120/100 = x/15
100x = 1800 (Divide by 100 on both sides)
x = 18
Answer:
a) -3 gallons per hour
b) y = -3x +14
Step-by-step explanation:
Rate of change is computed by dividing the amount of change by the interval over which it occurred.
<h3>a)</h3>
Here the amount of gas decreased from 14 to 2 gallons, so a decrease of 14-2 = 12 gallons. That occurred over a 4-hour period, so the rate of change is (-12 gallons)/(4 hours) = -3 gallons/hour.
__
<h3>b)</h3>
The initial amount was 14 gallons, so the equation for the line describing remaining gas will be ...
y = -3x +14 . . . . gas in the tank after x hours
Oh, you're from connexus right? Well the answer is ounces
.4^6 = .004096 Hoped this helps.
The angles must add to 180 degrees.
Since the angles are in the ratio 7:9:4, their measures are not 7, 9, and 4 since 7, 9, and 4 do not add to 180. If you multiply 7, 9, and 4 by the same number, the new numbers will be in the same ratio. Since we do not know what that number is, we can use x for it.
Multiply 7, 9, and 4 by x to get
7x, 9x, and 4x.
Now add them and set equal to 180.
Then solve for x.
7x + 9x + 4x = 180
20x = 180
x = 9
Now that we know x equals 9, substitute x with 9 and evaluate 7x, 9x, and 4x to find the actual angle measures.
7x = 7 * 9 = 63
9x = 9 * 9 = 81
4x = 4 * 9 = 36
The angles measure 63, 81, and 36 degrees.
