Answer:

  a) -3 gallons per hour

  b) y = -3x +14

Step-by-step explanation:

Rate of change is computed by dividing the amount of change by the interval over which it occurred.

<h3>a)</h3>

Here the amount of gas decreased from 14 to 2 gallons, so a decrease of 14-2 = 12 gallons. That occurred over a 4-hour period, so the rate of change is (-12 gallons)/(4 hours) = -3 gallons/hour.

__

<h3>b)</h3>

The initial amount was 14 gallons, so the equation for the line describing remaining gas will be ...

  y = -3x +14 . . . . gas in the tank after x hours

find the simple interest earned, to the nearest cent, for each principal, interest rate, and time.$750 - 7% - 3 years
Phoenix [80]

We have to apply the simple interest formula:

I = p x r x t

Where :

I = interest

p = principal amount

r= interes rate ( in decimal form, percentage divided by 100)

t= time (years)

Replacing with the values given:

I = 750 x (7/100) x 3

I = 750 x 0.07 x 3

I = $157.7

Help me pls!<br> Find f( - 3) × g(4), for f(x) = x^ - 3 and g(x) = x^½ .
madreJ [45]

Answer:

-54

Step-by-step explanation:

Find f( - 3) × g(4),

for f(x) = x^ - 3

f(-3) = -3^ - 3= -3 × -3 × -3= -27

and g(x) = x^½

g(4) = 4^½ = 2^2^½ = 2 ^1 = 2

f( - 3) × g(4) = -27 ×2 = -54
