Answer:

D. 89.1%

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

In 1992, Jason bought a gallon of gas for $1.19

This price represent the 100%

Yesterday, he bought a gallon of gas for $2.25

so

using proportion

Find out what is the percentage that correspond to the difference between $2.25 and $1.19

\frac{1.19}{100}=\frac{2.25-1.19}{x}\\\\x=(2.25-1.19)100/1.19\\\\x=89.1^o

Help find the distance between two points?
miv72 [106K]

Answer:

4

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculate the distance using the distance formula

d = √ (x₂ - x₁ )² + (y₂ - y₁ )²

with (x₁, y₁ ) = B(0, 0) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (\frac{\sqrt{6} }{2}, \frac{\sqrt{58} }{2} )

AB = \sqrt{((\frac{\sqrt{6} }{2})^2 } + \{(\frac{\sqrt{58} }{2})^2 }

= \sqrt{\frac{6}{4} } + \frac{58}{4}

= \sqrt{\frac{64}{4} }

= \sqrt{16}

= 4

What is the answer to this algebra 1 answer : 6> 4-2×<4
Artist 52 [7]
6>4-2x<4

so therefor (4x-2) must be less than 6 and less than 4
it must be
6>4-2x and 4<4-2x
find the intersection

6>4-2x
add 2x to both sides
6+2x>4
subtract 6
2x>-2
divide by 2
x>-1



4>4-2x
add 2x
4+2x>4
subtract 4
2x>0
x>0




so we have
x>0
and x>-1
the range of x>-1 includes most of x>0 so the answer is
x>-1
