Step-by-step explanation:
You can see where the two lines intersect - that's the solution.
Answer:
43.5
Step-by-step explanation:
First
1218 divided by 2
= 609
Second
609 divided by 14 is =43.5
43.5 is the answer
The answer is 1/(x+4)
Explanation:
You would factor out the denominator
So,
(X-4)(x+4)=x^2-16
So, x-4/(x+4)(x-4)
Then x-4 cancels each other out from the numerator and denominator
Leaving 1/x+4
Preliminary Problem
Givens
Miles = m = 392 miles
Gallons = G = 14 gallons
Miles per gallon = mpg
Formula
miles = miles per gallon * number of gallons.
Solve
392 = mpg * 14 Divide by 14
392 / 14 = mpg
28 = mpg which is really quite good. Our vehicle gets 44 mpg but it's a 4 cylinder. It's meant to get that kind of milage.
Part A
Let x = the number of gallons used
Let y = the number of miles driven
y = k*x
Part B
y = k* x
k =28 mpg
11700 = 28*x
11700 /28 = x
x = 417.86
If this is incorrect please put some more facts in. The question does not seem complete.
If you were to make both x's equivalent, you'd have to multiply the first equation by 2 to get rid of the coefficient, 1/2. However, you'd have to multiply 2 onto -8 as well, therefore the equation would turn into x - 16 = 18. That is not equivalent to x - 8 = 18.
