People use water to cook, clean, and drink every day. An estimate of 15.5% of the water used each
day is for cooking. If a family uses 68.2 gallons of water a day for cooking, how many gallons do they use every day?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

260 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

An estimate of 26.5​% of the water used each day is for cleaning and a family uses 68.9 gallons of water a day for cleaning​,

Percentage of water used for cleaning= 26.5%

Gallons of water used for cleaning= 68.9

Let the number of gallons used everyday be represented by g. This will give:

26.5% of g = 68.9

26.5/100 × g = 68.9

0.265 × g = 68.9

0.265g = 68.9

Divide both side by 0.265

0.265g/0.265 = 68.9/0.265

g= 260

260 gallons of water are used everyday

Given the function h(x) = -x2 -X2 – 5x + 8, determine the average rate of change of the function over the interval -4 < x < -2​

Answers

Hi there!

[tex]\large\boxed{\text{Average rate = 1}}[/tex]

We can calculate the average rate of change using the following:

[tex]ARC = \frac{f(b)-f(a)}{b-a}[/tex]

Thus, we can plug in the endpoints of -4 and -2. Find the corresponding y-values for these x-values:

f(-2) = -(-2)² - 5(-2) + 8  = -4 + 10 + 8 = 14

f(-4) = -(-4)² - 5(-4) + 8 = -16 + 20 + 8 = 12

Plug in the solved for values into the ARC equation:

[tex]ARC(slope) = \frac{14-12}{-2(-4)} = \frac{2}{2} = 1[/tex]

NO LINKS ACCEPTED -The robot factory is a learning center where children can build robots. The project fee per visit is $15 and each hour of time (x) at the factory costs $4. Jesse goes to the robot factory one afternoon and was charged $40 for the visit. Write an equation that models this situation where X is the number of hours Jesse stands at the robot factory

Answers

Answer:

15 + 4x = 40

Step-by-step explanation:

To construct this equation, we'll list all the values we will include first.

The total fee equals $40, so we'll put 40 on one side of the equation.

On the other side, we have to put the values that make up the total. The fee is made with the project cost plus the hourly rate. The first part of this is the beginning cost, $15. Added to this is the hourly cost, $4, times the number of hours spent. So, the other side of the equation is 15 (the starting cost) plus 4 (the rate) times x (the unknown number of hours).

So, our equation is 15 + 4x = 40.

Step-by-step explanation:

1) split the figure so you can find the volume of two rectangular prisms.

2) Find the volume of the first rectangular prism with the measurements of 2,       5, and 8. So the volume is 80

3) Find the volume of the second rectangular prism with the measurements of 4, 2, and 8. So you have 64

4) Add the two values 80+64.

5) Then that's your answer; 144

Out of Koley's 15 plants, 6 were carrots. What percentage of plants are carrots?

**And don’t even bother putting a link...

Answers

Answer:

40%

Step-by-step explanation:

➡6/15×100

➡600/15

➡40%

Answer: 40% of the plants are carrots

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to figure out the percentage, we have to find what "part" of the "total" are the carrots, which is given. We already know that 6 of the total 15 plants are carrots. When referring to a percentage, basically we are trying to find out how many carrots there would be, if we were to have 100 plants. So, in order to do so, we would need 100 plants. I'll make it even more simple:

We have 15 plants - 6 of which are carrots

If we were to have

100 plants         - HOW MANY would be carrots??

The answer to our question is also the percentage we are looking for. If we replace HOW MANY with x, than we would have this equation: 15*x=6*100, so 15x=600 and x=40, so the percentage is 40%.

In order to make this easier, as i said in the beginning we are referring to the part of a total, with given numbers, so if we would divide 6 out of 15, we would have 6/15=0.4 , multiplying that number with 100 (for the percentage), you get 40% again, with a faster and easier way. Practice makes perfect.

Step-by-step explanation:

A variable y varies directly with x and the constant of variation is 3. What is the value of y when x = 2?

Answers

Answer:

y = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

y varies directly with x

y = k*x

Where,

k = constant of variation

Find y when x = 2 and constant of variation,k =3

y = k*x

y = 3 * 2

y = 6

Check:

if y = 6 and x = 2, find k

y = k*x

6 = k*2

6 = 2k

k = 6/2

k = 3

a = 1

b = 6

c = 6

axis of symmetry =  -(6) / 2*1

= -6 /2

= -3

vertex = ( -3,  -3 )   :)

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

a = 1 because if is not written what x^2 multiply, it means that x^2 multiply 1

b = 6  b is the term that multiply x

c = 6  c is the therm without x

axis of symetry = -6/2 = -3

the x of vertex is same of the axis of the symmetry so it is -3

if we subistute x with this value we can find the y of vertex

(-3)^2 + 6(-3) + 6 = 9 -18 + 6 = -3

Vertex (-3, -3)

48 square. Units

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Triangle and rectangle have the same base, b and height, h

AREA of triangle = 0.5 * base * height

48 = 0.5 bh

bh = 0.5 * 48

bh = 96

Total area of section 1 & 2 :

bh = area of triangle + x

X = bh - area of triangle

X = 96 - 48
