Answer:

The mean rate of the racer is 153.8 mph.

Step-by-step explanation:

It took a race car driver 3 hours and 15 minutes to go 500 miles.

Now converting 3 hours and 15 minutes to hours.

15 minutes = \frac{15}{60}= 0.25 hours

Now, we have that it took a race car driver 3.25 hours to go 500 miles.

So, the average speed will be = \frac{500}{3.25}=153.8 mph

Hence, the mean rate of the racer is 153.8 mph.

3 x 60 (because there are 60 minutes in an hour) = 180. then 180 + 15 = 195. 500 / 195 = 2.6 miles per minute. 2.5 x 60 since its asking for miles per hour, is 156. he goes 156 miles per hour.

When you divide two fractions, you're actually multiplying one of them by the reciprocal of the other. First, find the reciprocal of the second fraction by flipping it upside down. Then, multiply it by the first fraction. (Numerator x numerator and denominator x denominator)

\frac{-7}{12} ÷ \frac{2}{3}   Replace the second fraction with it's reciprocal
\frac{-7}{12} x \frac{3}{2}   Multiply (-7 x 3 and 12 x 2)
\frac{-21}{24} Both 21 and 24 are divisible by three, so divide them by 3
\frac{-7}{8}

Arlecino [84]

Answer:

The correct answer is D.) y = -2x-3

Step-by-step explanation:

You can solve the given equation y - 5 = -2(x + 4):

y - 5 = -2(x + 4)         simplify the right side

y - 5 = -2x - 8            add 5 to both sides

y = -2x - 3

A farmer has a water tank for cows in the shape of a cylinder with a radius of 7 ft and a height of 3 ft. The tank comes equippe
natima [27]

Answer:

volume of the tank be when the sensor turns on = 92.316 ft³

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume of a cylinder = πr²h

Pi = π = 3.14

Radius = r = 7 ft

Height = h = 3 ft

Volume of a cylinder = πr²h

= 3.14 × 7² × 3

= 3.14 × 49 × 3

= 461.58 ft³

The tank comes equipped with a sensor to alert the farmer to fill it up when the water falls to 20% capacity.

volume of the tank be when the sensor turns on = 20% of Volume of a cylinder

= 0.20 * 461.58 ft³

= 92.316 ft³

volume of the tank be when the sensor turns on = 92.316 ft³
