Answer:

Fraction of fire trucks = \frac{1}{4}

Total number of toy cars = 16

Step-by-step explanation:

Fraction of sports car = \frac{2}{3}

Fraction of remaining cars =1-\frac{2}{3}=\frac{3-2}{3} =\frac{1}{3}

So,

Fraction of pick up cars = \frac{1}{4}(\frac{1}{3})=\frac{1}{12}

Therefore,

Fraction of fire trucks = \frac{1}{3}-\frac{1}{12}=\frac{4-1}{12}=\frac{3}{12}=\frac{1}{4}

That is Number of fire trucks = \frac{1}{4} ( Total number of toy cars )

Number of fire trucks = 4

Total number of toy cars = 4(4)=16

Xelga [282]

The <em><u>correct answer</u></em> is:

h(t) = –16t² + 50t + 3

Explanation:

The general form of an equation such as this is h(t) = at² + v₀t + h₀, where a is the constant due to gravity, v₀ is the initial velocity and h₀ is the initial height.

We are given that the constant due to gravity is -16.

The initial velocity is 50, and the initial height is 3; this gives us the equation

h(t) = -16t² + 50t + 3

Which domain is most appropriate for a function that represents
worty [1.4K]

Answer:

whole numbers

Step-by-step explanation:

integers: numbers without fractional value in both negative and positive values.

whole numbers: numbers without fractional value in positive values

rational numbers: numbers that have repeating decimals

irrational numbers: numbers that have infinite but non-repeating decimals.

process of elimination:

Integers go negative, but in the real world laundry can't go negative. so no

whole numbers are perfect because it's positive and have no part of laundry. so yes

rational and irrational have decimal values saying that laundry can only be a certain percent even though thats not realistic. so no

A motorist is pumping gas into his car at a rate of 5/12 of a gallon every 1/24 of a minute. At this rate, how many gallons of g
kirill115 [55]

Answer:

5 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use ratios to solve

5/12 gallon        x gallons

----------------  = -------------------

1/24 minute       1/2 minute

Using cross products

5/12 * 1/2 = x *1/24

5/24 = x/24

Multiply each side by 24

24*5/24 = x/24*24

5=x

We can pump 5 gallons
