At the beginning of the road, a tank truck was traveling full of water in water tank, but it began to leak.You can assume that the fuel consumption of the truck is directly proportional to the weight it carries, and that the water flow(in the leakage) and the speed of the truck are constant for the whole journey. After traveling for miles, the truck leaked half of the water from the water tank and consumed half of fuel tank.

If the water tank was empty the truck would have spent a sixth of the fuel tank, if it travelled the same distance and under the same conditions as above.
Disregarding the fuel tank weight, what fraction of the fuel tank would be spent if there was no leak?

Answers

Answer 1

[tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] of the water takes [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] of the fuel and empty tank takes [tex]\frac{1}{6}[/tex] of the fuel, the

fraction that would will be spent if there was no leak is [tex]\underline{\dfrac{11}{18}}[/tex] of the fuel

How can the fraction of the fuel spent be found?

The given parameters are;

The volume of oil consumed = [tex]\mathbf{\dfrac{1}{2}}[/tex] of the fuel tank

Volume consumed if the water tank was empty = [tex]\dfrac{1}{6}[/tex] of the fuel tank

Let w represent the weight of the water that fills the tank.

Therefore;

[tex]The \ average \ weight \ carried \ by \ oil = \dfrac{w + \dfrac{w}{2} }{2} = \mathbf{\dfrac{3 \cdot w}{4}}[/tex]

The amount of fuel consumed by the water that leaked = [tex]\dfrac{1}{2} - \dfrac{1}{6} = \dfrac{1}{3}[/tex]

Let x represent the amount of oil used to carry only the water if there

was no leak, therefore;

[tex]\mathbf{\dfrac{\frac{3 \cdot w}{4} }{w} }= \dfrac{\frac{1}{3} }{x}[/tex]

Which gives;

[tex]\mathbf{\dfrac{3 \cdot w}{4} \times x}} = \dfrac{1}{3} \times w }[/tex]

[tex]x = \dfrac{4}{3 \times 3} = \dfrac{4}{9}[/tex]

The total amount of fuel that will be consumed without leakage is

therefore;

[tex]Total \ amount \ of \ fuel = \dfrac{4}{9} + \dfrac{1}{6} = \mathbf{ \dfrac{11}{18}}[/tex]

The amount of oil consumed if there was no leakage is therefore;

[tex]\underline{\dfrac{11}{18} \ of \ the \ fuel \ tank}[/tex]

What is an equation of the line that passes through the point (-4, 5) and is perpendicular to the line 4x + y = 7?

Answers

Answer:

  x -4y = -24

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the equation of a line in standard form, you can write the equation of the perpendicular line by swapping the coefficients and negating one of them. The constant needs to be adjusted to make the equation true at the point you want the line to pass through.

  4x +y = 7 . . . . given line

  x -4y = constant . . . . equation with coefficients swapped, one negated

  x -4y = (-4) -4(5) = -24 . . . . equation with appropriate constant

An equation for the desired line is ...

  x -4y = -24

__

Additional comment

The standard form equation has a positive leading coefficient, so the choice of which coefficient to negate will take that into account.

The slope of the standard form line ...

  ax +by = c

is m = -a/b.

The slope of the perpendicular line is the opposite reciprocal of this:

  m' = -1/m = b/a

You can see that this swaps the coefficients and negates one of them.

Find the lengths of AC. Round your answer to the nearest whole number. C a 22.69 B 13 cm A​

Answers

The triangle ABC is a right triangle

The length of AC is 12.00 cm

How to determine the length of AC

From the figure, we have the following parameters:

Length AB = 13 cm

Angle A = 22.6 degrees

Represent the length AC with b.

So, we have the following cosine ratio

[tex]\cos(A) = \frac{b}{AB}[/tex]

Substitute known values

[tex]\cos(22.6) = \frac{b}{13}[/tex]

Make b the subject

[tex]b = 13 * \cos(22.6)[/tex]

Evaluate the product

[tex]b = 12.00[/tex]

Hence, the length of AC is 12.00 cm

What are the values of cos(s+t) and cos(s-t)?

Question Parameter(s):

Cos s=-2/5 and sin t=4/5, s and t are in quadrant 4

Generally, the equation for the s and t as functions of the 4 qudrants is mathematically given as

Answers

Answer:

$459

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following question:

32% of 675

To find the answer to this question we need to use the formula to calculate 32% of 675. Then we subtract that answer from our original price which will then give us our answer.

[tex]\frac{p\times n}{100}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{32\times 675}{100}[/tex]
[tex]32\times675=21600[/tex]
[tex]21600\div100=216[/tex]

Subtract from the original price:
[tex]675[/tex]
[tex]675-216=459[/tex]
[tex]=459[/tex]

The television after a 32% discount will cost "$459."

Bobby's cat runs x mph. Bobby's dog runs twice as fast as his cat. suppose Bobbys cat and dog were 6 miles apart after 30 min. Write an equation to describe this situation

Answers

The equation to describe this situation is that Bobby's cat and dog were 6 miles apart after 30 minutes is 0.5x = 6

Bobby's cat's speed

Since Bobby's cat runs at x mph, its speed is x mph.

Bobby's dog's speed

Also, Bobby's dog runs twice as fast as his cat. So, his dog's speed is v = 2x.

Time

Since they both move a distance in t = 30 min = 30 min × 1 h/60 min = 0.5 h.

Bobby's cat's distance

Bobby' cat's distance in 30 mins is d = x × 0.5 h

= 0.5x miles

Bobby's dog's distance

Also, Bobby's dog covers a distance in 30 min, D = v × 0.5 h

= 2x × 0.5 h

= x miles

The required equation

Since Bobbys cat and dog were 6 miles apart after 30 min, we have that

D - d = 6

x - 0.5x = 6

0.5x = 6

So, the equation to describe this situation  that Bobby's cat and dog were 6 miles apart after 30 minutes is 0.5x = 6

Find angle C, can someone help me with this please?

Answers

Angle C= 98°

Explanation:

First, find angle T, which will be 180°-130° (Angle T=50°)

Now you can work out for x
You know that all the angles in a triangle add up to 180°, which means that 50+x+(3x+2)=180°
Change subjects in order to find the value of x first
x+3x=180-50-2
4x=128
x=32

Now that you found the value of x, substitute it into the value of angle C
Angle C= 3x+2
Angle C= 3(32)+2
Angle C=98°

Answer:

m∠C = 98°

Step 1: Derive an Equation

To solve this problem, we will use what is called the Exterior Angle Theorem. This states that in a triangle, the measure of an exterior angle is equal to the sum of the measures of its 2 corresponding remote interior angles.

Exterior angle - an angle formed by the extension of 1 side of the triangleRemote interior angles - the 2 angles that don't share a vertex with the exterior angle

In this case, the exterior angle is ∠T (the obtuse one) and the remote interior angles are ∠C and ∠Y. Therefore, m∠T = m∠C + m∠Y.

Substituting the given measures into the equation, we get:

[tex]3x+2+x=130[/tex]

Step 2: Solve the Equation

[tex]3x+2+x=130[/tex]

[tex]4x+2=130[/tex] (Combine like terms)

[tex]4x=128[/tex] (Subtract 2 from both sides to isolate [tex]x[/tex])

[tex]x=32[/tex] (Divide both sides by 4 to get rid of [tex]x[/tex]'s coefficient)

Step 3: Answer the Question

We now know what [tex]x[/tex] is. Therefore, m∠C = [tex]3*32+2=\bf 98 \textdegree[/tex].
