Patrick has a gas-powered boat that averages 5 miles per gallon of gasoline, and the tank holds 4 gallons. At 2 p.m., he left the dock. At 3 p.m., he was 6 miles west and 8 miles south of the dock. If he continues at this rate, in how many more hours will the tank be out of gasoline? Round to the nearest tenth if necessary.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

1 hour

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's assume that Patrick is travelling on a straight line throughout the whole path in order to minimize the distance.

The number of miles that he can travel on a full tank is:

[tex]m = 5\ mpg*4\ gallons\\m=20\ miles[/tex]

The distance travelled by Patrick in one hour (from 2p.m. to 3p.m.) is:

[tex]d^2=6^2+8^2\\d=\sqrt{100}\\ d=10\ miles[/tex]

If he is travelling at 10 miles per hour, and he could travel for a total of 20 miles, then the time remaining before the tank runs out of gasoline is:

[tex]t=\frac{20-10}{10}\\ t=1\ h[/tex]

If he continues at this rate, the gas will last for 1 more hour.

What is a function?

A function is defined as a relation between the set of inputs having exactly one output each.

All the points (and only those points) which lie on the graph of the function satisfy its equation.

Thus, if a point lies on the graph of a function, then it must also satisfy the function.

Answer:

C) distributive property

Step-by-step explanation:

To “distribute” means to divide something or give a share or part of something. According to the distributive property, multiplying the sum of two or more addends by a number will give the same result as multiplying each addend individually by the number and then adding the products together

Solve for x in the diagram below.

Answers

Answer:

x = 34

Step-by-step explanation:

The 3 labeled angles create a straight line, so that means they will add up to 180°.

(x + 12) + 100 + x = 180

2x + 112 = 180

Subtract 112 from both sides.

2x = 68

Divide both sides by 2.

x = 34

The value of x in the figure is, 34.

What is Addition?

The process of combining two or more numbers is called the Addition. The 4 main properties of addition are commutative, associative, distributive, and additive identity.

We know that;

A straight line make an angle 180°.

Hence, By the figure we get;

⇒ (x + 12)° + 100° + x° = 180°

⇒ x + 12 + 100 + x = 180

⇒ 2x + 112 = 180

⇒ 2x = 180 - 112

⇒ 2x = 68

⇒ x = 34

Suppose a telephone poll is conducted by contacting U.S. citizens via landlines about their view of gay marriage. Suppose over 50% of those called do not support gay marriage. Does that mean that you can say over 50% of all people in the U.S. do not support gay marriage? Explain.

Answers

Answer:

No

Step-by-step explanation:

The only people who were contacted were those with a landline, which is not the entire U.S. Because of the cell phone, there are many in the U.S. who do not own a landline, so this does not represent the entire U.S. population.

If over 50% said they do not support gay marriages then yes you can say that because it is factually correct. If the facts were less than 50% you could NOT say that because it is not factually correct. If EXACTLY 50% said they do not support then you would say neither more or less than 50% because it would not be factually correct.

A new car is purchased for 15700 dollars. The value of the car depreciates at 7.5% per year. To the nearest year, how long will it be until the value of the car is 10100 dollars?

Answers

It would be about 5 years

It will take almost 6 years to depreciate the value of the car to 10100 dollars.

What is Depreciation?

Depreciation is a term used to indicate the decreasing value of an asset over time due to use, unfavorable market conditions and so on.

Initial amount of the car = 15700 dollars

Depreciating percent = 7.5% = 7.5/100 = 0.075

Final amount = 10100 dollars

Number of years taken to depreciate the value of the car to 10100 dollars can be found by the formula,

A = P(1 + r)ⁿ

where A = 10100 dollars, P = 15700 dollars, r = -0.075.

10100 = 15700 (1 - 0.075)ⁿ

10100 / 15700 = (1 - 0.075)ⁿ

0.6433 = (0.925)ⁿ

Taking logarithm on both sides,

㏒ 0.6433 = ㏒ (0.925)ⁿ

We have the power rule for logarithms, ㏒ (mⁿ) = n ㏒(m)

㏒ 0.6433 = n ㏒ (0.925)

n = ㏒ 0.6433 / ㏒ (0.925)

n = 5.658 ≈ 6 years

Hence almost 6 years will be taken to depreciate the value of the car to 10100 dollars.

Could u pls show me step by step

Answers

Answer:

Area = 36 sq. units

Step-by-step explanation:

The 3 values you need to solve for the area are the top base length, bottom base length, and height.

Top base length = 7 . It's the distance between point A and B.

Bottom base length = 11. It's the distance between points C and D.

Height = 4. It's the perpendicular distance from the top to the bottom base.

The formula to solve the area of a trapezoid (or trapezium, I'm American) is:

A = [tex]\frac{1}{2}h(b_{1} +b_{2})[/tex]

Put in the numbers above for the unknowns and you will get this:

A = [tex]\frac{1}{2}(4)(7 + 11)[/tex]

Simplify:

A= [tex]\frac{1}{2}(4)(18)[/tex]

A = 2(18)

A = 36

So the answer is 36. Hope I helped!

Answer:

36

Step-by-step explanation:

top base= B(x)-A(x)= 10-3= 7

bottom base= C(x)- D(x)= 12-1= 11

height= A(y) - D(y) = B(y)- C(y)= 5-1=4

Area= 1/2(7+11)*4= 36

What does measuring the spread of a data set tell us, and why is that significant?

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

Measure of spread is used in describing the variability in a sample.

Examples of measure of spread are: Mean, Median and Mode.

A measure of spread helps in giving an idea of how well the mean, or mode, or median, whichever of the three measure of spreads we use, represents the data under consideration. If the spread of values in the data set is large, that means there a lot of variation between the values of the data set. It is always better to have a small spread.

Answer:

Measuring the spread of a data set tells us how far are the values of data set to respect the mean. For example, large mean absolute deviation (MAD) value indicates that the values of data set are very different from the mean, i. e., they are very spread. Therefore, the mean is not representative of the data. On the other hand, in a small spread case, the mean is representative.
