Agallon of milk weighs eight pounds, so you wouldn’t try to carry three or four gallons home on your bicycle. gasoline is a bit less dense than milk—oil floats on water—and 6 pounds per gallon of gasoline is about right. a typical u. s. “car” (whatever it is we drive—averaging somewhere between a prius and a hummer, and including a lot of pickup trucks and minivans) gets about 20 miles per gallon, and drives about 12,000 miles. so, how many gallons of gas per year? 12,000 gallons / year 6000 gallons / year 600 gallons / year 240,000 gallons / year

Explanation:

The single question is about the amount of gallons of gas per year a typical U.S. "car" uses.

The relevant information to find how many gallons of gas per year a typical U.S. "car" uses is:

The rest of the statement is anectodic and irrelevant to find the answer of the question.

Now, with the helpf of the units, you can set this relation:

        [miles are canceled and the resultant quotient equals gallon / year]

Substitute and compute:

                                 = 600 gallons / year

Hence, the answer is the third option 600 gallons / year.

so a parallelogram is just like a square base times height. multiply 40 and 39 to get 1560 inches.

a triangle is base times height divided by two. so multiply 7.9 and 5 and then divide it by 2 to get 19.75inches.

the kite can be split into two separate triangles and added together to get the total area. 30 x 4 /2 which equals 60. make sure to double it for the two triangles making 120.

let's cover over the formula of the vertex:

y = a(x – h)^2 + k

in this formula, (h,k) are the vertex, always remember that the positive or negative value of the vertex is based on the sign it has.

for example, if the vertex is -3,-6 then both the x and y value would have the positive sign attached to it and if it were a positive x and y value, then a negative sign would be attached to it.

with that being said, for our problem the x value is a positive one so we are looking for a number with a negative sign next to it, in this case the first and second choice.

however, for the first answer choice it isn't quite part of the formula so we know that the answer choice correctly displays the x value.

to confirm, we can see if the -1 fits correctly with the second answer choice, and as mentioned above a negative number will have a positive sign attached to it. so, for our problem we can see that -1 has been changed to +1, so we can confirm that the second answer choice is correct.

hence, our final answer is y=(x - 1)^2 + 1
