Answer:

6 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

You can find this using the ration method.

If, 8 gallons : 192 miles

   x gallons : 144 miles

We must find the value of x, which is the number of gallons used to travel 144 miles.

Cross multiply the ratios.

192 x = 8 × 144

192 x = 1152

x = 1152 ÷ 192

x = 6

∴ It takes 6 gallons to travel 144 miles.

Solve |2x - 5| = 4. {x | x = -4.5 or x = 4.5} {x | x = 0.5 or x = 4.5} {x | 0.5 < x < 4.5}
kotykmax [81]

<u><em>Answer:</em></u>

{x | x = 0.5 or x = 4.5}

<u><em>Explanation:</em></u>

<u>Before we begin, remember that:</u>

The modulus gives the positive value of what's inside it.

<u>This means that:</u>

|a| = |-a| = a

<u>Now, for the given, we have:</u>

|2x-5| = 4

<u>From the above rule, we can deduce that:</u>

<u>either:</u>

2x - 5 = 4

2x = 4 + 5 = 9

x = 4.5 ............> first solution

<u>Or:</u>

2x - 5 = -4

2x = 5-4 = 1

x = 0.5 ..........> second solution

<u>Now, we check:</u>

<u>at x = 4.5</u>: |2(4.5)-5| = |9-5| = |4| = 4 ..........> first solution verified

<u>at x = 0.5</u>: |2(0.5)-5| = |1-5| = |-4| = 4 .........> second solution verified

Hope this helps :)

I need help finding the domain and range of this graph
SIZIF [17.4K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Okay so to find the domain and range we need to find the x values and the y values: the domain is x and the range is y. Therefore the start of our x values can be concluded as -5 and the end is 5, so our domain will be -5 < x < 5: Note, I couldn't put the less than or equal to symbol. SO now our range is the values that are up and down, the range does down at 1 and the range is the highest at 3 so we can determine the range is 1 < y < 3. This is a continuous graph, so there is continuous x values and y values in this graph, so it's simple to use the start and the end of the domain and range followed by the possible y and x values which is represented by y and x.

Hope this helps. :)

I really need help please !!!
lisov135 [29]

Answer:

15

Step-by-step explanation:

(whole secant) x (external part) = (tangent)^2

(5+x) * 5 = 10^2

Distribute

25 +5x = 100

Subtract 25 from each side

25-25 +5x = 100-25

5x= 75

Divide by 5

5x/5 = 75/5

x = 15
