In the​ 1970s, due to world​ events, there was a gasoline shortage in the United States. There were often long lines of cars wai

ting at gas stations.
Part​ A: If there were 62 cars in a line that stretched 567 ​feet, what is the average car​ length? Assume that the cars are lined up​ bumper-to-bumper. Round your answer to the nearest tenth of a foot.
Part​ B: How long would the line be if it contained​ 1,000 cars

Answer:

Part A: The average car length is 9.1 feet to the nearest tenth foot

Part B: The line would be 9100 feet to contained 1000 cars

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets explain how to solve the problem

# Part A:

- There were 62 cars in a line that stretched 567 feet

- The cars are lined up bumper-to-bumper

- That means there is no empty spaces between the cars

* To find the average length of the car we will divide the length of

  the line by the numbers of the cars

∵ The average car length = length of the line/number of cars

∵ The length of the line is 567 feet

∵ The numbers of the cars is 62 cars

∴ The average car length = 567/62 = 9.1 feet

* The average car length is 9.1 feet to the nearest tenth foot

# Part B:

- There are 1000 cars

- We need to find the length of line which contained the cars

∵ The average car length = length of the line/number of cars

∵ The average of car length is 9.1 feet

∵ The number of the cars is 1000 cars

∴ 9.1 = length of the line/1000

- Multiply both sides by 1000

∴ The length of the line = 9.1 × 1000 = 9100 feet

∴ The line would be 9100 feet to contained 1000 cars

Answer:

  f^-1(x) = (x +4)/3

Step-by-step explanation:

The inverse function is found by swapping x and y, then solving for y.

  y = 3x -4 . . . . . function y = f(x)

  x = 3y -4 . . . . . inverse relation

  x +4 = 3y . . . . add 4

  (x +4)/3 = y . . . divide by 3. This is the inverse function

  f^-1(x) = (x +4)/3
