gasoline gauge on a van initially read 1/4 full. when 10 gallons are added the gauge reads 3/4 full. how many more gallons for a

full tank
Mathematics

You need 5 more gallons for a full tank. 
Since it takes 10 gallons to increase the gauge from 1/4 to 3/4 (change of 2/4 which is the same as 1/2), it must have taken 10 gallons to fill up to halfway for the tank.  
Thus the full amount would be 10*2 = 20 gallons
However, since there is already 3/4 gasoline in the tank, we only need an extra 1/4 of 20 for it to be full. 
So, 20*1/4 = 5
We need to add 5 gallons for a full tank.

Choose the best reason for using the median as the measure of central tendency.
Alchen [17]

Answer:

The median is usually preferred in these situations because the value of the mean can be distorted by the outliers. However, it will depend on how influential the outliers are. If they do not significantly distort the mean, using the mean as the measure of central tendency will usually be preferred.

the vertex of this parabola is at (3,5). When the y-value is 6, the x-value is -1. What is the coefficient of the squared term i
otez555 [7]
Now, assuming is a vertical parabola, so the squared variable is the "x", let's do some checking.

\bf \qquad \textit{parabola vertex form}\\\\
\begin{array}{llll}
\boxed{y=a(x-{{ h}})^2+{{ k}}}\\\\
x=a(y-{{ k}})^2+{{ h}}
\end{array} \qquad\qquad  vertex\ ({{ h}},{{ k}})\\\\
-------------------------------\\\\
vertex
\begin{cases}
h=3\\
k=5
\end{cases}\implies y=a(x-3)^2+5
\\\\\\
\textit{we also know that }
\begin{cases}
y=6\\
x=-1
\end{cases}\implies 6=a(-1-3)^2+5
\\\\\\
1=a(-4)^2\implies 1=16a\implies \cfrac{1}{16}=a

Please answer soooooooooooooooon :|
madam [21]

Answer: 200 square units

Step-by-step explanation:

first you think what 60/3 is and you get 20

then you multiply 20x20 and get 400

then you divide by 2 because to find the area of a triangle you use the formula (lxh)/2
