The scatter plot below can be used to find the approximate rate at which water flows through a garden hose. The line of best fit

for the scatter plot can be described by the equation y = 4/5x. If the rate, in gallons per minute, continues, approximately how many gallons of water will flow from the hose in 45 minutes?

Answer:

36\ \text{gallons per unit} will flow from the hose in 45 minutes.

Step-by-step explanation:

The line of best fit for the scatter plot can be described by the equation :

y=\dfrac{4}{5}x

y is amount of water in gallons

x is time

When x = 45 minutes, put x = 45 in above formula as :

y=\dfrac{4}{5}\times 45\\\\y=36\ \text{gallons per unit}

So, 36\ \text{gallons per unit} will flow from the hose in 45 minutes.

The ratios in an equivalent ratio table are 3:12, 4:16, and 5:20. If the first number in theratio is 10, what is the Second numb
Zanzabum

Answer:

10:40

Step-by-step explanation:

As the left number increases by 1, the right number increases by 4. So as you can see, the left numbers go 3-4-5 while the right numbers go 12-16-20. So the answer is 10:40 because 10x4=40.

A rectangular Corn Hole area at the recreation center has a width of 5 feet and a length of 10 feet. If a uniform amount is adde
almond37 [142]
1. The formula for calculate the area of a rectangle, is:
 
 A=LxW
 
 A is the area of the rectangle
 L is the length of the rectangle.
 W is the widht of the rectangle

2. You have that:
 
 -The<span> rectangular Corn Hole area has a width of 5 feet and a length of 10 feet, so:
 
 L1=10 feet
 W1=5 feet
 
 - When</span> a uniform amount is added to each side (x), the area is increased to 84 feet². Then, you have a different length (L2) and a different width (W2):
 
 3. The new length is:<span> 
 
 L2=L1+x+x
 L2=L1+2x
 L2=10+2x
 
 4. The new width is:
 
 W2=W1+x+x
 W2=W1+2x
 W2=5+2x
 
 5. The new area is:
 
 A2=84 feet</span>²<span>
 
 6. Then, you have:
 
 A=LxW
 84</span>=(10+2x)(<span>5+2x)
 
 7. When you apply the distributive property, you obtain a quadratic equation:
 
 4x</span>²+30x-34=0
<span> 
 8. You can solve with by applyin the quadratic formula: 
 
 x=(-b±√(b^2-4ac))/2a
 
 a=4
 b=30
 c=-34
 
 9. Then, the answer is:
 
 x=1 feet

solong [7]

Answer:

The system of three equations is equal to

x+y+z=155

y=9x

z=3y

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x ----> the number of cars rented during one month

y ----> the number of vans rented during one month

z ----> the number of trucks rented during one month

we know that

x+y+z=155 ----> equation A

y=9x ---> equation B

z=3y ----> equation C
