Becky adds 3/4 gallon of gasoline into her snow thrower's empty fuel tank. She uses 1/4 gallon for the snowstorm on Friday, and then uses another 1/4 gallon for the snowstorms on Sunday. Is the fuel tank empty after becky uses the snow thrower on Sunday? Explain. If her fuel tank is not empty again, what single action could have been changed so that it is empty again? Explain.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: Amount of fuel in the tank before the story begins . . . . . zero.

Total amount poured in . . . . . 3/4 gallon.

Total amount burned:
   on Friday . . . . . 1/4 gallon
   on Sunday . . . . 1/4 gallon
   Total used . . 1/2 gallon .

Amount remaining in the tank on Monday:

   (3/4 gallon in) - (1/2 gallon burned) = 1/4 gallon left.
      ==> NOT empty

The tank would have been empty on Monday IF Becky
had poured in only 1/2 gallon, instead of 3/4 of a gallon
before the first flakes began to fly.

which equation is represented by the function table below? x's are 1,2,3,4 y's are 8,14,20,26

Answers

f: R -> R, f(x) = ax + b;
f(1) = 8 => a + b = 8;
f(2) = 14 => 2a + b = 14 => a = 6 and b =2;
f(3) = 20 => 6*3 + 2 = 20 True;
f(4) = 26 => 4*6 + 2 = 26 True;

then, f:R -> R, f(x) = 6x + 2;

$\int\limits{(x)} = 6x + 2$

3 + 5 + 10 + 15 + X = 46

Write and solve a problem involving money that can be solved with a division equation and has a solution of 1,350 plz answer I need help in honestly hopeless

Answers

Answer:

The problem,

Two friends decided to split the money spent on the lunch. If the lunch costs $2,700, how much money does each have to contribute?

involves division $(2700)/(2)$ to give the solution $1,350.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are required to write a problem which involves division equation and the solution should be 1,350.

Let us consider the problem.

Two friends decided to split the money spent on the lunch. If the lunch costs $2,700, how much money does each have to contribute?

So, the solution is given by,

Total amount of the lunch = $2,700

Since the money is divided among both the friends.

So, the money each person have to contribute = $(2700)/(2)$ = $1,350.

Thus, each person have to contribute $1,350.

Jennifer has twice as much money as Emily. If Jennifer has $2700, how much money does Emily have?
