Answer: 348.8 miles on 16 gallons of gas
Step-by-step explanation:
Make the following proportion:
= 
Since the car consumes gas at the same rate and only the amount of gas is changed, these two fractions must be equivalent. If the rate at which the car consumes gas changes, it would be different.
Use basic algebraic skills and you should get 348.8 miles.
Using the dot product:
For any vector x, we have
||x|| = √(x • x)
This means that
||w|| = √(w • w)
… = √((u + z) • (u + z))
… = √((u • u) + (u • z) + (z • u) + (z • z))
… = √(||u||² + 2 (u • z) + ||z||²)
We have
u = ⟨2, 12⟩ ⇒ ||u|| = √(2² + 12²) = 2√37
z = ⟨-7, 5⟩ ⇒ ||z|| = √((-7)² + 5²) = √74
u • z = ⟨2, 12⟩ • ⟨-7, 5⟩ = -14 + 60 = 46
and so
||w|| = √((2√37)² + 2•46 + (√74)²)
… = √(4•37 + 2•46 + 74)
… = √314 ≈ 17.720
Alternatively, without mentioning the dot product,
w = u + z = ⟨2, 12⟩ + ⟨-7, 5⟩ = ⟨-5, 17⟩
and so
||w|| = √((-5)² + 17²) = √314 ≈ 17.720
Answer:
EG = 19
Step-by-step explanation:
* Lets explain how to solve the problem
- If a line bisects another line that means the point of intersection
divides the second line into two equal parts
∵ EF bisects CD at G
∴ CG = GD
∵ CG = 5x - 1
∵ GD = 7x - 13
∴ 7x - 13 = 5x - 1
* Lets solve the equation
∵ 7x - 13 = 5x - 1
- Subtract 5x from both sides and add 13 to both sides
∴ 7x - 5x = 13 - 1
∴ 2x = 12
- Divide both sides by 2
∴ x = 6
- Point G divides EF into two parts EG and GF
∴ EF = EG + GF
∵ EF = 6x - 4
- Substitute the value of x to find EF
∵ x = 6
∴ EF = 6(6) - 4 = 36 - 4 = 32
∴ EF = 32
∵ GF = 13
- Substitute the values of EF and GF in the equation of EF
∴ 32 = EG + 13
- Subtract 13 from both sides
∴ 19 = EG
* EG = 19
Answer:
x = -3
Step-by-step explanation:
(x - 2)^3 + 13 = -112
Subtract 13 from both sides
(x - 2)^3 = -125
Take the cube root of both sides
x - 2 = -5
Add 2 to both sides
x = -3
