Answer:

d = 22 - x / 25

Step-by-step explanation:

The first thing is to calculate the tank capacity, we know that per gallon 25 miles are traveled and at 500 miles there were still two gallons, therefore:

500 miles / 25 miles / gallon = 20

and how there were still 2

20 + 2 = 22

the tank has a 22 gallon capacity

Therefore the equation would be:

d = 22 - x / 25

where x is the number of miles traveled.

for example, if they have traveled 500 miles it would be:

d = 22 - 500/25 = 22 - 20

d = 2 gallons

we can verify that it is correct because it is what the statement says

The only answer choice that is a 2nd degree polynomial with a negative leading coefficient is choice D.

__

A: linear equation

B: exponential equation

C: quadratic that opens upward (positive leading coefficient)

D: quadratic that opens downward -- the answer you're looking for

How do I find a common denominator for a complex faction when one denominator is 2m-1 and the other is 2m+5
ratelena [41]
The best option is to multiply them together, there would be no value that is common between the two, (2m - 1)(2m + 5), and leave it in this form.

However, there is a second method.
Notice how between the two sits a difference of 6.
You can manipulate one of the fractions to render the same denominator and work from there.
