For their group project, Mia and Ichiro researched
hybrid cars that combine gas and an electric motor.
“Awesome, so it consumes less fuel and emits less
CO2 into the environment,” Ichiro said.
“While hybrid cars are better for the environment,
I’m seeing that some people are hesitant to buy one
because of the higher purchase price,” Mia noted.
They found the graph to the right, which shows the
miles per gallon (MPG) and the annual tons of GHG
produced by 8 different types of cars. If each gallon
of gasoline burned created 20 pounds of GHG, and
the price of gasoline was $2.454 per gallon, how
much money was saved annually on gas by the car
that got 40 miles per gallon when compared to the
car that got 20 miles per gallon? Provide your answer
to the hundredths place. Note: 1 ton = 2,000 pounds. This is from Pg.2 -7th Grade math problem.

Answers

Answer 1

Hybrid cars have lower operational cost and reduce Green House Gases

GHG when journeys are made on a frequent basis.

The amount saved annually on gas by the car that got 40 miles per gallon when compared to the car that got 20 miles per gallon is $1,076.76.

Reasons:

The given parameters are;

The mass of Green House Gases GHG created by each gallon of gasoline burned = 20 pounds

The price per gallon of gasoline = $2.454

Let A represent the cars that consume 40 MPG and let B represent the cars that consume 20 MPG.

Amount of GHG produced per year by cars A = 4.4 tons

4.4 US tons = 8,800 lbs

Amount of GHG produced per year by cars A = 8.8 tons

8.8 US tons = 17,600 lbs

[tex]\displaystyle Gasoline \ consumed \ per \ year \ by \ car \ A = \frac{8,800 \ lb}{20 \ lb/ gallon} = \mathbf{440 \ gallons}[/tex]

Cost of gasoline consumed per year by car A per year is therefore;

[tex]Cost_A[/tex] = 440 gallons × $2.454 = $1,079.76

[tex]\displaystyle Gasoline \ consumed \ per \ year \ by \ car\ B = \mathbf{\frac{17,600\ lb}{20 \ lb/ gallon}} = 880 \ gallons[/tex]

Cost of gasoline consumed per year by car B per year is therefore;

[tex]Cost_B[/tex] = 880 gallons × $2.454 = $2,159.52

The amount saved annually by car A compared to car B is therefore;

Fuel cost savings by Car A = $2,159.52 - $1,079.76 = $1,079.76

The amount saved on gas by the 40 MPG car = $1,079.76

1)first, we half 3 to give us 1.5

(x+1.5)^2

2)square 1.5=2.25

so far we have (x+1.5)^2 - 2.25 --- the negative sign from 2.25 is part of the formula

3)we subtract 8 from -2.25. the 8 comes from here shown in bold ----- x^2+3x-8

Incredibly, Enzo wins 5 tickets from every game, and Beatriz wins 11 tickets from every game. When they stopped playing games, Enzo and Beatriz had won the same number of total tickets.
What is the minimum number of games that Enzo could have played?

Answers

Answer:

Enzo must have played 11 games.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since Enzo earns 5 tickets from every game and Beatriz wins 11 tickets from each game, we have to find the LCM (Least Common Multiple) since they earned the same amount of tickets when they stopped.

The LCM of 11 and 5 is 55.

To see how many games they both played we have to divide the amount of tickets they earn each time from the LCM (55).

Since Enzo earns 5 tickets from each game and both Enzo and Beatrice earned 55, Enzo must've played 11 games.

population growth problem: the deer population in georgia was 450,000 in 2010, and the population doubles every 5 years. in what year will the deer population in georgia reach 1 million

Answers

We know that in 2020 the population of deer will be 900,000 based on the given numbers. In another 5 years the population will be over 1 million (1,350,000) in order to calculate when it will reach 1 million we need to see how much growth is gained per year. I believe to obtain that information we will need to divide 450,000 by 5 that equals 90,000 a year. So if I’m 2020 the population of deer will be 900,000 than add 90,000 until you reach your 1 million marker. In this case 2021 would be 990,000 thousand so 2022 would be 1,080,000. So your answer should be year 2022. Hope that helps.

The American customer satisfaction index scores of McDonalds restaurants grew from 61 in 2002 to 71 in the year 2014. Find the average rate of change for the data. Show work.

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\large\sf{average\:rate\:of\:change= \frac{6}{5}\:=\:1.2}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the American customer satisfaction index scores that increased from 61 in 2002, to 71 in 2014:

In order to solve for the average rate of change, we could simply use the average rate of change formula:

Average rate of change = Change in output/Change in input

[tex]\huge\sf{Average\:rate\:of\:change\:=\:\frac{\triangle{y}}{\triangle{x}}\:=\:\frac{(y_2\: -\: y_1) }{(x_2\: -\: x_1)}}[/tex]

Let (x₁, y₁) = (61, 2002)

    (x₂, y₂) = (71, 2014)

Substitute these values into the average rate of change formula:

[tex]\BIGG\sf{Average\:rate\:of\:change\:=\:\frac{\triangle{y}}{\triangle{x}}\:=\:\frac{(y_2\: -\: y_1) }{(x_2\: -\: x_1)}\:=\frac{2014\:-\:2002}{71\:-\:61}\:=\:\frac{12}{10}\:=\:\frac{6}{5}}[/tex]

[tex]\large\bf\sf{Therefore,\:the\:average\:rate\:of\:change= \frac{6}{5}\:=\:1.2}[/tex].
