Complete question :

Harry fills up his Jeep with gasoline and notes that the odometer reading is 23,568.7 miles. The next time he fills up his Jeep, he pays for 12.6 gallons of gasoline. He notes his odometer reading is 23,706.3 miles. How many miles per gallon did he get?

Answer:

10.9 miles per gallon

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Odometer reading when filled up with gasoline = 23,568.7 miles

Odometer reading with 12.6 gallons of gasoline = 23,706.3 miles

Miles per gallon gotten :

(Current Odometer reading - reading when filled up) / gallon of gasoline

(23706.3 - 23568.7) / 12.6

= 10.920634

= 10.9 miles per gallon

Plisss help on my assesment
Anon25 [30]

Answer:

The first one is equivalent [the 6x+48 = 2(3x+24)] and the second one is <u>NOT</u> equivalent [the 7x+21 ≠ 2(5x+3)]

Step-by-step explanation:

Just follow distributive property to solve these. You can ignore the first expression in both until you have to compare the answers.

1. 6x+48 and 2(3x+24)

2(3x+24) ---> 2(3x) + 2(24) ---> <u>6x + 48</u>

Bring in the first expression ~ <u>6x+48 and 6x+48 </u>

They are the same, so they are equivalent

2. 7x+21 and 2(5x+3)

2(5x+3) ---> 2(5x) + 2(3) ----> 10x + 6

Bring in the first expression ~ <u>7x+21 and 10x + 6</u>

They are NOT the same, so they are NOT equivalent

The greatest factor that two or more numbers have in common is the
trapecia [35]

Answer:

 "greatest common factor" (GCF) or "greatest common divisor" (GCD)

Step-by-step explanation:

Apparently, you're looking for the term that has the given definition. It is called the GCF or GCD, the "greatest common factor" or the "greatest common divisor."

_____

The GCF or GCD can be found a couple of ways. One way is to find the prime factors of the numbers involved, then identify the lowest power of each of the unique prime factors that are common to all numbers. The product of those numbers is the GCF.

<u>Example</u>:

  GCF(6, 9)

can be found from the prime factors:

  • 6 = 2·3
  • 9 = 3²

The unique factors are 2 and 3. Only the factor 3 is common to both numbers, and its lowest power is 1. Thus ...

  GCF(6, 9) = 3¹ = 3

__

Another way to find the GCD is to use Euclid's Algorithm. At each step of the algorithm, the largest number modulo the smallest number is found. If that is not zero, the largest number is replaced by the result, and the process repeated. If the result is zero, the smallest number is the GCD.

  GCD(6, 9) = 9 mod 6 = 3 . . . . . (6 mod 3 = 0, so 3 is the GCD)

Write a coordinate proof to prove that the segment that joins the vertex angle of an isosceles triangle to the midpoint of its b
Natalija [7]

Answer:

Slope of the base segment line is zero, hence base segment is horizontal

Slope of the segment that joins the vertex angle to the midpoint of its base is undefined hence the line is vertical

Therefore, angle between base segment line and the segment line from the vertex angle to the midpoint is perpendicular

Therefore, the segment that joins the vertex angle to an isosceles triangle to the midpoint of its base is perpendicular to the base

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we prove the required relation as follows;

Let the isosceles be ABC

The coordinates of the points are

C = (0, 0) (Vertex)

A =  (-a, b)

C = (a, b)

P = (0, b) (Midpoint of base)

Therefore, the gradient or slope of the base AC is presented as follows;

Slope, m \, of \. base, \, AC= \frac{dy}{dx}  = \frac{b - b}{a - (-a)}  = \frac{0}{2\cdot a} = 0

Hence, segment AC is vertical

Slope, m \, of \, segment \ CP \,  joining \, vertex, \, to \, midpoint, P, on  \,AC = \frac{0 - b}{0 - 0}  = \frac{-b}{0} = Undifined.

Hence, segment CP is vertical

Therefore, the segment that joins the vertex angle to an isosceles triangle to the midpoint of its base is perpendicular to the base.

A major retail clothing store is interested in estimating the difference in mean monthly purchases by customers who use the stor
mixer [17]

Answer:

Critical value is t = 1.9901

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the results of the sampling :

                                     In-House Credit Card                National Credit Card                    <u>Sample Size</u> :                              32                                                    50

<u>Mean Monthly Purchases </u>:      $45.67                                            $39.87

<u>Standard Deviation </u>:                $10.90                                             $12.47

Also, the managers wished to test whether there is a statistical difference in the mean monthly purchases by customers using the two types of credit cards, using a significance level α of 0.05.

<em>Firstly, we will specify our null and alternate hypothesis;</em>

Let \mu_1 = Mean Monthly Purchases of In-House Credit Card

     \mu_2 = Mean Monthly purchases of National Credit Card

So, Null Hypothesis, H_0 : \mu_1-\mu_2 = 0  {means that there is no difference in the mean monthly purchases by customers using the two types of credit cards}

Alternate Hypothesis, H_0 : \mu_1-\mu_2\neq 0  {means that there is statistical difference in the mean monthly purchases by customers using the two types of credit cards}

The test statistics that will be used here is <u>Two-sample t-test statistics</u>;

              T.S. = \frac{(\bar X_1-\bar X_2)-(\mu_1-\mu_2)}{s_p \sqrt{\frac{1}{n_1}+\frac{1}{n_2}  } }  ~ t_n___1+n_2-_2

where, \bar X_1 = Sample mean Purchases of In-House Credit Card = $45.67

           \bar X_2 = Sample mean Purchases of National Credit Card = $39.87

            s_p = pooled variance

            n_1 = In-house credit card sample = 32

            n_2 = National credit card sample = 50

So, degree of freedom of t-value here is (32 + 50 - 2) = 80

Now, at 0.05 significance level, t table gives critical value of t = 1.9901 at 80 degree of freedom.

<em>Therefore, the critical value assuming the population standard deviations are not known but that the populations are normally distributed with equal variances is t = 1.9901.</em>
