Answer:

Answer:160 miles


Explanation:

You can work out this type of question by using the 'unitary' method, which means finding out how much for ONE.


If you set out the steps with short sentences it will be clearer.


 

On 15 gallons, a car can travel 400 miles÷15↓

On 1 gallon, a car can travel 400÷15=262


miles


Once you know the distance travelled on 1 gallon of fuel, you can work out the distance travelled for any number of gallons.


 

On 6 gallons the car can travel

6

×

26

2

3

miles.

(6 times further than on 1 gallon)


6

×

80

3

=

160

miles

Find an equation for the nth term of the arithmetic sequence.
amm1812

Answer:

a_n=-301 +37(n-1)

Step-by-step explanation:

arithmetic sequence formula:  a_n=a +(n-1)d

where a is the first term and d is the common difference

Given:

  a_{10}=32

⇒ a +(10-1)d=32

⇒ a+9d=32

Given:

    a_{12}=106

⇒ a +(12-1)d=106

⇒ a+11d=106

Rearrange the first equation to make a the subject:

a = 32 - 9d

Now substitute into the second equation and solve for d

    (32 - 9d) + 11d = 106

⇒ 32 + 2d = 106

⇒ 2d = 106 - 32 = 74

⇒ d = 74 ÷ 2 = 37

Substitute found value of d into the first equation and solve for a:

a + (9 x 37) = 32

a + 333 = 32

a = 32 - 333 = -301

Therefore, the equation is: a_n=-301 +37(n-1)

Find the range of f
Ugo [173]
Write down y=f(x) and then solve the equation for x, giving something of the form x=g(y).
Find the domain of g(y), and this will be the range of f(x). ...
If you can't seem to solve for x, then try graphing the function to find the range.

Need help with this one also
andriy [413]

Answer:

scale factor 3 is the answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

Length = 18 in

Breadth = 3 in

height = 10 in

Volume of cuboid = l × b × h

V = 18 × 3 × 10

V = 540 in³

540 in³ is the original volume. The volume needs to be tripled, so multiply the original volume with 3

V = 540 × 3 = 1620 in³

∴ 1620 in³ will be the new volume if it's tripled and the scale factor is 3.

it costs $36.75 for 3 tickets to visit the science center. it costs $51 for 4 tickets to visit the zoo. which attraction will co
lord [1]

Find the cost for one ticket for the science center.

36.75 ÷ 3 = 12.25

Multiply the product with 12 to get the cost of 12 tickets.

12.25 × 12 = 147

Find the cost of 1 zoo ticket.

51 ÷ 4 = 12.75

Find the cost of 12 tickets by multiplying the product and 12

12.75 × 12 = $153

12 Science Center Tickets cost $147

12 zoo tickets cost $153


The <u><em>Zoo</em></u> costs more than the Science Center.


To find out how much more the Zoo costed, subtract 147 from 153.

153 - 147 = 6

The zoo only costs <u><em>$6 </em></u>more for 12 students.

So, you're answers are Zoo and $6
