the first thing to note is since one gallon= 60 miles then 1/2 gallon= 30 miles, now I know 1/2 is not an answer but it is easiest to decrease in moderate amounts. 1/2 gallon= 48 Km so we are close, and 1/2=0.5 so if we brought it down to 0.42 we would have 25.2 miles and 25.2 miles = 40.32. The question wants to know the approximate number and 40.32 is the closest we are going to get so the answer is 0.42

question 3

Answer:

80 + 65x ≤ 425

Step-by-step explanation:

First of all we know that the 425 must be greater than or equal to the other side, so the symbol to show that would be ≤. We also know that the forklift is a fixed price by the words 'each day'. And the to hire a single crew member would be $65 unless there are more crew workers, which would be multiplied with the 65.

question 4

Part A

Yes y is a function of x. Specifically the equation is y = x^5

For any given input, there is exactly one output

Notice how if x = 1 then y = x^5 = (1)^5 = 1

Notice how if x = -1 then y = x^5 = (-1)^5 = -1

Notice how if x = -2 then y = x^5 = (-2)^5 = -32

Notice how if x = 2 then y = x^5 = (2)^5 = 32

In general,

x^5 = x*x*x*x*x

there are five copies of x multiplied

A more specific example

3^5 = 3*3*3*3*3

there are five copies of '3' multiplied

=====================================================

Part B

All we do is replace x with 4 and use PEMDAS to simplify

f(x) = 2x+12

f(4) = 2(4)+12

f(4) = 8+12

f(4) = 20

The value of f(4) is 20

What does it mean? It is the total cost of renting the bowling lane for 4 hours. If you rent it for four hours, then you'll pay a total of $20.

The portion 2x = 2*4 = 8 is the variable cost which depends on how long you play. The more hours, the more the variable cost goes up

The fixed cost is 12. This is always fixed as this is the price to get in the door. If you play for 0 hours, but somehow got in the door, then you still pay $12

In total, variableCost+fixedCost = 8+12 = 20 = totalCost

A grocery store sells an 18 ounce container of peanut butter for $3.28. What is the cost per ounce (unit price)?

AnnyKZ [126]

Here,
cost of 18 ounce container of peanut butter = $3.28
cost of 1 ounce container of peanut butter = $3.28/18
=$0.182

An airplane is flying at a speed of 500 mi/h at an altitude of one mile. The plane passes directly above a radar station at time

d1i1m1o1n [39]

Answer:

a) $s=\sqrt{1+d^2}$

b)d(t)=500t

c) $s(t) =\sqrt{1+250000t^2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

d = Horizontal distance

s = the distance between the plane and the radar station

The horizontal distance (d), the one mile altitude, and s form a right triangle.

So, use Pythagoras theorem

$Hypotenuse^2=Perpendicular^2+Base^2$

$s^2=1^2+d^2$

a) $s=\sqrt{1+d^2}$

(b) Express d as a function of the time t (in hours) that the plane has flown.

$distance = speed \times time$

d(t)=500t

$s(t) =\sqrt{1+d^2}$

using b

$s(t) =\sqrt{1+(500t)^2}\\s(t) =\sqrt{1+250000t^2}$

Marc mows lawns for $25 each lawn, plus $5 for every hour he spends mowing. The equation for his total earnings per lawn is y =

Mila [183]

Answer:

<h2>The flat pay $25 represents the intercept</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

To answer this question we need to first understand and compare it with the equation of straight line.

i.e $y= mx+c$ which is the equation of line

where m= slope

y= dependent variable

x= independent variable

c= intercept

Given

$y= 25+5h$

comparing both expression we can see that

25 corresponds to c which is the intercept

Frank started out in his car travelling 45 mph. When Frank was 1 3 miles away, Daniel started out from the same point at 50 mph

oee [108]

Answer:

It will take 2.6 hours by Daniel to catch up with Frank.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Daniel will catch up with Frank after t hours.

Now, Frank will go 13 miles in $\frac{13}{45} = 0.288$ hours.

So, the distance traveled by Frank in (t + 0.228) hours with 45 mph speed will be equal to the distance traveled by Daniel in t hours with 50 mph speed.

Hence, 45(t + 0.288) = 50t

⇒ 5t = 13

⇒ t = 2.6 hours.

Therefore, it will take 2.6 hours by Daniel to catch up with Frank. (Answer)

There are 3 feet in 1 yard. This is equivalent to 12 feet in 4 yards. Which proportion can be used to represent this?

Troyanec [42]

Proportion which can be used to represent equivalency of 3 feet in 1 yard and 12 feet in 4 yard is 3 : 1 : : 12 : 4

<h3><u>Solution:</u></h3>

Given that

There are 3 feet in one yard

And there are 12 feet in 4 yard

Number of feet in one yard = 3 that is feet : yard = 3 : 1

Number of feet in 4 yards = 12 that is feet : yard = 12 : 4

And 3 feet in 1 yard is equivalent to 12 feet in 4 yards means

$\frac{3}{1}=\frac{12}{4}$

That is 3 : 1 : : 12 : 4

A proportion is statement that two ratios are equal. It can be written in two ways: as two equal fractions a/b = c/d; or using a colon, a : b = c : d

Hence proportion which can be used to represent equivalency of 3 feet in 1 yard and 12 feet in 4 yard is 3 : 1 :: 12 : 4
