Yomaro is buying soil for his garden. He needs to fill one pot with 12 cups of soil and another pot with 2 gallons of soil.

A barrel in Jim's yard contains 60 gallons of water. Water leaks out of the barrel at a rate of 1 gallon every 10 minutes. Creat

emmainna [20.7K]

Answer:

$y=-0.10x+60$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

y -----> gallons of water remaining in the barrel

x-----> number of minutes elapsed

we know that

Water leaks out of the barrel at a rate of 1 gallon every 10 minutes

so

$1/10=0.10\frac{gal}{min}$

The linear equation that represent this situation is

$y=-0.10x+60$

An equation is written to represent the relationship between the temperature in Alaska during a snow storm, y, as it relates to

Serhud [2]

Answer:

either of ...

• quadrant 1 only

• quadrant 1 and 4 only

Step-by-step explanation:

Time since the storm started is always positive. The values of x are positive in quadrants 1 and 4.

Temperatures in a blizzard are not always terribly cold. Some of the coldest snowstorms on record have temperatures in the range of +5 °F to +18 °F. These values are negative temperatures on the Celsius scale, so the quadrant used for plotting them will depend on the temperature scale you choose.

While temperatures in Alaska can be well below zero (on either the F or C temperature scales), the air usually has to warm up to the range indicated above before it can snow. US temperatures are generally reported using the Fahrenheit scale, but weather records are often kept using the Celsius scale.

I would be inclined to choose "Quadrant 1 and 4 only", but arguments can be made for "1 only" and "4 only" as suggested above.

A home’s value increases at an average rate of 5.5% each year. The current value is $120,000. What function can be used to find

lyudmila [28]

Answer:

$f(x)=120000 \times (1.055)^{x}$

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that the present value for the home is $120,000 and the rate of interest is 5.5% i.e. 0.055.

We will use the following formula:

$f(x)=P \times (1+r)^{x}$

where $P$ is the present value, $r$ is the rate of interest and $x$ is the number of years.

Substituting the values in the above formula to get:

$f(x)=120000 \times (1+0.055)^{x}$

$f ( x ) = 120000 \times ( 1.055 ) ^ { x }$

maria and her sister each have a salad and a drink for lunch at a restaurant. a salad costs $4.75 and a drink costs $1.65. what

oksano4ka [1.4K]

The salads in total are $9.50
The waters in total are $3.30

together the total cost is $12.80

First, convert the 15% to an actual number that can be used in a calculation. For percents, this is always done by simply dividing the percent (in this case 15%) by 100%. So, the conversational term "15%" becomes 15% / 100% = 0.15 in terms of a real mathematical number.

Second, you need to find out what 15% of your $12.80 meal cost is. This is always done by multiplying 0.15 by $12.80, or

0.15 x $12.80=$1.92.

So, the amount of tip you are going to leave is $1.92.

This makes the total cost of your meal (to write on your charge slip or other payment)

$12.80 + $1.92 = $14.72.

A group of people are spinning a spinner that is separated into eight equal parts. Group One spins the spinner eight times. Grou

algol13

if the number of times spun is not a multiple of 8, it is impossible to land on an exactly even distribution for this spinner. But since the probabilities of landing on an exactly even distribution are so small, that detail doesn't perturb the overall trend, except perhaps down at n=8 spins So group 3
