We need to convert the mileage from mi/gal units into to km/L units using the conversion factors.

(31.0 mi/gal) x (1 km / 0.6214 mi) x (1 gal / 3.78 L) = 13.20 km/L

Next, we divide the distance by the mileage. 
(142 km) / (13.20 km/L) = 10.79 L

<span>Therefore, you need 10.79 liters of gasoline.</span>

10.76 liters of gasoline.

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

<u>Given:</u>

  • The car mileage is 31.0 mi/gal.
  • We need to complete a 142-km trip in Europe.
  • The following conversions are 1 km = 0.6214 miles and 1 gal = 3.78 L.

<u>Question:</u>

How many liters of gasoline would we need to buy to complete a 142 km trip in Europe?

<u>The Process:</u>

This case is about gasoline efficiency in Europe.

The steps to solve this case are as follows:

  1. Convert the car mileage from mi/gal units into km/L units.
  2. Divide the distance by the converted mileage to get the amount of gasoline.

Step-1

The car mileage (in km/L)

\boxed{ \ 31.0 \ \frac{miles}{gal} \times \frac{1 \ km}{0.6214 \ miles} \times \frac{1 \ gal}{3.78 \ L }\ } \rightarrow \boxed{ \ 13.20 \ \frac{km}{L} \ }

Step-2

The amount of gasoline (in L)

\boxed{ \ \frac{142 \ km}{13.20 \ \frac{km}{L}} \ } \rightarrow \boxed{\boxed{ \ 10.76 \ L \ }}

<u>Quick Steps:</u>

\boxed{ \ 142 \ km \times \frac{0.6214 \ miles}{1 \ km} \times \frac{1 \ gal}{31.0 \ miles} \times \frac{3.78 \ L}{1 \ gal} = \boxed{ \ 10.76 \ L \ } \ }

Thus the amount of gasoline would we need to buy to complete a 142 km trip in Europe is 10.76 L.

-f(3f-7)=0 solve equation<br>​
kenny6666 [7]

Answer:

F=0 or (7/3)

Step-by-step explanation:

When F is 0, the equation reads -0(3(0)-7)=0. The outside 0 will multiply by everything and make it equal 0. When F is 7/3, the inside of the parenthesis read 3(7/3)-7. This equals 7-7. It'll end up being (7/3)0, which equals 0.

What is the input-output table for the function f(x) = 3x^2-x+4
mojhsa [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The input-output table can be made by putting value of x and finding the value of f(x)

f(x) = 3x^2-x+4

f(0) = 3(0)^2-0+4 = 0-0+4 = 4

f(1) = 3(1)^2-1+4 = 3-1+4 = 2+4 =6

f(2) = 3(2)^2-2+4 = 3(4)-2+4 = 12-2+4 = 10+4 = 14

f(3) = 3(3)^2-3+4 = 3(9)-3+4 = 27-3+4 = 24+4 = 28

So put value of x and find f(x) and fill the input-output table.

x  f(x)

0   4

1    6

2   14

3    28

Amanda earned a score of 940 on a national achievement test that was normally distributed. The mean test score was 850 with a st
snow_lady [41]
<span>In math notation, we've done this: z = (X - μ) / σ = (940 - 850) / 100 = 0.90 where z is the z-score X is Vivian's score (940) µ is the mean (850) σ is the standard deviation (100) As you may know, in a normal distribution it's expected that about 68% of all observations will fall within 1 standard deviation of the mean, 95% will fall within 2 standard deviations, and 99% will fall within 3 standard deviations. 
940 lie before the first standard deviation, in which 16.5% is above it
since 940 is 0.9 from the mean and 0.1 from the first standard deviation
so above it is 17.5 % = 0.175 or about 0.18 </span>
