Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Last week, burton paid $36.80 for 11 1/2 gallons of gas. Converting 11 1/2 gallons of gas to decimal, it becomes 11.5. The rate at which Burton bought one gallon of gas last week would be

36.80/11.5 = $3.2

The cost per gallon of gas increased by 5% between last week and this week. The amount by which it increased would be

5/100 × 3.2 = 0.05 × 3.2 = $0.16

The cost of one gallon of gas for this week would be

3.2 + 0.16 = $3.36

She bought 9 1/4 gallons of gas this week. Converting 9 1/4 gallons of gas to decimal, it becomes 9.25 gallons of gas. The amount that she paid for gas this week would be

9.25 × 3.36 = $31.08

Max invests some money in a savings bond.
WITCHER [35]

Answer:

£288150

Step-by-step explanation:

We'll use the formula

PRT/100= interest

But in this case we are looking for principal P

Rate= 2%

Interest= £5763

T=1

P= (I*100)/(RT)

P= (5763*100)/(2*1)

P= 288150

The principal is £288150

Pooja's plant began sprouting 2days before Pooja bought it, and she had it for 98 days until it died. At its tallest, the plant
taurus [48]

Given that function H(t) models the height of Pooja's plant (in centimeters) where t is the number of days after she bought it.

Now we have to find about which number type is more appropriate for the domain of h. That means what values can be taken by the variable "t".

Since t is number of days not the hours so t will not use decimal or fraction values. It can use integer values for the number of days.

Since time is counted after she bought the plant then number of days will be positive.

Hence answer for the type of domain can be positive integers or you can say integers greater than or equal to 0.

Which equation can pair with x + 2y = 5 to create an inconsistent system?
Charra [1.4K]
X + 2y = 5
x = 5 - 2y

2x + 4y = 3
2(5-2y) + 4y = 3
10 - 4y + 4y = 3
10 ≠ 3

5x + 2y = 3
5(5-2y) + 2y = 3
25 - 10y + 2y = 3
-8y = 3 - 25
-8y = -22
y = -22/-8
y = 2.75

6x + 12y = 30
6(5-2y) + 12y = 30
30 -12y + 12y = 30
30 = 30

3x + 4y = 8
3(5-2y) + 4y = 8
15 - 6y + 4y = 8
-2y = 8 - 15
-2y = -7
y = -7/-2
y = 3.5

An inconsistent system is a system of equation that has NO SOLUTIONS.

2x + 4y = 3 is the equation to be paired with x + 2y = 50 to create an inconsistent system.
