The answer is: x= 5/12 or x=0.416
From inspecting the graph, you can identify the y-intercept and the slope of the line shown.
The y-intercept is 200 gallons.
The slope is
75-200
m = ------------- = -12.5 gallons/minute
10 - 0
Thus, y = 200 gallons - [12.5 gallons/minute ]t
To answer the 2nd question, let t = 12 minutes and calculate y(12).
To determine how long it wld take to empty the tank, set the above formula equal to zero and solve the resulting equation for t.
Answer:
They can buy 24 helmets.
Step-by-step explanation:
1 helmet = $15
$369 divided by $15 --> 24.6 --> 24 helmets
Answer:
174 ft²
Step-by-step explanation:
Assuming you're interested in the area of the figure, you can compute it as the sum of the areas of the triangle and rectangle.
The unknown side of the triangle can be figured from the overall dimension of the rectangle and the two lengths that are not part of the triangle base:
6 ft + triangle base + 6 ft = 18 ft
triangle base = 18 ft - 12 ft = 6 ft
Then the area of the triangle is ...
A = 1/2bh = 1/2(6 ft)(4 ft) = 12 ft²
__
Of course, the area of the rectangle is the product of its length and width:
A = LW = (18 ft)(9 ft) = 162 ft²
__
The total area of the figure is the sum of these:
area = triangle area + rectangle area
area = 12 ft² +162 ft²
area = 174 ft²
