Debora [2.8K]1 year ago

Answer:

a) No because the gallons and quarts of oil you and your friend bought is proportional.

b) Yes because the gallons and quarts of oil are no longer proportional.

c) 1 gallon of gasoline = $3.55

   1 quart of oil = $5.00

Step-by-step explanation:

Let g = cost per gallon of gasoline

Let q = cost per quart of oil

a)  Creating expressions from the given information:

10g + 2q = 45.50

5g + q = 22.75

From inspection, we can see that if we multiply the second equation by 2, it will give us the first equation.  Therefore, they are proportional and we cannot determine the variables.

b) Creating expressions from the given information:

10g + 2q = 45.50

5g + q = 22.75

8g + 2q = 38.40

From inspection, we can see that the third equation is not proportional to equations 1 and 2.  Therefore, we can use this equation with either of the other equations to determine the variables.

c)

Using equations 2 and 3 from the previous part (b):

5g + q = 22.75

8g + 2q = 38.40

Rewrite 5g + q = 22.75 to make q the subject:

⇒ q = 22.75 - 5g

Substitute into 8g + 2q = 38.40 and solve for g:

⇒ 8g + 2(22.75 - 5g) = 38.40

⇒ 8g + 45.5 - 10g = 38.40

⇒ 2g = 7.1

⇒ g = 3.55

Substitute found value for g into q = 22.75 - 5g and solve for q:

⇒ q = 22.75 - (5 x 3.55)

⇒ q = 5

What are the domain and range of f(x) = |x – 3 | + 6? Domain: {x | x is all real numbers} Range: {y | y ≥ 6} Domain: {x | x ≥ 3}
VARVARA [1.3K]

Answer:

Domain: {x | x is all real numbers} Range: {y | y ≥ 6}

Step-by-step explanation:

Domain is the set of all x values. No operations restrict the domain in this case. The domain is all real numbers.

Range is the set of all y values. Absolute value has a v shape starting at 0. Adding 6 raises this vertex to 6. The range is therefore all numbers greater than or equal to 6.

Dubnium-262 has a half-life of 34 s. How long will it take for 500.0 grams to
dmitriy555 [2]

Answer:

the time taken for the radioactive element to decay to 1 g is 304.8 s.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given;

half-life of the given Dubnium = 34 s

initial mass of the given Dubnium, m₀ = 500 grams

final mass of the element, mf = 1 g

The time taken for the radioactive element to decay to its final mass is calculated as follows;

1 = 500 (0.5)^{\frac{t}{34}} \\\\\frac{1}{500} =  (0.5)^{\frac{t}{34}}\\\\log(\frac{1}{500}) = log [(0.5)^{\frac{t}{34}}]\\\\log(\frac{1}{500})  = \frac{t}{34} log(0.5)\\\\-2.699 = \frac{t}{34} (-0.301)\\\\t = \frac{2.699 \times 34}{0.301} \\\\t = 304.8 \ s

Therefore, the time taken for the radioactive element to decay to 1 g is 304.8 s.

Which ordered pair is the solution to the system of equations?
SOVA2 [1]
To find the solution, we use the substitution method. 

x+y=-1
<span>x-3y=11
</span>
x+y = -1-y
  -y       

x = -1-y

Now apply the value of x into the other equation.

x-3y=11
-1-y-3y = 11

Combine like terms

-4y -1 = 11
       +1    +1
-4y = 12

-4y = 12
-4y/-4 = 12/-4
y = -3

Now, apply the value of Y to one equation to find x.

y = -3

x -3 = -1
   +3   +3  
 
x= 2

Now we have the value for both, x and y.
x = 2
y =-3

Final answer: A. <span>(2, −3)</span>
