The equation that models this situation is z = 7.9y + 12.

A linear equation is a function that has a single variable raised to the power of 1.  An example is x = 4y + 2.

Where:

  • 2 is the constant
  • x = dependent variable
  • y = independent variable  

From the equation given, 12 would be the constant, the independent variable would be 7.9 and z would be the dependent variable.

z = 7.9y + 12

Here is the complete question: A barrel of oil was filled at a constant rate of 7.9 gal/min. The barrel had 12 gallons before filling began. write an equation in standard form to model the linear situation.

Please help with question 6, 7, 8, and 9 about rational and irrational numbers
aliina [53]
6. When we multiply two surdic integers, we can leave it into one big surd.
For instance, if we have:

\sqrt{a} \cdot \sqrt{b}, we can simplify it down to one uniform square root sign, \sqrt{ab}.

So, we can say: 3\sqrt{2} \cdot 8\sqrt{18} = 24\sqrt{36}, which is a rational root, because the square root of 36 can be converted into an integer, namely 6 and -6.

Hence, it is a rational root.

7. The summation, on the other hand, cannot be simplified any further, so it will stay as irrational. This is because √2 is already an irrational root, and adding it onto a number that is rational will stay as irrational.

8. Once again, the summation cannot be simplified. We can only simplify by factoring like terms. Hence, this must be irrational.

9. Even if it is in fractional notation, √5 can never be a rational number because no two integers when multiplied by itself will give 5. So, even if it is written in fractional form, they cannot be rational if there is an already irrational term in it.

Find the distance that the earth travels in eight days in its path around the sun. assume that a year has 365 days and that the
lora16 [44]
The speed of earth will be found as follows:
speed=distance/time
distance=93 million
time=365
speed=(93)/365=254, 794.5205 mi/day
thus distance moved for 8 days will be:
distance=speed*time
=(254794.5205)×8
=2,038,356.164 miles
