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

a 4-meter ladder leans up a wall the foot of the ladder is 2 meters away from the wall how far up the wall will the ladder reach
svlad2 [7]
The answer is 3.46 meters

You can get the answer by using the pythagorean theorem, since the ladder and the wall form a right triangle.

c^2 = a^2 + b^2
4^2 = 2^2 + b^2
16 = 4 + b^2
12 = b^2
b = sqrt(12) or 3.46 meters

Hello!

The sum of angles on a straight line is 180°.

To find the value of angle x°, we can subtract all the given angles form 180°.

<h3>Find x</h3>
  • 180° - 60° - 30° = x°
