Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Total amount with Gerald = $32

Cost of fuel per gallon = $2.75

Cost of each bottle of windshield = $3

38 miles per gallon. If Gerard must fill his car with enough fuel to drive 250 miles,

Total gallons of fuel = 250 miles / 38 miles

= 6.5789473684210 gallons

Total cost of fuel = Total gallons of fuel × cost per gallon

= 6.5789473684210 × $2.75

= $18.1

Amount left for windshield = Total amount with Gerald - Total cost of fuel

= $32 - $18.1

= $13.9

what is the maximum number of bottles of windshield washer fluid Gerard can buy?

= Amount left for windshield / Cost of each bottle of windshield

= $13.9 / $3

= 4.6333333333333 bottles

Maximum number of bottles =

4 bottles

Find the equation of the line that is parallel to y=3x-2 and contains the point (2,11).
SOVA2 [1]

Answer:

y - 11 = 3 (x - 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

This is in point slope form, that is by far the best form to be in. Point slope form is best when there is a point and it gives it to you in slope intercept form. you take the slope from the original equation and stick it into y - (y point) = slope (x - (x point)) you know it is the right equation because it gives you the slope, which is the same, and the point, which is given.

The way to get it into slope intersept form you just solve for y

Find BC of AC=21 and AB=9
Scrat [10]
The answer is 12. How did I get it?

< - - - - -- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - >
A                         B                         C

AC = 21 (the whole line adds up to 21)
AB = 9   (half of the line is 9)
BC = AC-AB 

21- 9 = 12 so BC is 12
