The gas tank in Lou’s car holds 13 gallons of gasoline. There are already 7 gallons of gasoline in the tank. He is putting gasoline that costs $2.50 per gallon in his car. Lou spends x dollars putting gasoline in his car. Model a compound inequality for this situation.
Answers
Answer:
So the maximum amount of gasoline the tank can contain is 13 gallons and there are already 7 gallons of gasoline in the tank. Therefore, we want to make sure that the amount of gasoline put in the tank doesn't reach any higher than 13 gallon.
The amount of gasoline that Lou bought with x dollars is x/2.50 gallons.
We have the inequality:
x/2.50 + 7 ≤ 13
*If you solve it, x should be smaller or equal to $15.
The math problem can be solved by setting up a compound inequality expressing the range that Lou can spend on gasoline. This factors in the total capacity of his tank, the current amount of gas, and the price per gallon. The result is 0 <= x <= $15.
Explanation:For this problem, Lou needs to fill the remainder of his gas tank, which is 13 gallons total but already has 7 gallons. That means he needs to fill 13 - 7 = 6 gallons more. Gasoline costs $2.50 per gallon, so the total amount of money he spends, represented by x, can be calculated using the inequality $2.50 * number of gallons <= x.
But because Lou can add anywhere from 0 to 6 gallons, we will have a compound inequality. So, the inequality will be: $2.50 * 0 <= x <= $2.50 * 6.
This simplifies to 0 <= x <= $15, meaning Lou can spend anywhere from $0 to $15 on gasoline, depending on how much more he wants to put in his tank.

Answers
Answer:
Answer:
t = 3.8 s
option 3
Step-by-step explanation:
For this case we have the following equation:
h (t) = at ^ 2 + v * t + h0
Substituting values we have:
h (t) = - 16 * t ^ 2 + 60 * t + 3
We equate the equation to zero:
-16 * t ^ 2 + 60 * t + 3 = 0
We look for the roots of the polynomial:
t1 = -0.04935053979258153
t2 = 3.7993505397925817
We are left with the positive root and round:
t2 = 3.8 s
Answer:
7,55 seg
Step-by-step explanation:
Initial Velocity = 60 ft/s
High = 3ft
Acceleration = -16 ft/s2
According to the next formula
H = Vi(t) - 1/2 gt2
We got a cuadratic formula which roots are
t1 = -0,04 seg and t2 = 7,55 seg
the time not negative so t= 7,55 seg
What does it mean to be "certain" to occur?
What does it mean for an event to be "impossible" to occur?
Answers
Certain means the event will happen.
Impossible means the event would never happen.
To be "certain" to occur means the event will definitely happen without any doubt.
For an event to be "impossible" to occur means that there is no chance whatsoever that the event will happen.
When we say an event is "certain" to occur, we mean that the event will definitely happen. In terms of probability, if an event has a probability of (1) (or 100%), it is certain to occur. For example, if you flip a fair coin, the probability of it landing either heads or tails is (1), meaning it's certain to land on one of the two sides.
On the other hand, when we say an event is "impossible" to occur, we mean that the event will definitely not happen. In terms of probability, if an event has a probability of (0) (or (0%), it is impossible to occur. For example, if you roll a six-sided die and ask for a result that is not within the range of 1 to 6, the probability of that happening is (0), so it's impossible for the die to show that result.
These concepts are fundamental to understanding the certainty or impossibility of events in probability theory and are essential for making predictions and decisions based on probabilistic models.

What is the average rate of change from x = −3 to x = −4?
Answers
Answer:
-2
Step-by-step explanation:
Since it would be immensely helpful to know the equation of this parabola, we need to figure it out before we can continue. We have the work form of a positive upwards-opening parabola as
[tex]y=a(x-h)^2+k[/tex]
where a is the leading coefficient that determines the steepness of lack thereof of the parabola, x and y are coordinates of a point on the graph, and h and k are the coordinates of the vertex. We know the vertex: V(-3, -3), and it looks like the graph goes through the point P(-2, -1). Now we will fill in the work form equation and solve for a:
[tex]-1=a(-2-(-3))^2-3[/tex]
which simplifies a bit to
[tex]-1=a(1)^2-3[/tex]
and
-1 = a(1) - 3. Therefore, a = 2 and our parabola is
[tex]y=2(x+3)^2-3[/tex]
Now that know the equation, we can find the value of y when x = -3 (which is already given in the vertex) and the value of y when x = -4. Do this by subbing in the values of x one at a time to find y. When x = -3, y = -3 so the coordinate of that point (aka the vertex) is (-3, -3). When x = -4, y = -1 so the coordinate of that point is (-4, -1). The average rate of change between those 2 points is also the slope of the line between those 2 points, so we will use the slope formula to find it:
[tex]m=\frac{-1-(-3)}{-4-(-3)} =\frac{2}{-1}=-2[/tex]

What are similar triangles?Triangles with the same shape but different sizes are said to be similar triangles. Squares with any side length and all equilateral triangles are examples of related objects. In other words, if two triangles are similar, their corresponding sides are proportionately equal and their corresponding angles are congruent.
We have three similar triangles because each has a right angle and shares an angle. Let's write the angles in order: opposite to the short leg, long leg, and the hypotenuse.
CAB ≡ BAD ≡ CBD
Or as ratios,
CA:AB:CB = BA:AD:BD = CB:BD:CD
We also know
AC = AD + CD
(AD+CD):AB:CB = BA:AD:BD = CB:BD:CD
(AD+CD)/CB=CB/CD
Let CD = x
(5 +x )/6 = 6/x
(5+x)*x = 6*6
5x + x² = 36
x² + 5x - 36 = 0
x² + 9x -4x -36 = 0
x(x+9 ) -4 (x +9 ) = 0
(x-4)(x+9) = 0
x= 4, -9

Line CD passes through (0, 1) and is parallel to x + y = 3. Write the standard form of the equation of line CD. x + y = 1 x – y = 1 x + 1 = y x + y = 11
Answers
ANSWER
x+y=1
EXPLANATION
We want to find the equation of line CD which passes through (0, 1) and is parallel to x + y = 3.
In slope intercept form, the given line is
y=-x+3
The slope of this line is m=-1
Line CD also has the same slope
The equation is given by:
y=mx+b
The given point (0,1) means the y-intercept;is b=1
Hence the equation is
y=-x+1
In standard form the equation is:
x+y=1
Answer:
The answer is x + y = 1
Step-by-step explanation:
Given: Line CD passes through (0, 1) and is parallel to x + y = 3.
We know that if two line are parallel then they have equal slopes.
Thus, the slope of line = slope of line x + y = 3
x + y = 3 when we compare this to the standard linear equation
= 3 - x
y = m x + c .we get m = -1 .
The slope of CD (m)= -1
Now, the equation of line CD passing through (0,1) is given by :-
( y - 1 ) = m ( x - 0 )
⇒ ( y - 1 ) = ( -1 ) x
⇒ x + y = 1
The equation of line CD = x + y = 1

Final answer:
To find the probability that a voter did not vote for a new school tax when 2/5 did, subtract 2/5 from 1 to get 3/5, then convert to a percentage to get 60%.
Explanation:
In the given problem, we know that 2/5 of the voters voted for a new school tax. To find the probability that a randomly selected voter did not vote for the tax, we need to calculate the fraction of those who did not vote for the tax. Since the total probability must be 1 (or 100%), those who did not vote for the tax would account for the remaining fraction of 1 - 2/5, which is 3/5. To express this as a percentage, we convert 3/5 into a decimal and then into a percentage.
First, calculate 3/5 as a decimal: 3/5 = 0.6. Then, to convert it to a percentage, multiply by 100: 0.6 × 100 = 60%.
Therefore, the probability that a randomly selected voter did not vote for the new school tax is 60%, which corresponds to answer choice c. 60%.

Answer:
Second option
g(x), and the maximum is 5.’
Step-by-step explanation:
In the graph it can easily be seen that the maximum value reached by the function f(x) is y = 3.
Then, the function g (x) is:
[tex]g(x) = 3cos(\frac{1}{4}(x + \frac{1}{3}x)) + 2[/tex]
By definition the function
[tex]y = cos(x)[/tex] reaches its maximum value when x = 0, [tex]2\pi[/tex], [tex]4\pi[/tex], ..., [tex]2k\pi[/tex]
So
When [tex](\frac{1}{4}(x + \frac{1}{3}x)) = 0[/tex] entonces [tex]cos((\frac{1}{4}(x + \frac{1}{3}x)) = 1[/tex].
Thus:
[tex]g(0) = 3(1) + 2\\\\g(0) = 5[/tex].
Therefore the function that has the greatest maximum is g(x) when [tex]g(x) = 5[/tex]
The answer is the second option
