Answer: 3/10

Step-by-step explanation: (1/5) gallon / (2/3) bin = x gallons / 1 bin cross-multiply

1/5 = (2/3)x multiply both sides by the reciprocal of 2/3 = 3/2

(3/2) (1/5) = x = 3/10 gallons fills the entire bin

Look at it this way......each 1/10 of a gallon fills 1/3 of the bin......so 3(1/10) gallons fills 3(1/3)bins....or

3/10 gallons fills a whole bin...

Answer:

We can set this up as a proportion

(1/5) gallon / (2/3) bin = x gallons / 1 bin cross-multiply

1/5 = (2/3)x multiply both sides by the reciprocal of 2/3 = 3/2

(3/2) (1/5) = x = 3/10 gallons fills the entire bin

Look at it this way......each 1/10 of a gallon fills 1/3 of the bin......so 3(1/10) gallons fills 3(1/3)bins....or

3/10 galons fills a whole bin....

What is the range of the function on the graph?all real numbersO all real numbers less than or equal to -1all real numbers less
Yuki888 [10]

The range of the function f(x) is the set of all values that function f takes.

The domain of the function f(x) is the set of all possible values for x.

From the given graph you can see that the domain is all real numbers, x\in (-\infty,\infty).

The maximal y-value that f takes is 3 at x=-1. For all another x from the domain, y is less than 3.

Thus, the range of the given function is y\in (-\infty,3].

Answer:  y\in (-\infty,3].

161 1-foot tiles.

EXPLANATION:

To find how many tiles we need,
We must find the area of the kitchen.

To find the area, you multiply
length x width

In this question,
the length is 14
the width is 11.5

14 x 11.5 is 161.

So 161 1-foot tiles to cover the kitchen.

Hope this helps! Have a gud day!

A rock thrown vertically upward from the surface of the moon at a velocity of 36​m/sec reaches a height of s = 36t - 0.8 t^2 met
Verdich [7]

Answer:

a. The rock's velocity is v(t)=36-1.6t \:{(m/s)}  and the acceleration is a(t)=-1.6  \:{(m/s^2)}

b. It takes 22.5 seconds to reach the highest point.

c. The rock goes up to 405 m.

d. It reach half its maximum height when time is 6.59 s or 38.41 s.

e. The rock is aloft for 45 seconds.

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Velocity is defined as the rate of change of position or the rate of displacement. v(t)=\frac{ds}{dt}
  • Acceleration is defined as the rate of change of velocity. a(t)=\frac{dv}{dt}

a.

The rock's velocity is the derivative of the height function s(t) = 36t - 0.8 t^2

v(t)=\frac{d}{dt}(36t - 0.8 t^2) \\\\\mathrm{Apply\:the\:Sum/Difference\:Rule}:\quad \left(f\pm g\right)'=f\:'\pm g'\\\\v(t)=\frac{d}{dt}\left(36t\right)-\frac{d}{dt}\left(0.8t^2\right)\\\\v(t)=36-1.6t

The rock's acceleration is the derivative of the velocity function v(t)=36-1.6t

a(t)=\frac{d}{dt}(36-1.6t)\\\\a(t)=-1.6

b. The rock will reach its highest point when the velocity becomes zero.

v(t)=36-1.6t=0\\36\cdot \:10-1.6t\cdot \:10=0\cdot \:10\\360-16t=0\\360-16t-360=0-360\\-16t=-360\\t=\frac{45}{2}=22.5

It takes 22.5 seconds to reach the highest point.

c. The rock reach its highest point when t = 22.5 s

Thus

s(22.5) = 36(22.5) - 0.8 (22.5)^2\\s(22.5) =405

So the rock goes up to 405 m.

d. The maximum height is 405 m. So the half of its maximum height = \frac{405}{2} =202.5 \:m

To find the time it reach half its maximum height, we need to solve

36t - 0.8 t^2=202.5\\36t\cdot \:10-0.8t^2\cdot \:10=202.5\cdot \:10\\360t-8t^2=2025\\360t-8t^2-2025=2025-2025\\-8t^2+360t-2025=0

For a quadratic equation of the form ax^2+bx+c=0 the solutions are

x_{1,\:2}=\frac{-b\pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}

\mathrm{For\:}\quad a=-8,\:b=360,\:c=-2025:\\\\t=\frac{-360+\sqrt{360^2-4\left(-8\right)\left(-2025\right)}}{2\left(-8\right)}=\frac{45\left(2-\sqrt{2}\right)}{4}\approx 6.59\\\\t=\frac{-360-\sqrt{360^2-4\left(-8\right)\left(-2025\right)}}{2\left(-8\right)}=\frac{45\left(2+\sqrt{2}\right)}{4}\approx 38.41

It reach half its maximum height when time is 6.59 s or 38.41 s.

e. It is aloft until s(t) = 0 again

36t - 0.8 t^2=0\\\\\mathrm{Factor\:}36t-0.8t^2\rightarrow -t\left(0.8t-36\right)\\\\\mathrm{The\:solutions\:to\:the\:quadratic\:equation\:are:}\\\\t=0,\:t=45

The rock is aloft for 45 seconds.
