Larger bottle = 44 gallons

Smaller bottle = 33 gallons

=====================================================

Explanation:

L = capacity of larger bottle

S = capacity of smaller bottle

Capacities are in gallons

We're told the ratio of these capacities is 4 to 3, meaning L/S = 4/3. Note how L goes first on top since 4 is the first number and it's larger than 3.

Cross multiply to get 3L = 4S. We can solve for S to get S = 3L/4.

----------------------------

We're also told that the larger bottle has 11 more gallons than the smaller one, so,

Larger = Smaller + 11

L = S+11

L = (3L/4) + 11 .... plug in S = 3L/4

4L = 4*(3L/4) + 4*11 ... multiply every term by 4

4L = 3L + 44 .... the fraction goes away afterward

4L-3L = 44 .... subtract 3L from both sides

L = 44

The larger bottle can hold 44 gallons

S = 3L/4

S = 3*44/4

S = 3*11

S = 33

The smaller bottle can hold 33 gallons

Note that L-S = 44-33 = 11 to show there's an 11 gallon difference between the larger and smaller bottles. We can also see that L/S = 4/3 is also true because 44/33 = 4/3. This confirms our answers.

A quadratic function is described by the equation f(x) = (x - 3) ^ 2 Which statement about the graph of the function is true?

Bond [772]

Answer: A) The only zero of the function is 3 which is where the graph of the function intersects the x-axis

Step-by-step explanation:

Remember, a quadratic function which has roots x = a, and x = b, can be written as:

p(x) = A*(x - a)*(x - b)

Where A is the leading coefficient. This is the factorized form of a quadratic.

We have the function:

f(x) = (x - 3)^2

Now, we could rewrite this as:

f(x) = (x - 3)*(x - 3) = 1*(x - 3)*(x - 3)

Then we wrote f(x) in its factorized form, from this, we can see that the roots of the function are x = 3, and x = 3 (we have the same root two times)

Then the only root of f(x) is x = 3.

Remember that a root (also called a zero) is the value of x where the function intersects the x-axis. then the correct option here is:

A) The only zero of the function is 3 which is where the graph of the function intersects the x-axis

The population of a species is modeled by the equation p(t)=-t^4+72t^2+225, where t is the number of years. find the approximate

Shtirlitz [24]

Answer:

The approximate number of years until the species is extinct will be 9 years

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given

The population of a species is modeled by the equation

$p(t)=-t^4+72t^2+225$

where

t is the number of years

we have to find time when species extinct

we know that any species will be extinct only if population of that species becomes 0

so, we can set P(t)=0

and then we can solve for t

$p(t)=-t^4+72t^2+225=0$

we can factor it

$(t^2+3)(t^2-75)=0$

$(t^2+3)=0$

we get t value as imaginary for this equation

$(t^2-75)=0$

$t=\sqrt{75}$

$t=8.660$

So,

the approximate number of years until the species is extinct will be 9 years

The faces of a cube are to be numbered with integers 1 through 6 in such a way that consecutive numbers are always on adjacent f

Blizzard [7]

Answer:

Total different ways to number the remaining faces is 10.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that consecutive numbers are always on adjacent faces (not opposite ones).

The face numbered 1 is on top and the face numbered 2 is toward the front.

Top = 1

Front = 2

The remaining faces are left right bottom back. Total possibilities are shown below.

S.no. 3 4 5 6

(1) Right Back Bottom Left

(2) Right Back Left Bottom

(3) Right Bottom Left Back

(4) Right Bottom Back Left

(5) Bottom Right Back Left

(6) Bottom Left Back Right

(7) Left Back Bottom Right

(8) Left Back Right Bottom

(9) Left Bottom Right Back

(10) Left Bottom Back Right

When Bottom=3, then we can not place 4 on back because doing this 5 and 6 are opposite ones.

Therefore, total different ways to number the remaining faces is 10.
