cricket20 [7]

Answer:

<u>-</u><u>5</u><u>g</u><u>(</u><u>4</u><u>)</u><u> </u><u>-</u><u> </u><u>1</u><u> </u><u>is</u><u> </u><u>9</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

g(x) = 1 -  \frac{3}{4} x

when x is 4:

g(4) = 1 -  \frac{3}{4}  \times 4 \\  = 1 - 3 \\  =  - 2

therefore:

- 5g(4) - 1 =  - 5( - 2) - 1 \\  = 10 - 1 \\  = 9

The janitor at a school discovered a leak in a pipe. The janitor found that it was leaking at a rate of 11 fl oz per hour. How f
netineya [11]
Here's what you need to know in order to answer this:

       1 gallon  =  128 fl oz
and      
       1 day  =  24 hours. 
    
Use those facts to invent fractions equal to ' 1 '.
Then use those to change the units of the "11 fl oz per hour".
You can multiply them ... since their value is ' 1 ', they won't
change the value of the "11 fl oz per hour", only the units.

                  (11 fl oz/hr) x (24 hr/da) x (1 gal / 128 fl oz)

               = (11 x 24 x 1 / 128)  (fl-oz - hr - gal) / (hr - da - fl-oz)

               =         2.0625                        gal/da
