Dominic is driving on a long road trip. He currently has 10 gallons of gas in his car. Each hour that he drives, his car uses up 1.25 gallons of gas. Write an equation to represent the scenario. How much gas will Dominic have in 3 hours?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

(a) Equation: [tex]T_n = 11.25 - 1.25n[/tex]

(b) 7.5 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Current Gas = 10 gallon

Every Hour = -1.25 gallon

Solving for (a): An equation for the scenario

This question represents an Arithmetic Progression and will be solved using the following formula:

[tex]T_n = a + (n - 1)d[/tex]

Where

[tex]a = 10[/tex]

[tex]d = -1.25[/tex]

Substitute these values in the formula

[tex]T_n = 10 + (n - 1) * -1.25[/tex]

[tex]T_n = 10 -1.25n +1.25[/tex]

Collect Like Terms

[tex]T_n = 10 + 1.25 - 1.25n[/tex]

[tex]T_n = 11.25 - 1.25n[/tex]

Solving for (b): In this case, n - 3

Substitute 3 for n in [tex]T_n = 11.25 - 1.25n[/tex]

[tex]T_3 = 11.25 - 1.25 * 3[/tex]

[tex]T_3 = 11.25 - 3.75[/tex]

[tex]T_3 = 7.5[/tex]

7.5 gallon of gas left

What is an expression?

Expression in maths is defined as the collection of numbers variables and functions by using signs like addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division.

Numbers (constants), variables, operations, functions, brackets, punctuation, and grouping can all be represented by mathematical symbols, which can also be used to indicate the logical syntax's order of operations and other features.

The ratio of the scale of an original thing to a new object that is a representation of it but of a different size is known as a scale factor (bigger or smaller).

The area will be calculated as,

Area =  2¹/₄ x  2³/₄

Area = ( 9 / 4 ) x ( 11 / 4 )

Area = 99 / 16

Enlarged by factor 7.

Area = (99 x 7 ) / 16

Area = 43⁵/₁₆

a policeman and atheif are equidistant from the jewel bo upon considering jewel box as origin the position of policeman is(0,5).if the ordinate of the position of the theif is zero thn write the coordinates of the position of the theif

Answers

Answer:

(-5, 0) or (5, 0)

Step-by-step explanation:

Coordinates given:

Policeman = (0, 5)Box with jewel = (0, 0)Thief = (x, 0)

The distance from the policeman to the box with jewel is:

5- 0 = 5 units

The distance from the jewel box to the thief is also 5 units as they are both are equidistant from the jewel box

The x- coordinate is:

|x| = 5 ⇒ x = ± 5- 5 or 5 as it gives the same distance of 5 units

So his coordinates are (-5, 0) or (5, 0)

Step-by-step explanation:

8x+5=29, x=3

subtract 5 on each side

8x=24

then divide by 8 on both sides to isolate x

x=3

8x+5=29.3
1) move +5 to the right side
8x=29.3
2) divide 8x on both sides
x= 29.3/8

Jayana is trying to run a certain number of miles by the end of the month. If Jayana is 30% of the way to achieving her goal and she has already ran 9 miles, how many miles is she trying to run by the end of the month?

Answers

Answer: 30 miles

Step-by-step explanation: so first if Jayana is 30% of the way to achieving her goal and she has already ran 9 miles. You will have to convert 30% into a decimal. 30% is the same thing as 0.3 so, as that being said you will have to divide 9 by 0.3 because we are trying to find the miles.

Use complete sentences to describe why Set A={ XIX is an even whole number between 0 and 2) = ø

Answers

Answer:

True

Step-by-step explanation:

Set A contains an element x such that x is an even whole number between 0 and 2 is empty because there is only one whole number between 0 and 2 and that is 1. But 1 is not an even number. There is no even whole number between 0 and 2 therefore Set A = phi

An even number must be divisible by 2 but 1 is not divisible by 2. It is not an even number.

A whole number does not have fractions or decimal part. There is only one whole number between zero and two that is 1 which is not even.

Thus the given statement is true.

Step-by-step explanation:

Pythagorean theorem is a^2+b^2=c^2.

Plug the given values in to get 61^2+b^2=82^2

61^2 is 3,721 and 82^2 is 6,724.

6,724-3,721 is 3,003.

The square root of 3,003, rounded to a reasonable value, is 54.8.

The length of AC is 54.8.
