) A gas station owner finds that for every penny increase in the price of gasoline, she sells 1516 fewer gallons of gas per week. How much more or less gas will she sell if she raises the price by 10 cents per gallon? If she decreases the price by 2 cents per gallon?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a) 15160 gallons

b) 3032 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that for every penny increase in the price of gasoline there is a decrease of 1516 gallons sold per week

a) when she raises the price by 10 cents per gallon

There will be a decrease of ( 1516 * 10 ) gallons sold per week i.e. = 15160 gallons

b) when she decrease the price by 2 cents per gallon

There will be an increase ( 2 * 1516 ) gallons sold per week  i.e. = 3032 gallons

A landscaping service company charges customers a one-time fee and an hourly rate of $15. For 1 hour of service, the company charges $45. Write an equation to represent the total charge C for h hours of landscaping.

Answers

Answer:

C = $30 + $15h

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Hourly rate = $15

One time fee = x

Amount charged for an hour of service = $45

Hence,

One time fee + $15* 1 = $45

One time fee = $45 - $15

One time fee = $30

Hence, total charge C for h hours of landscaping:

Total charge = one time fee + (hourly charge * number of hours)

C = $30 + $15h

medicine is given in an amount proportional to a patient's body weight. Suppose a patient weighing 119 pounds requires 136 milligrams of medicine.
What is the weight of a patient who requires 200 milligrams of medicine?

Answers

Answer:

weight of the patient = 175 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

Patient body weight : medicine

119 : 136

What is the weight of a patient who requires 200 milligrams of medicine?

Let

Patient body weight = x

Patient body weight : medicine

x : 200

Equate both proportions

119 : 136 = x : 200

119 / 136 = x / 200

Cross product

119 * 200 = 136 * x

23,800 = 136x

x = 23,800 / 136

= 175

x = 175 pounds

The teacher baked a batch of muffins there's are 16 muffin in a batch she ate 1/4 of the batch she baked two more batches how many muffins does she have now

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

she ate 1/4 of the batch = 16/4 = 4 muffins were left

she baked two more batches = 16* 2 = 32

4 + 32 = 36 muffins

or

no. of muffins in a batch: 16

no of muffins he ate = 1/4 of 16

                                 = 4

no. of muffins left: 16 - 4= 12

his mother then baked 2 more batches= 16+16

                                                                =32

no. of muffins left = 32+12 = 44

You are running an experiment in class where you draw colored marbles out of a bag. There are
eight marbles in the bag, you will draw five times, and you will replace the marble each time. How many ways can you draw the marbles out of the bag?

A: 40

B: 3,360

C: 4,096

D: 32,768

Answers

Answer:

32768 ways

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Marbles = 8 marbles

Selection = 5 (with replacement)

Required

Determine the number of ways

Because it is a selection with replacement; each selection is as follows:

[tex]First = 8\ marbles[/tex]

[tex]Second = 8\ marbles[/tex]

[tex]Third= 8\ marbles[/tex]

[tex]Fourth = 8\ marbles[/tex]

[tex]Fifth = 8\ marbles[/tex]

Total number of ways is then calculated as:

[tex]Total = 8 * 8 * 8 * 8 * 8[/tex]

[tex]Total = 32768[/tex]

What value(s) of x in the relation below would
create a set of ordered pairs that is not a function?
Justify your answer.
{(0, 5) (1, 5) (2, 6) (x, 7)}

Answers

3 Answers: x = 0, x = 1, or x = 2

==================================================

Explanation:

The relation

{(0, 5) (1, 5) (2, 6) (x, 7)}

has points with x coordinates of: 0, 1, 2, and x.

If we repeated any of the x values listed so far, then we will not have a function.

So if we had the points (0,5) and (0,7), then the input x = 0 leads to multiple outputs. A function is only possible when any input x leads to exactly one output y.

This means that if x = 0, 1, or 2, then we won't have a function.

Side note: The y values can repeat, but if they do, then we won't have a one-to-one function. In this case, y = 5 repeats, so this function is not one-to-one (assuming x is not 0, not 1, and not 2).

Jeanna is making holiday cupcakes for her family. She typically makes 2 dozen red velvet and 3 dozen gingerbread spice cake. Since everyone is staying home for the holiday, she needs to increase this standard amount by 3 to have enough to send to family and friends far and wide. How many dozens of cupcakes will Jeanna need to make?

Answers

Answer:

15 dozens of cakes

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that Jeanna is making cupcakes for her family and she normally makes 2 dozens of red velvet cakes and 3 dozens of gingerbread spice cakes. But as everybody is staying at home, Jeanna wants to increase the standard amount by 3 for enough cakes.

So,

2 dozens of velvet cakes, i.e.

2 x 12 = 24 red velvet cakes

Increasing this amount by 3 times will give us 24 x 3 = 72 red velvet cakes.

Similarly,

3 dozens of gingerbread spice cakes, i.e.

3 x 12 = 36 gingerbread spice cakes

Increasing this amount by 3 times will give us 36 x 3 = 108 gingerbread spice cakes.

Therefore the total number of cakes is = 72 + 108

                                                                 = 180 cakes.

We know 1 dozen = 12

Therefore dividing 180 cakes by 12, we get

[tex]$=\frac{180}{12}$[/tex]

= 15 dozen cakes.

Therefore, now Jeanna will have to make 15 dozens of cupcakes for all.

Answers

Answer:

area is 100m  bc u do 10 times 10

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

139.27 meters squared

Step-by-step explanation:

So what you're doing is calculating the square's area and half of the circle's area.

The square's area is 100m^2 since 10*10=100

For the circle part, you use πr^2. You know the diameter of the circle, and radius is half of the diameter, so 10/2=5.

π*5^2 = 78.54 m^2

Since you have half of a circle you divide this by 2.

39.27

Finally you add your two areas together

100+39.27=139.27 meters ^2

The formula says that  a^2 + b^2 = c^2   Since we know  a is 18 and c is 30 we will input the value into the formula to solve for b.

18^2 + b^2 = 30^2
