Answer:

A car is more fuel efficient and it goes 30 miles per gallon (5/12 gallon to travel 12 1/2 miles)

Step-by-step explanation:

A car : 5/12 gallon to travel 12 1/2 miles

(12 1/2) / (5/12) =

(25/2) / (5/12) =

25/2 * 12/5 =

150/5 =

30 miles per gallon

B car : 5/7 gallon to travel 20 5/7 miles

(20 5/7) / (5/7) =

(145/7) / (5/7) =

145/7 * 7/5 =

145/5 =

29 miles per gallon

most fuel efficient is A car....it gets 30 miles per gallon

Explain why the x-coordinates of the points where the graphs of the equations y = 2−x and y = 8x+4 intersect are the solutions o
Luda [366]
Part 1)
We have two lines:  y = 2-x   and   y = 8x+4
Given two simultaneous equations that are both required to be true.
the solution is the points where the lines cross
Which is where the two equations are equal
Thus the solution that works for both equations is when
2-x = 8x+4
because
where that is true is where the two lines will cross and that is the common point that satisfies both equations.

Part 2) Make tables to find the solution to 2−x = 8x+4. take the integer values of x between −3 and 3

see the attached table
The table shows that none of the integers from [-3,3] work because in no case does
<span>2-x = 8x+4
</span>
To find the solution we need to rearrange the equation to the form x=n
2-x =8x+4
8x+x=2-4
9x=-2
x=-2/9

 The only point that satisfies both equations is
where
 x = -2/9
Find y:
   y = 2-x  = 2 - (-2/9) = 2 + 2/9 = 20/9
Verify we get the same in the other equation
y = 8x+4   =  8(-2/9) + 4 = 20/9 
Thus the only actual solution, being the point where the lines cross,
 is the point (-2/9, 20/9)------> (-0.22,2.22)

Part 3) how can you solve the equation 2−x = 8x+4 graphically?
<span>The point on the graph where the lines cross is the solution to the system of equations
</span>
using a graph tool
see the attached figure

the solution is the point (-0.22,2.22)

You want $5000 4 years from nowfor a down payment for a car. How much money must be deposited monetly into an account earning 4.
timama [110]

Answer:

$95.5090 must be deposited monthly

Step-by-step explanation:

From the information given:

The annual interest rate (r) = 4.2% = 0.042

Let assume that an amount Y is deposited, then after one month, it will increase to:

Y ( 1+ \dfrac{0.042}{12})

The total amount after 4 years will be:

= Y ( 1+ \dfrac{0.042}{12})^{48}+Y ( 1+ \dfrac{0.042}{12})^{47} +Y ( 1+ \dfrac{0.042}{12})^{46} +...+ Y ( 1+ \dfrac{0.042}{12})

= Y ( 1.0035)^{48}+Y ( 1.0035)^{47} +Y( 1.0035)^{46} +...+ Y( 1.0035)

Using the sum of a geometric progression:

= Y (1.0035) \dfrac{ (1.0035^{48}-1)}{(1.0035-1)}

= Y (1.0035) \dfrac{ (1.0035^{48}-1)}{0.0035}

The above amount is then equal to $5000

i.e

= Y (1.0035) \dfrac{ (1.0035^{48}-1)}{0.0035} = 5000

Y =  \dfrac{5000\times 0.0035}{(1.0035)(1.0035^{48}-1)} \\ \\  \mathbf{Y = \$95.5090}

What is the standard form of this equation of a circle?
Olenka [21]
<span>x² + y² + 14x − 4y − 28 = 0

x² +14x +y² - 4y =28
x²+2*7x  +7² -7²  + y² - 2*2y +2² - 2² = 28
(x+7)² + (y-2)² -7²-2² =28
</span>(x+7)² + (y-2)²=28+49+4

(x+7)² + (y-2)² =81 is the answer.
