Answer:
0.6x < 12.5
x < 20.83 days
Step-by-step explanation:
Diego's family car holds 14 gallons of fuel. Each day the car uses 0.6 gallons of fuel. A warning light comes on when the remaining fuel is 1.5 gallons or less. Write an inequality that represents the number of days Diego's father can drive the car without the warning light coming on. Explain each part of your inequality
Car fuel capacity = 14 gallons
Fuel capacity that shows warning light = 1.5 gallons
Fuel capacity without warning light = Car fuel capacity - Fuel capacity that shows warning light
= 14 gallons - 1.5 gallons
= 12.5 gallons
Fuel used per day = 0.6 gallons
Let
x = number of days Diego's father can drive the car without the warning light coming on
The inequality is
0.6x < 12.5
Solve for x
x < 12.5/0.6
x < 20.83 days
This is a fairly easy question. So I'll break it down and give you a description of the terms.
A repeating decimal (like 1/3, 3.333etc is often written as 3.3 with a dot above the second 3 or a ... or an etc) can be anything you chose, 0.7222etc...., 0.3555etc.... Any number which goes on forever. Your choice! A terminating decimal does not go on forever, like 0.25 or 0.43353. It can be as long as you like but it has to end at some point.
Inequalities are just a question, which value is bigger? You use a < or > to show the relationship, x<y means x is smaller than y. Same for y>x.
So just choose two numbers, 0.333... and... let's say, 0.72. 0.72 is larger so we write 0.333...<0.72
Done!
Answer:
33.6
you are welcome :)
Step-by-step explanation:
To write 4 as a time you write 4:00, Then the word after means to add 23 minutes to the 4 so we have 4:23
