Answer:
Cory bought 6.47 gallons
rate of change is $2.78 per gallon
Step-by-step explanation:
cost of gas per gallon = $2.78
it means that if one buy 1 gallon he will have to pay $2.78 and similary for each increase in 1 gallon of gallon gas he will have to pay $2.78.
Thus, rate of change is cost of gas per gallon as cost to buy gas changes with the change in quantity of gallon.
Let the quantity of gas bought be x gallon.
Total cost for x gallons = cost of gas per gallon*x = 2.78x
Given that total money paid by him is $18
2.78x = 18
x = 18/2.78 = 6.47
Thus, Cory bought 6.47 gallons
rate of change is $2.78 per gallon
6, 7, 8, and 9. just plug the X into the equation
B. 12 would be your answer
Answer:
x = -2
y = 3
Step-by-step explanation:
-5x + 3y = 19
x = 3y - 11
-5x + 3y = 19
-5(3y - 11) + 3y = 19
-15y + 55 + 3y = 19
-15y + 3y + 55 = 19
-12y + 55 = 19
-12y = 19 - 55
-12y = -36
y = -36/-12
<u>y = 3</u>
x = 3y - 11
x = 3(3) - 11
x = 9 - 11
<u>x = -2</u>
Area of a triangle:
A (triangle )= 4 · 6 / 2 = 12 ft²
150 - 12 = 138 ft² ( the maximum area of the rectangle )
L = ?
W = 6 ft
A ( rectangle ) = L · W
L · 6 = 138
L = 138 : 6 = 23 ft.
Answer: the maximum length of the base of the rectangle he can build is 23 ft.
