Problem 7
Time is always an independent variable because time marches on doing its own thing without depending on external forces, or other people/things. Instead, other variables depend on time. In this case, the distance d depends on the independent variable t for time.
If the time goes up by 1 hour, then the distance variable goes up by 3 miles. In short, that tells us his speed is 3 mph.
Answer: Choice A) independent = time; dependent = distance

Problem 8
Everywhere you see an x, replace it with 9. Then use PEMDAS to simplify
f(x) = 5x - 9
f(9) = 5(9) - 9 ... x replaced with 9
f(9) = 45 - 9
f(9) = 36
Answer: 36
The answers is B.............
Let x represent the length in feet of the area along the barn wall. Then the width of the area (out from the wall) will be 450/x, and the total cost of fence will be
cost = 5*(x +2*450/x)
A graphing calculator shows the minimum of the cost function is where x=30.
In order to minimize the cost of fencing, the fourth side should be 30 ft long.
Answer:
500,000
Step-by-step explanation:
200,000 + 100,000 = 300,000 = pump B
300,000 + 200,000 = 500,000
Pump B + Pump A = Total Amount
