Answer:

1123.5714 kg C

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

Miles traveled = 1.3 * 10^4 miles

Miles per gallon = 28 miles per Gallon

Carbon footprint per gallon = 2.42 kg C per gallon

The total gallons of gasoline used over the course of the year :

Total miles traveled / miles per gallon

1.3 * 10^4 / 28 = 464.28571 gallons

Carbon footprint per gallon = 2.42 kg C

Total carbon footprint of transportation :

2.42 kg C per gallon * 464.28571 gallons

= 1123.5714 kg C

How to calculate the area of a sector</h3>

A sector is said to be a part of a circle made of the arc of the circle along with its two radii.

The formula for calculating the area of a sector is expressed as;

A = r²β/2

where

r is the radius of the circle

β is the angle subtended

Since the the hour hand travel during 5 hours, the subtended angle by the sector will be;

β = 360/5

β = 72 degrees

Given the following parameters

r = 16/2

r = 8in

Substitute into the formula

A = 8²(72π)/360
A = 40.192in

Therefore the hour hand travels 40.192in in 5 hours

What is the sum? StartFraction 3 y Over y squared + 7 y + 10 EndFraction + StartFraction 2 Over y + 2 EndFraction
katovenus [111]

Answer:

\dfrac{5}{y+5}

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we have to find the sum of 2 fractions:

1st fraction: \dfrac{3y}{y^{2}+7y+10}

2nd fraction: \dfrac{2}{y+2}

Considering the denominator of 1st fraction:

y^{2}+7y+10

Using factorization method:

7y can be written as (2y + 5y).

\Rightarrow y^{2}+2y+5y+10

Taking <em>5 common</em> from 5y+10 and <em>y common</em> from y^{2}+2y: \Rightarrow y(y+2)+5(y+2)

Now taking (y+2) common:

\Rightarrow (y+5)(y+2)

\dfrac{3y}{y^{2}+7y+10} can be written as \dfrac{3y}{(y+5)(y+2)}

Now, calculating the sum:

\dfrac{2y}{(y+5)(y+2)} + \dfrac{2}{y+2}

Taking <em>LCM</em> and solving:

\Rightarrow \dfrac{3y+2(y+5)}{(y+5)(y+2)}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{5y+10}{(y+5)(y+2)}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{5(y+2)}{(y+5)(y+2)}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{5}{(y+5)}

Hence, answer is \dfrac{5}{y+5}.
