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

Which of the following is a valid exclusion for the algebraic fraction:
erastova [34]
We have the following expression:
 (27a ^ 3-1) / (9a ^ 2-6a + 1)
 Rewriting we have:
 (27a ^ 3-1) / (9a ^ 2-6a + 1)
 (27a ^ 3-1) / ((3a-1) * (3a-1))
 We exclude the values that make the denominator zero:
 3a-1 = 0
 a = 1/3
 Answer:
 
a valid exclusion for the algebraic fraction is:
 
c. a ≠ 1/3

How to solve piecewise functions step by step?
Zanzabum
If you can graph a function, you can graph piecewise functions.  Each one of them is a different line or curve within the domain for that specific line of curve.  If the domain states it's less than or greater than a number, you circle that point on the line.  If the domain states it's also possibly equal to the point at the beginning or the end, you make a closed dot.  

I"m sure that's clear as mud, please respond with any additional questions.

I WILL AWARD BRAINLIEST IF YOU ANSWER ALL OF THESE!! THANK YOU!!

Answer:

<u>1. The number is 71.3</u>

<u>2. The number is 127.1</u>

<u>3. The number is 230</u>

<u>4. The number is 34</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's find out the numbers, x, for each case:

1. 5% of it is 5% of it is 23% of 15.5

5% = 0.05

23% of 15.5 = 0.23 * 15.5 = 3.565

Then, we have:

0.05x = 3.565

x = 3.565/0.05

x = 71.3

<u>The number is 71.3</u>

2. 4% of it is 31% of 16.4

4% = 0.04

31% of 16.4 = 0.31 * 16.4 = 5.084

Then, we have:

0.04x = 5.084

x = 5.084/0.04

x = 127.1

<u>The number is 127.1</u>

3. 4.5% of it is 23% of 45

4.5% = 0.045

23% of 45 = 0.23 * 45 = 10.35

Then, we have:

0.045x = 10.35

x = 10.35/0.045

x = 230

<u>The number is 230</u>

4. 5.5% of it is 17% of 11

5.5% = 0.055

17% of 11 = 0.17 * 11 = 1.87

Then, we have:

0.055x = 1.87

x = 1.87/0.055

x = 34

<u>The number is 34</u>
