Lena drove 355 miles using 17 gallons of gas. At this rate, how many gallons of gas would she need to drive 284 miles.​

Answer:

13.6 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

Miles Driven = Gallons Burnt * Miles Per Gallon

 

So if yo drive 20.88 miles on one gallon how many gallons does it take to drive 284 miles.  This is 284/20.88 = 13.6 gallons

 

Whilst the numerical answer is correct the previous answer, it does not maintain the validity of the units - in which things are measured.  You will see this is very important in science

 

What can we learn from this.  As an intermediate step we have learnt that the car does 20.88 mpg, lets call it 21.  So a car that has a sticker at the show room with an MPG of more than 21 will consume less gas and one that has a smaller mpg will consume more.

Part 1.] Does the graph have even symmetry, odd symmetry, or neither?
QveST [7]
Part 1
The graph has even symmetry.  You can see that because it is symmetric with respect to the y-axis.
Functions that have even symmetry have the following property:
f(x)=f(-x)
Part 2
To answer this we can simply check if the property we mentioned earlier holds for this function.
sin(\frac{\pi}{2})\ne sin(-\frac{\pi}{2})
We can see that sine does not have even symmetry. 
In fact, sine function has the following property: 
sin(x)=-sin(x)
This is called odd symetry.
Part 3
Take a look at the function that you attached in the picture. We know that function has even symmetry. 
Reflection over x-axis and <span>180° rotation around the origin would give us -f(x). We would not end up with the same function, so these two are out. 
</span><span>90° rotation around the origin would mean we swapped x <span>and y</span> so that one is out too. R</span><span>eflection over the line y=x is a property of functions that have an odd symmetry.
We are left with reflection around y-axis and, as mentioned before, this is the property of evenly symmetric functions.</span>

A fair die is rolled once. Let A be the event of rolling an even number, and let B be the event of rolling a number greater than
IRISSAK [1]

Answer:

A ∩ B = {4, 6}

Step-by-step explanation:

A die had 6 faces

S = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}

If A  be the event of rolling an even number, then;

A = {2, 4, 6}

If B be the event of rolling a number greater than 3, then;

B = {4, 5, 6}

A ∩ B are the values that are common to both sets

A ∩ B = {4, 6}
