Since the two measures are vertical angles, you want to set them equal to each other :
6x+7=8x-17
-6x -6x
——————
7=2x-17
+17 +17
———————
24= 2x
X= 12
———
The answer is 12.
Take the price of pears (£1.30 per kilogram) and multiply it by the amount of pears (7kg). You get 9.1 so now you take the total amount spent (£12.70) and subtract the 9.1 and you get 3.6 now that is the amount you spent on the apples. So take 3.6 and divide it by the amount of apples you got (2kg) you will get 1.8 and that is your overall answer.
0.41567 is:
... rational because it can be expressed as a fraction (e.g., 41567/100000)
... not irrational for the same reason
... not whole (obviously)
... not integer (obviously)
Answer:
a) -3 gallons per hour
b) y = -3x +14
Step-by-step explanation:
Rate of change is computed by dividing the amount of change by the interval over which it occurred.
<h3>a)</h3>
Here the amount of gas decreased from 14 to 2 gallons, so a decrease of 14-2 = 12 gallons. That occurred over a 4-hour period, so the rate of change is (-12 gallons)/(4 hours) = -3 gallons/hour.
__
<h3>b)</h3>
The initial amount was 14 gallons, so the equation for the line describing remaining gas will be ...
y = -3x +14 . . . . gas in the tank after x hours
