Answer:

x = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

To find this, let's use a ratio of gallons of gas to miles the car is able to travel.

160 miles / 5 gallons is equal to 96 miles / x gallons, or 160/5 = 96/x.

Cross multiply to get 160x = (5)(96)

Multiply the 96 by the 5 to get 160x = 480

Divide both sides by 160 to get x = 3.

Answer:

3 is your answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

Divide 160 by 5 and you get 32. Multiply it by 3 to get to 96 so it ends up as 3.

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

1) first there are a few rules we need to know:

a) the sum of any two sides of a triangle is always larger than the 3rd side

b) the difference between any two sides of a triangle is always smaller than the 3rd side;

hence,

3+4=7

4-3=1

triangle 3,4,5 follows all the rules,

triangle 13,2,11:

11+2=13

the sum of any two sides must always be GREATER than the 3rd side-so this is not an option

triangle 10,4,5

5+4=9

9<10

not an option

find the x-intercepts and the coordinates of the vertex for the parabola Y equals negative X squared plus 8X -12. If there’s mor
Oksanka [162]

Answer:

x = 2, and 6

x = 2 , 6

Step-by-step explanation:

The quadratic function to analyze is: y = -x^2+8x-12

In order to find where the corresponding parabola intercepts the x axis, we set it equal to zero (y = 0):

y = -x^2+8x-12\\0 = -x^2+8x-12\\x^2-8x+12=0

This equation is easy to solve by factoring. We look for a air of integer numbers whose product equals the constant term "12", and whose combinig renders the coefficient of the middle term of the trinomial "-8".

The two such numbers are "-2" and "-6". We use them to split the middle term, and then solve by factoring by grouping:

x^2-8x+12=0\\x^2-2x-6x+12=0\\(x^2-2x)+(-6x+12)=0\\x(x-2)-6(x-2)=0\\(x-2)(x-6)=0

For the product of two factors to render zero, we need either one to be a zero.This means that (x-2)=0 (that is x = 2), or (x-6)=0 (that is x = 6).

So, there are two x-intercepts: x= 2, and 6
