The amount of money it takes to fill up your gas tank varies directly with the number of gallons you buy. You spent $16.56 to fill up your car with gasoline. If you bought 6 gallons of gasoline, what is the constant of variation

Answers

Answer 1
The constant of variation is 2.76 dollars per gallon
Answer 2

Let "m" represent the money required.

Let "n" represent the number of gallons filled.

Since it is given to us that the amount of money it takes to fill up your gas tank varies directly with the number of gallons you buy, therefore, this can be written mathematically as:

[tex] m\propto n [/tex]

We know that when we remove the "varies to" sign we have to replace it with the equal to sign and the constant of variation, which we will represent by the letter "k".

Therefore the above expression will become:

[tex] m=k\times n [/tex]

Now, it is given that m=$16.56 and n=6 gallons

Therefore, [tex] 16.56=k\times 6 [/tex]

Dividing both sides by 16.56 we get:

[tex] \therefore k=\frac{16.56}{6}=2.76 [/tex]

Thus, k=2.76 $/gallon is the value of the constant of variation.

a quadrilateral is plotted on the coordinate plane. Each of its vertices undergoes the same transformation.Which rule below represents a transformation that does not preserve the length of the sides of the quadrilateral?

Answers

There are two main types of transformations:
a) Rigid Transformations
b) Non-Rigid Transformations

Rigid Transformations, as their name indicate, do not alter the size or shape. These include reflection, rotation and translation

Non-Rigid Transformations, do not preserve the size. The shape remains the same. This include Dilation. 
The question asks to find a rule which do not preserve the lengths of the sides of the Quadrilateral. So one thing is for sure. The quadrilateral has undergone non-rigid transformation i.e Dilation. Dilation involves both contraction and expansion. So the rule which will either expand or contract the given quadrilateral will be the right choice to the given question.

Answer:

(X,Y) ——> (3x - 2, y - 3)

Step-by-step explanation:

Because it’s multiplying X by 3 meaning that is a dilation

Answers

the complete question in the attached figure

we know that
[arcs rc +arc cs arc sm]---------------> they take up half a circle-------->180°
 they are all congruent
so
divide 180 by 3 ----------------> 180/3=60°


Find the length of arc rc=60°

if 360°----------------> (2*pi*7) length of circumference 
60° -------------------> X
X=60*2*pi*7/360------------> 7.327 units

Abigail flipped a coin 20 times, and it landed with heads facing up 13 times. What percent of the coin flips landed with heads facing up.

Answers

65% of the coins flipped landed with heads facing up because 13 were faced up out of 20.

Divide:
13/20=0.65=65%

Hope this helped☺☺
Final answer:

The percentage of times Abigail's coin landed on heads is 65%, which is found by dividing the number of successful outcomes (head flips) by the total number of trials (total flips) and then multiplying by 100.

Explanation:

The calculation you're asking for is one of percentage, which is a basic concept in mathematics often related to probability and statistics. We determine the percentage of times the coin landed on heads by dividing the number of successful outcomes (the coin landing on heads) by the total number of trials (the total coin flips), and then multiplying that result by 100 to convert the decimal to a percentage.

Here's a step-by-step way to do it:

Firstly, count the number of times the coin landed on heads, which is 13. Next, count the total number of coin flips, which is 20. Divide the number of successful outcomes (head flips) by the total trials (total flips). In this case, 13 ÷ 20 = 0.65. Finally, to convert this decimal to a percentage, multiply by 100. So, 0.65 × 100 = 65%.

So, 65% of Abigail's coin flips landed with heads facing up.

The tank shown is made of steel. It does not have a cover. Find the area of steel sheet used to make the tank.

Answers

The perimeter of the top is
.. 2*(6.5 ft +28 ft) = 69 ft
so the lateral area of the tank is
.. 69 ft * 13 ft = 897 ft^2

The area of the bottom is
.. 6.5 ft * 28 ft = 182 ft^2

The total area is 897 ft^2 +182 ft^2 = 1079 ft^2.
the area has to be found step by step for this one since it doesn't really have a top part. so you say 6.5*28= 182 ft squared
then 6.5 * 13 * 2= 169 ft squared
and then find the last two sides which are 
28 * 13= 364 ft squared
Finally you have to add all the above areas so, 182+169+364= 717 ft squared

What is the area of a sector with a central angle of 3pi/5 radians and a diameter of 21.2cm
Use 3.14 for pi and round to the nearest hundredth

Cm2

Answers

Answer: 105.84 cm^2

To find the answer, first you have to start by finding the percent of the circle in the sector. Convert the radians given to 108 degrees. 108 out of 360 is 30%. 

Now, find the area of the circle. It's pi x r^2, so the area is 352.810.

Multiply this by 30% to find our area of 105.84 cm^2

Laura bought a square canvas to paint a picture of her cat one side measured 22 centimeters what is tha area of the canvas

Answers

Hi there!

To start, squares are a shape in which all of its sides are congruent to one another. Knowing the length of one side would mean that you would know the length of all the other sides. 

Because you know that one side measures 22 cm, you can conclude that all the other sides of the square are also at a length/width of 22 cm.

Next, you will find the area of the square. 

Because the area formula is Area=Length * Width, you can easily find the area of the square by multiplying 22*22 since the length and width of any square is the same.

When you simplify 22*22, you should get 484.

Therefore, the area of the square canvas would be 484 cm squared.

The points (10, 6) and (7, u) fall on a line with a slope of -4/3. what is the value of u?

u=

Answers

Answer:
u = 10

Explanation:
The slope of the lone can be calculated as follows:
slope = (y2-y1) / (x2-x1)

We are given:
slope = -4/3
point (10,6) representing (x1,y1)
point (7,u) representing (x2,y2)

Substitute with the givens in the above equation and solve for u as follows:
slope = (y2-y1) / (x2-x1)
-4/3 = (u-6) / (7-10)
-4/3 = (u-6) / -3
4/3 = (u-6) / 3
3*4 = 3*(u-6)
4 = u-6
u = 4+6
u = 10
