Answer:
32 gallons
Step-by-step explanation:
A standard showerhead in Marty's house dispenses 7 gallons of water per minute. If he showers for 8 minutes, he uses:
1 minute = 7 gallons
8 minutes = x
x = 7 × 8 minutes = 56 gallons of water
We are told that:
Marty changed this showerhead to an energy-saving one. The equation shows the amount of water dispensed, y, as a function of the number of minutes, x, for the new showerhead. y = 3x
The equation for the energy saving shower:
y = 3x
Where x is the number of minutes spent in the shower
For 8 minutes
y = 3 × 8
y = 24 gallons
The gallons of water Marty saved each day with the change in showerheads if he uses the shower for 8 minutes each day is calculated as:
56 gallons - 24 gallons
= 32 gallons

Answer:
(0, 1): Answer D
Step-by-step explanation:
The three given vertices are (0٫ 4)٫(8٫ 4) and (8٫ 1). Note that the x-coordinates of two of these are both 8. The remaining x-coordinate of the fourth vertex is 0. Since the figure is a rectangle, there are two sets of parallel sides. If one side is x = 8, the opposite vertical side must be x = 0, since the remaining coordinate is 0. This side is a vertical line segment. The fourth and last vertex is at the intersection of x = 0 and y = 1; (0, 1): Answer D.
Answer:
x = 7.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that BE is parallel to CD and intersects the 2 other sides, then it divides the 2 sides in proportion, that is
= 
, substitute values
= 
( cross- multiply )
8x = 60 ( divide both sides by 8 )
x = 7.5
