Answer:
1) 28.4 miles per gallon
2) 34 miles per gallon
3) the red car
Step-by-step explanation:
We have the following information:
<em>Travels 35 1/2 miles on 1 1/4 gallons of gasoline</em>
<em>Travels 27 1/5 miles on 4/5 gallons of gasoline</em>
<em />
We want to know the unit rate for miles per hour, and to do it we have to divide the miles they travel by the gallons each car uses:
(35 1/2) / (1 1/4) = 28.4 miles per gallon
(27 1/5) / (4/5) = 34 miles per gallon
The red car travels greater distance with 1 gallon of gasoline
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
A shopper paid $2.52 for 4.5 pounds of potatoes. This means that the unit price for each potato would be
2.52/4.5 = 0.55556
Approximately $0.6 per pound.
The shopper paid $7.75 for 2.5 pounds of broccoli. This means that the unit price for each broccoli would be
7.75/2.5 = $3.1 per pound.
The shopper paid $2.45 for 2.5 pounds of pears. This means that the unit price for each pear would be
2.45/2.5 = $0.98 per pound
Answer:
x is equal to negative one, and y is equal to negative four.
Step-by-step explanation:
You can do this by solving one of the equations by either x or y, then substituting it into the other. Let's solve the second one for y:

Now we'll substitute that into the first equation:

So we now know that x is equal to -1. We can simply substitute that into one of the original equations to find y:

We now know that x is equal to -1, and y is equal to -4. We can also check our answer by plugging that -4 into the other equation, and see if we still get -1:

So we know that our answer is correct.
So, f(x) is a composite function. This means that g(x) is inside of h(x); in other words, you would substitute g(x) for x in h(x).
Something happened to g(x) (in the form of h(x)) to turn it into f(x). You should notice that f(x) is simply g(x) raised to the third power.
Therefore, h(x) = x^3
You can check this by working it backwards.
Start with: h(x) = x^3
Substitute: x = g(x) = 4x^2-11
Now you have: h(x) = (g(x))^3 = (4x^2-11)^3
Hope this helps!
lets start by labeling the rectangle. let w = width so length(l) = w+4 (i.e 4 more than the width)
Perimeter of a rectangle= sum of all the sides= l+ w+l+w=2l +2w
now we know that p = 2l + 2w = 100
but we know that l=w+ 4
so
2(w+4) +2w=100
2w +8 +2w = 100
4w+8 =100
4w= 92
w=23
and if we substitute into 2l+2w= 100
we will get l =27.
