =  \frac{3}{2} / \frac{2}{1} = 3/4  

The x coordinate of the vertex  is 3/4 so we will input that into the equation and solve for the y coordinate  

2(\frac{3}{4})^2 - 3 (\frac{3}{4}) - 5   = 18/16 - 9/4 -5  =  -49/8

The y coordinate of the vertex  is  -49/8

So the vertex is (3/4, -49/8)  

C)   First  I will graph the vertex and then graph he two x intercepts and connect then like a U shape.

What is the answer for number 11. Please
Zolol [24]
#11
Each roll is 9' long, 
length of each roll = 9' * (12"/foot) = 108"
Each ribbon piece = 15", so number of ribbons per roll
=108/15=7 with 3" left over, which is assumed not possible to be joined with other pieces.
Therefore, with 5 rolls, there are 7*5=35 pieces of ribbon, with 5 pieces or 3" left over.

Solve the following triangle. Given A=51 degrees b=40 c=45
STALIN [3.7K]

Answer:

a=36.87\ units

B=57.47^o

C=71.53^o

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1

Find the length side a

Applying the law of cosines

a^2=b^2+c^2-2(b)(c)cos(A)

substitute the given values

a^2=40^2+45^2-2(40)(45)cos(51^o)

a^2=1,359.4466

a=36.87\ units

step 2

Find the measure of angle B

Applying the law of sines

\frac{a}{sin(A)} =\frac{b}{sin(B)}

substitute the given values

\frac{36.87}{sin(51^o)} =\frac{40}{sin(B)}

sin(B)=\frac{sin(51^o)}{36.87}{40}

B=sin^{-1}(\frac{sin(51^o)}{36.87}{40})=57.47^o

step 3

Find the measure of angle C

Remember that the sum of the interior angles in any triangle must be equal to 180 degrees

so

A+B+C=180^o

substitute the given values

51^o+57.47^o+C=180^o

108.47^o+C=180^o

C=180^o-108.47^o=71.53^o
