The janitor at a school discovered a leak in a pipe. The janitor found that it was leaking at a rate of 7 fl oz per minute. How fast was the pipe leaking in gallons per hour​? PLLLLLLLLLLLLZZZZZZZZZZZ

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

It leaks 420 gallons per hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

7g/m

?/h

7/1 = x/60

(Cross Multiplication)

7 × 60 = x × 1

420 = x

It leaks 420 gallons per hour.

Answer 2

Answer:

3.28 gallons per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the pipe is leaking at a rate of 7 fluid ounce per minute, and that we need to determine the equivalent leaking rate in gallons per hour.  It is important to establish the necessary conversion rates of fluid ounces (fl oz) to gallons (gal), and minutes to an hour.

Conversion rate for fluid ounces (fl oz) to 1 gallon (gal): 128 fl oz = 1 galConversion rate of minutes to hour:  60 minutes = 1 hour.

Now that we have established the conversion rates, we can set up the following mathematical operations that will allow us to convert the leaking rate from fluid ounces per minute, to gallons per hour. We can express the conversion process in fraction form:

[tex](\frac{7 fl. oz.}{min})[/tex] × [tex](\frac{1 gal}{128 fl. oz.})[/tex] × [tex](\frac{60 min}{1 hr})[/tex]

Start by multiplying the first two fractions together:

[tex](\frac{7 fl. oz.}{min})[/tex] × [tex](\frac{1 gal}{128 fl. oz.})[/tex] = 0.546875 gallons per minute, or 0.546875 gal/min

Next, multiply 0.546875 gal/min by 60 min/hr.  This cancels out the "minute" as a unit of measurement, leaving you with gal/hr.

[tex](\frac{0.546875 gal}{min})[/tex] × [tex](\frac{60 min}{1 hr})[/tex]  = 3.28125 gallons per hour, or 3.28 gal/hr.

Therefore, the pipe is leaking at a rate of 3.28 gallons per hour.

Jaxon borrowed some money from his friend in order to help buy a new video game system. Jaxon agreed to pay the friend back some amount every week until his loan was paid off. Let L represent the amount Jaxon owes his friend after tt weeks. A graph of L is shown below. Write an equation for L then state the x-intercept of the graph and determine its interpretation in the context of the problem.

Answers

Answer:

L = -2t + 10, (5,0) the interpretation of the x-intercept in the context of the problem is the week that Jaxon owes no more money

Step-by-step explanation:

so we have L=mt+b with m being the slop and b being the y-intercept. the y-intercept is found by looking at what L is when t=0. when t=0, L=10 so b=10. now we have L=mt + 10. to find slop figure out rise/run. every 1 increase in t, L decreases 2 units. this is -2/1 or -2 so m=-2. so the graph is L = -2t + 10

the x- intercept is the t value when L=0, looking at the graph, when L=0, t=5, so the x-intercept is at (5,0)

A group of 200 adults were asked whether they prefer getting their news from newspapers or from TV. The gender of the adults and their responses are
reported in the following table.
Newspapers
Women 30
Men 50


TV
52
68


(a) What percentage of the adults are women?

(b) What percentage of the adults prefer TV?

Answers

Answer:

41% of adults are women.

60% of adults prefer TV.

Step-by-step explanation:

Women 30 Newspaper 52 TV 82 In Total so the percentage would be 82 out of 200 which would be 41 therefore 41% of adults are women.

TV scores 52 + 68 = 120 therefore 120 out 200 is the percentage of the adults that prefer TV 60 therefore 60% of the adults prefer TV.

The percentage of the adults prefer TV is 60%.

What is percentage?

Percentage is defined as a given part or amount in every hundred. It is a fraction with 100 as the denominator and is represented by the symbol "%".

Given that, a group of 200 adults were asked whether they prefer getting their news from newspapers or from TV.

Here,

                  Newspapers         TV

Women              30                 52

Men                   50                  68

Number of women =30+52

= 82

a) Percentage of the adults are women

= 82/200 ×100

= 41%

b) Percentage of the adults prefer TV

Number of adults watch TV = 52+68

= 120

Here, 120/200 ×100

= 60%

Therefore, the percentage of the adults prefer TV is 60%.

Fit a quadratic function to these three points:

(−2, 8), (0, −4), and (4, 68)

A. y = −2x2 − 2x − 4

B. y = −2x2 + 2x − 4

C. y = 4x2 + 2x − 4

D. y = −4x2 − 2x − 4

Answers

Answer:    y= 4x² +2x -4

C. y = 4x2 + 2x − 4

Step-by-step explanation:  f(x)=4x^2+2x-4

Given three points

P1(-2,8)

P2(0,-4)

P3(4,68)

We need the quadratic equation that passes through all three points.

Solution:

We first assume the final equation to be

f(x)=ax^2+bx+c .............................(0)

Observations:

1. Points are not symmetric, so cannot find vertex visually.

2. Using the point (0,-4) we substitute x=0 into f(x) to get

f(0)=0+0+c=-4, hence c=-4.

3. We will use the two other points (P1 & P3) to set up a system of two equations to find a and b.

f(-2)=a(-2)^2+b(-2)-4=8 => 4a-2b-4=8.................(1)

f(4)=a(4^2)+b(4)-4=68 =>  16a+4b-4=68.............(2)

4. Solve system

2(1)+(2) => 24a+0b-12=84 => 24a=96 => a=96/24 => a=4 ......(3)

substitute (3) in (2) => 16(4)+4b-4=68 => b=8/4 => b=2  ..........(4)

5. Put values c=-4, a=4, b=2 into equation (0) to get

f(x)=4x^2+2x-4

Check:

f(-2)=4((-2)^2)+2(-2)-4=16-4-4=8

f(0)=0+0-4 = -4

f(4)=4(4^2)+2(4)-4=64+8-4=68

So all consistent, => solution ok.

The y-values go down and up again, so the parabola opens upward. That means the x² coefficient must be positive. All answer choices are eliminated except one.

y = 4x² +2x -4

Answers

Answer:

4

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

When I look at -2^2 I see two operations, a negation and a power (square). The convention in mathematical expressions is that powers are performed before negations (also before additions, multiplications and divisions) so to evaluate -2^2 you first square the 2 to get 4 and then apply the negation to arrive at -4.

With (-2)^2 the parentheses tell you to consider -2 as a single quantity and square it so (-2)^2 = (-2) × (-2) = 4.

An isoceles triangle has at least two congruent sides of the same length.  

Given the triangle that has two equal angles, and that you'll have to prove that the triangle also has two equal sides.  

Using the Converse of Isoceles Triangle Theorem, where it states that if a triangle has two congruent angles < PQR ≅ < PRQ, for which opposite sides of those angles are congruent:  

The opposite side of <PQR is line PR.The opposite side of <PRQ is line PQ.  

Additionally, connecting point P to point X along the line QR such that PX ⊥ QR, divides △PQR into two symmetrical sections, where points Q and R are equidistant from point X.
