1/4 is the same thing as 25%. So we know that we have to find 25% of 2000 pounds, which is 1 ton. Convert 25% into a decimal and then multiply.
2000 times .25 is 500.
One fourth of one ton is 500 pounds.
90 miles/4 gallons = 22.5 miles/1 gallon.
22.5 miles*18 gallons= 405 miles
the answer is 405 miles

Answer:
14.1 years
Step-by-step explanation:
Use the compound interest formula and solve for t. Logarithms are involved.
A = P(1 +r/n)^(nt)
amount when P is invested for t years at annual rate r compounded n times per year.
Using the given values, we have ...
13060 = 8800(1 +0.028/365)^(365t)
13060/8800 = (1 +0.028/365)^(365t) . . . . divide by P=8800
Now we take logarithms to make this a linear equation.
log(13060/8800) = (365t)log(1 +0.028/365)
Dividing by the coefficient of t gives us ...
t = log(13060/8800)/(365·log(1 +0.028/365)) ≈ 0.171461/0.0121598
t ≈ 14.1
It would take about 14.1 years for the value to reach $13,060.
Answer:
x=-4
x=4
Step-by-step explanation:
We can factor x^2 -16 = 0 by recognizing that it is a difference of squares. That means we can factor the equation to (x-4)(x+4) = 0. By using the Zero Product Property we know that either (x-4) or (x+4) is equal to 0. That means that x either equals -4 or 4.
