You have a function that takes in an X value and produces a Y value. The Y value equals 24 times the X value, plus 4?More. What'
guapka [62]

Answer:

100

Step-by-step explanation:

The function takes in an X value and produces a Y value.

The Y value equals 24 times the X value plus 4 more.

This means that:

Y = 24X + 4

When the X value equals 4, the Y value will be:

Y = 24(4) + 4

Y = 96 + 4

Y = 100

When the X value is 4, the Y value is 100.

troy's truck has a 30 gallon gas tank and gets an average of 21 miles per gallon.write an equation to represent the amount of ga
GuDViN [60]

Let

x---------> represent the number of miles Troy's has driven

y--------> represent the amount of gas in Troy's truck

we know that

the equation that represents the amount of gas, y, in troy' s truck after driving a certain number of miles, x is

y-y1=m*(x-x1)

where

m is the slope---------> \frac{gallon}{miles}

in this problem the slope is equal to -\frac{1}{21} \frac{gallons}{miles}

it's negative because the tank is going to be consumed

assuming he starts with a full tank

for\ x=0\ y=30\  gal

substitute in the formula above

y-y1=m*(x-x1)\\\\ y-30=-\frac{1}{21}*(x-0)\\\\ y=-\frac{x}{21}+30

therefore

the answer is

the equation y=-\frac{x}{21}+30

In the figure, angle ZYX is measured in degrees. The area of the shaded sector can be determined using the formula StartFraction
tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

<u>The given options are:</u>

(A)the central angle measure of the sector divided by the total angle measure of a circle multiplied by the area of the circle will yield the area of the sector.

(B)the central angle measure of the sector divided by the total angle measure of a circle multiplied by the circumference of the circle will yield the area of the sector.

(C)the central angle measure of the sector multiplied by the area of the circle will yield the area of the sector.

(D)the central angle measure of the sector multiplied by the circumference of the circle will yield the area of the sector.

Answer:

(A)the central angle measure of the sector divided by the total angle measure of a circle multiplied by the area of the circle will yield the area of the sector.

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of the shaded sector can be determined using the formula:

\frac{m\angle ZYX}{360^\circ} \cdot \pi r^2

m\angle XYZ=$Central angle of XYZ\\\pi r^2$=Area of a Circle

360^\circ =$Total Angle

Therefore, the formula is:

\dfrac{m\angle ZYX}{360^\circ} \cdot \pi r^2\\\text{Area of XYZ}=\dfrac{\text{Cental Angle of XYZ}}{\text{Total Angle}} X \text{Area of the Circle}

Therefore, the formula is best explained by Option A.

which of the following represents a chord, but not a diameter, of the circle? A. TS, B. SN, C.TR, D.MN
Georgia [21]

Answer: A diameter goes straight across the circle and passes through the center point (point M). A radius stops at the center point, making the line go halfway across the circle (basically half the diameter). A chord goes across the circle, but does not go through the center point. Therefore, the answer is C, because it does not go through the center point.

A rectangular prism has a volume of 170 cubic centimeters. The length of the prism is 5 centimeters, and the height of the prism
luda_lava [24]

Answer:

The width of the prism is 2 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The given parameters are;

The volume of the prism = 170 cm³

The length of the prism = 5 cm

The height of the prism = 17 cm

The volume of the prism is given by the  relationship v = Length, l × Height, h × Width, w

Therefore;

The volume of the prism = 5 cm × 17 cm × w = 170 cm³

Which gives;

w = 170 cm³/(5 cm × 17 cm) = 170 cm³/(85 cm) = 2 cm

∴ The width of the prism = 2 cm.
