5 gallons x gallons
------------- = ----------------
12 hours 240 hours
using cross products
5 * 240 = 12 * x
1200 = 12 x
divide each side by 12
1200/12 = 12x/12
100 =x
You will need 100 gallons
The function f(x) is a function of the variable x.
To solve the function for x = 30, just plug in 30 for x.
14 - 0.5(30) = -1
f(30) = -1
The coordinates would be (3, 3).
The slope from R to S is given by
m = (0 - 0)/(-4-1) = 0/-5 = 0
The distance from R to S is 5 units straight across.
This means the slope from T to U will be 0, and it will be a horizontal segment. This means the y-coordinate of U will be 3, since the y-coordinate of T is 3.
The distance from T to U will be 5 as well; -2+5 = 3 for the x-coordinate.
This makes the point (3, 3).
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
1. First, put together the information we have. Total = 121. Emily has 40% more than Carl, and Carl has 60% more than Antony.
2. Next, set each person as a variable. Antony = x. Carl = 1.6x. Emily = 1.4 times 1.6x.
3. Next, form an equation using these variables.
x + 1.6x + (1.4 x 1.6x) = 121
x + 1.6x + 2.24x = 121
4.84x = 121
x = 25
4. Finally, plug in x to our previous variables in step #2 to find the number of stamps Emily and Carl have.
<u>Antony</u>: x = 25 stamps
<u>Carl:</u> 1.6x = 40 stamps
<u>Emily</u>: 1.4 times 1.6x = 56 stamps
By the way, is this for RSM? If so, I am working on that problem right now and I searched up the solution but couldn't find it, so I stumbled upon this. I hope this helped!
