Answer:

The American consumed 3.205\times 10^8 gallons of gasoline.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information in the question:

Gasoline consumed by the Americans = 320,500,000 gallons

We have to convert this number into scientific notation.

  • Scientific notation is a method  of writing very large or very small numbers.
  • A number is written in scientific notation when a number between 1 and 10 is multiplied by a power of 10.

The above number can be written in scientific notation in the following manner:

320,500,000 = 3.205\times 10^8

Hence, the American consumed 3.205\times 10^8 gallons of gasoline.

Answer:

a) 4x -y = 2; (1/2, 0), (0, -2)

b) 3x +y = 5; (5/3, 0), (0, 5)

c) 5x -y = -3; (-3/5, 0), (0, 3)

d) x -y = 7; (7, 0), (0, -7)

e) 8x +y = -12; (-3/2, 0), (0, -12)

Step-by-step explanation:

The form you have is ...

y = -Ax +C . . . . . where B = 1

You can simply rearrange the coefficients to get the form you want.

For (a), you can identify -A = 4, so A = -4, and C = -2. In the desired form, the equation is then ...

-4x +y = -2

"Standard form" requires the leading coefficient be positive, so you now need to multiply the entire equation by -1:

4x -y = 2

I suspect either of the above answers will satisfy your grader, but I like the latter form better. So, the answers below have the equation multiplied by -1 when A is negative to start with.

Since the given equation is already in slope-intercept form, the y-intercept is read directly from the equation as C.

The x-intercept is the value C/A, where you do need to pay attention to the signs.

Again, for (a), the y-intercept is already known to be -2; the x-intercept is ...

C/A = -2/-4 = 2/4 = 1/2.

___

a) A=-4, C=-2, x-intercept = C/A = -2/-4 = 1/2, y-intercept = C = -2. Equation in standard form is 4x -y = 2

__

b) A=3, C=5, x-intercept = C/A = 5/3, y-intercept = C = 5. Equation in standard form is 3x+y=5

__

c) A=-5, C=3, x-intercept = C/A = 3/-5 = -5/3, y-intercept = C = 3. Equation in standard form is 5x -y = -3

__

d) A=-1, C=-7, x-intercept = C/A = -7/-1 = 7, y-intercept = C = -7. Equation in standard form is x -y = 7

__

e) A=8, C=-12, x-intercept = C/A = -12/8 = -3/2, y-intercept = C = -12. Equation in standard form is 8x +y = -12

Anyone know the answer to this
Vesna [10]

Answer:

Part A:

- angle ACB= 60° (ABC equilateral triangle.)

- Angle ECD=EDC= (180°-32°)/2= 148/2= 74° (sum of angles in a triangle is equal to 180, and triangle ECD is isosceles since it's given that CE=DE.

- x= 180°-(60°+74°)

   = 180°-134°

   = 46°

x= 46°

Part B:

120°

Polynomials are closed under the operation of addition. Which statement best explains the meaning of closure of polynomials unde
spayn [35]
Answer: The correct answer is the second choice: "When any two polynomials are added, the result is always a polynomial."

When a set of numbers is "closed" under an operation, it means that the resulting output answer is the same type as the input.

For example, if you add  2x + 9 and 3x + 12, you get 5x + 21.

You started with 2 polynomials and you ended with a polynomial.

Use and method to find the total number of outcomes in each situation.
Maksim231197 [3]
<h3>Answer:  6</h3>

===========================================================

Explanation:

Think of a table that has 2 rows and 3 columns.

Each row represents a different math class (either Algebra or Geometry).

Each column represents a different foreign language class (French, Spanish or Latin).

This table has 2*3 = 6 cells inside. Each cell represents a different combination of classes possible.

In short, all we have to do is multiply the number of classes for each subject.
