The price of a gallon of unleaded gas has dropped to 2.85 today. Yesterday's price was 2.91. Find the percentage decrease. Round your answer to the nearest tenth of a percent.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

2.85 divided by 2.91 is 0.97938144329

so about 97.9 percent 2.1 percent decrease

Answer 2

Answer:

2.1

Step-by-step explanation:

put change over original times percent over 100

so .06 times 100 is 6 and 6 divided by 2.91 is 2.06 and rounding to the nearest tenth would be 2.1%

78 decreased by half a number is 45 Find the number

Answers

78 - 45 = 33
Since it’s half a number you do
33 x 2 = 66
So the answer is 66

Answer:

number is 66

Step-by-step explanation:

let the number be n , then

78 - [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] n = 45 ( subtract 78 from both sides )

- [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] n = - 33 ( multiply both sides by - 2 to clear the fraction )

n = 66

The required number is 66

Perpendicular lines have the product of their gradient equal to -1

For L1,the gradient is 3

For L2,we express in slope-intercept form

6y=1-2x

y=1/6-⅓x

The slope is -⅓

Now product of both slopes 3×-⅓=-1,thus the lines are perpendicular

Your friend tried putting away the sugar for you and cannot get the 14 cups of sugar to fit in the containers! They determined you would need 9 containers to store the 14 cups of sugar.

They show you their calculations:



Answer the following questions.

What mistake did your friend make in calculating the number of containers needed?
*Hint* Look closely at the work shown to find the mistake

How many containers are needed to store the leftover sugar?

Answers

Answer:

21 containers

Step-by-step explanation:

When dividing fractions, you can multiply by the inverse of the fraction. For example, in this case, [tex]14 divided by \frac{2}{3} = \frac{14}{1}x\frac{3}{2}[/tex]. Whoever drew the calculations made the mistake of forgetting to flip the second fraction.

The actual solution of the problem is 42/2, or 21/1. 21 containers are needed to store the sugar.

If given 5 miles is 8km convert 13.5 miles into km

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 2 ways we can do this. We can use our friend which we will call a special device or we could actually solve using formulas we already know. Today, I will be using a formula but you can easily just use the secret device.

Step 1: Knowing the formula which is multiply miles by 1.609 and then round to the nearest tenth or hundredth.

13.5 X 1.609 = 21.7215.

Round down to 21.7.

Final Answer: 21.7 Km is equal to 13.5 miles or vice versa.

Three sisters have ages that are consecutive odd integers. The sum of the age of the youngest and three times the age of the oldest is five less than five times the middle sister’s age.

Answers

Answer:

youngest   17  

middle  19

oldest    21

Step-by-step explanation:

Three sisters have ages that are consecutive odd integers

youngest = x

middle = x + 2

oldest = x + 4

--------------------

The sum of the age of the youngest

x

and three times the age of the oldest

+ 3(x + 4)

is five less than five times the middle sister’s age

= 5(x + 2) - 5

-----------------------

x + 3(x + 4) = 5(x + 2) - 5

Distribute

x + 3x + 12 = 5x + 10 - 5

Combine like terms

4x + 12 = 5x - 5

Subtract 4x from both sides

12 = x - 5

Add 5 to both sides

17 = x

youngest   x = 17  

middle     x + 2 = 19

oldest     x + 4 = 21

what is the answer, i tried everything but i can’t seem to get the right answer

Answers

Answer:A

Step-by-step explanation: It never talks about 50 so i don't know why that is there so I think it is A because 21 dollars is more than 5+2.75, (not 100% sure but at least 85% sure)

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

The reason that this is A is because 5$ is the initial fee and you dont pay any more than that, since 21$ is the max you can afford it is going to be less than or equal to 21. and if it is 2.75$ per stop then it is the number of stops times 2.75. A is your answer.

edit: and the 50 kilometers doesnt have any value in the situation so basically it was just there to confuse you or throw you off.

if Ray OC stands on a line AB such that angle AOC = angle COB then s.t angle AOCis equals to 90​

Answers

Answer:

Since ray OC stands on line AB.  

Therefore

∠AOC + ∠COB = 180° (Linear pair of angles)

But ∠AOC = ∠COB (given)

⇒ 2∠AOC = 180°

⇒ ∠AOC = 90

Write an equation of the line in slope-intercept form.



The equation is y=
.

Answers

Answer:

y = x + 2

Step-by-step explanation:

     Slope-intercept form is y = mx + b where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept. Here, b is equal to 2 because the line crosses the y-axis at 2. THe slope is rise over run, or the change in y divided by the change in x. From the two points given, we get 3/3 which is equal to 1. 1x equals x, so this gives us "no slope." Putting it together gives us y = x + 2.

Answer:

A = (1, 10)

B = (4,10)

C = (4, 14)

D = (1, 16)

Step-by-step explanation:

Okay, so first, we move, or translate the quadrilateral PQRS down -8 spaces on the graph, turning old points:

P (1, -2) = (1, -10)     Q (4, -2) = (4, - 10)     S (1, -8) = (1, -16)     and R (4, -6) = (4, -14)

Now, we need to rotate this new box into -x, y. So our new points are:

(1, -10) = (-1, 10)     (4, -10) = (-4, 10)     (1, -16) = (-1, 16)     and (4,-14) = (-4, 14)

Now we're reflecting off the y-axis, making our x change. So for our final points:

A(1, 10)   B (4,10)    D(1, 16)    and C(4, 14)

Hope this helps! Please check my math and comment wether this worked or not! :)

hi

Step-by-step explanation:

If y = ax² + bx + c is the general form of a quadratic function, what is y = a(x - h)² + k? *
a. vertex form
b. general equation
c. point-slope form
d. slope-intercept form

How necessary is the value of a, b and c in transforming quadratic function from general to vertex form? *
a. to find the value of h and k
b. to find the number of roots
c. to determine the degree of the quadratic function
d. to determine the maximum point​

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

it is the vertex form.

remember, (h, k) is the vertex point.

the vertex being the point of the (quadratic) parabola, where the curve turns around.

depending on the orientation of the parabola (vertex up or vertex down) as defined by the sign of a, this is either the minimum or the maximum of the curve.

so, the first a. is correct.

and so is the second a., as they play an important role when completing the square and hence finishing the transformation.

Consider this function.
h(x) = (x - 2)^2+3

Which of the following domain restrictions would enable h(x) to have an inverse function?
a. x < 1
b. x >5
c. x < 3
d. x > 4

(Ps: all four answer and larger equal then or smaller equal then

Answers

Answer:

No inverse function:  (a), (b), (c)

Inverse function exists:  (d)

Step-by-step explanation:

The graph of h(x) = (x - 2)^2 + 3 is a parabola that opens upward and has vertex at (2, 3).  If the entire graph is drawn, and the horizontal line test then applied, h(x) would not have an inverse, because the horizontal line would intersect the  parabolic graph twice.

Note that if we restricted the domain to x ≥ 2, the resulting graph would pass the horizontal line test.  This would also be true for x ≥ 3, x ≥ 4, and so on.  Not so for (a) x < 1.  False for x > -5.  True for x < 3.  True for x > 4.

No inverse function:  (a), (b), (c)

Inverse function exists:  (d)

[tex]\sqrt{100}[/tex] + [24 - 15]  - (60 - 49 - 1)

[tex]\sqrt{100}[/tex] + 9 - 10

10 + 9 - 10

Answer = 9

Second Question:

5x + 2x = 7x

5x^2 + 3x^2 = 8x^2

2x + 3x - x = 4x

2x + 3y + x + y = 3x + 4y

9x - 6x = 3x

-7y + 3x + 4x + 3y = 7x - 4y

-7x^2 + 2x^2 + 9x^2 = 8x^2

(3x^2 + 5x + 4) - (-1 + x^2) = 2x^2 + 5x + 5

(3 + 2x - x^2) + (x^2 + 8x + 5) = 10x + 8

(3x - 4) - (5x + 2) = -2x - 6

(2x^2 + 5x + 3) - (x^2 - 2x + 3) = x^2 + 7x

(3x^2 + 2x - 5) - (2x^2 - x - 4) = x^2 + 3x - 1

Third Question:
