*Sorry I messed up my math please read the new answer.
Use distrubitive property to get rid of parentheses. Multiply -3 by 4r and -8 to get -12r+24=36. Then zero out 24 by subtarcting 24 from both sides. You. should then have -12r=12. Divide by -12 on both sides to get r by itself. Your answer should be r=1*. Hope this helps :)
Answer:
Cory bought 6.47 gallons
rate of change is $2.78 per gallon
Step-by-step explanation:
cost of gas per gallon = $2.78
it means that if one buy 1 gallon he will have to pay $2.78 and similary for each increase in 1 gallon of gallon gas he will have to pay $2.78.
Thus, rate of change is cost of gas per gallon as cost to buy gas changes with the change in quantity of gallon.
Let the quantity of gas bought be x gallon.
Total cost for x gallons = cost of gas per gallon*x = 2.78x
Given that total money paid by him is $18
2.78x = 18
x = 18/2.78 = 6.47
Thus, Cory bought 6.47 gallons
rate of change is $2.78 per gallon
The formula for finding the surface area of a cube is A=6y^2 where y is the side length. we know a=96. so we just isolate y.
96/6= 6y^2 / 6
16=y^2
sqrt (16) = sqrt(y^2)
4=y
So y is 4
