Answer:

Each person will get 36.9 acres of land.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Total land = 258.2 acres

7 people will equally split the land between them, therefore, we will divide the total land by total number of people to calculate the share of each person.

Share of each person = $\frac{258.2}{7}$

Share of each person = 36.88 acres

Rounding to the nearest tenth,

Share of each person = 36.9 acres

Hence,

Each person will get 36.9 acres of land.

A truck travels from a factory to a gas station in 3 minutes. It stops at the gas station for 2 minutes. The truck then returns

OLga [1]

Answer:

A graph shows Time in minutes along the x-axis and Truck’s distance from factory in miles along the y axis. The scales on the x- and y-axes are from 0 to 10 at increments of 1. There are three straight lines in the graph. The first line joins ordered pair 0, 0 with 3, 3. The second straight line joins 3, 3 and 5, 3, and the third straight line joins ordered pair 5, 3 with the ordered pair 10, 0.

Step-by-step explanation:

So, during the first 3 minutes, it reached the distance y. We are not given this distance or the truck's speed, so we can not calculate it, but we know that, in this period, the truck went from (0,0) to (3,y).

During the next two minutes, the truck didn't move, but the time passed. So, it went from (3,y) to (5,y).

And finally, in the next five minutes, it returned to a factory, meaning that y=0, so it went from (5,y) to (10,0).

So, the answer that best fits this graph is D.

Which of the following expressions is the inverse of the function y = x - 2 over 3?

asambeis [7]

To find the inverse, you can either do this:

y=(x-2)/3 *switch x and y

x=(y-2)/3 *multiply 3 on both sides

x(3)=((y-2)/3)(3) *the three cancels out on the right side

3x=y-2 *add the 2 on both sides

3x+2=y-2+2 *simplify

Final answer should be : 3x+2=y (inverse)
