Answer:19.74 gallons of the gas in the tank is wasted.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the efficiency of the gas engine is 6%, wastage is #= 100 - 6 = 94%.

Therefore wastage = 94% x 21=94 x21/100=19.74 gallons

Let's put it this way:  If you plot a few non-x-intercept points and then draw a curvy line through them,you will not know if you got the x-intercepts even close to being correct. <span>The only way you can be sure of your x-intercepts is to set the quadratic equal to zero and solve. So its a matter of guessing from the pictures. Basicaly said, the calculator won't give you the exact result.</span>

over the course of numbering every page in a book, a mechanical stamp printed 2929 individual digits. How many pages does the bo
Kazeer [188]

1. Page 1-9  (1digit/page x 9page) = 9 digits = 9 page

2. Page 10-99 (2digits/page x 90page)= 180 digits = 90 page

3. Page 100-999 (3digits/page x 900page)= 2700 digits = 900 page

2,929 total digits – (9 digits + 180 digits + 2700 digits)= 40 digits

Since there are only 4 digits after page 999 we divide 40/4 = 10, thus there are 10 more pages after 999

So the book has 1009 pages.

Hope this answer will be a good help for you.

Paul [167]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the  mean incubation time for a type of fertilized egg kept at a certain temperature is 25 days.

Let X be the incubation time for a type of fertilized egg kept at a certain temperature is 25 days.

X is N(25, 1)

a) Normal curve is in the attached file

b) the probability that a randomly selected fertilized egg hatches in less than 23 days

=P(X

we convert x into Z score and use std normal distn table to find probability

P(X

i.e. we can say only 2.5% proportion will hatch in less than 23 days.
