A chemist is researching different sustainable fuel sources. She is currently working with benzene, which must be in liquid form for her to successfully conduct her research. The boiling point of benzene is 176° F, and the freezing point is 42° F. Part A: Write an inequality to represent the temperatures the benzene must stay between to ensure it remains liquid. (2 points)

Part B: Describe the graph of the inequality completely from Part A. Use terms such as open/closed circles and shading directions. Explain what the solutions to the inequality represent. (4 points)

Part C: In February, the building's furnace broke and the temperature of the building fell to 20° F. Would the chemist have been able to conduct her research with benzene on this day? Why or why not? (4 points)

Part A:

176>x>42

Part C:

Because the temperature cannot go below 42 before it freezes, she would not have been able to conduct her research

Step-by-step explanation: I dont understand part b, but thats what I could get. really hope this helps :)

54 kilometers per hour

step-by-step explanation:

according to rules:

1 km = 1000 meter

which means that 1 meter = 1/1000 km

1 hour = 3600 second [ as 1 hour = 60 min = 60 *60 seconds ]

which means that 1 second = 1/3600 hour

therefore, 1 kilometer/hour =

thus to convert 15 meter per second to kilometer per hour, we multiply 15 to 3.6 kilometer/hour.

15 meter/second=   which is the required answer.

step-by-step explanation:

part a. the differences are decreasing, so we know the sequence is not arithmetic. the ratios are constant (=3/4), so we know the sequence is geometric.

part b. from part a, we know the common ratio is 3/4, so each term is 3/4 of the one before. the initial term is the number of gallons at h=1.

g[h] = (3/4)·g[h-1]

g[1] = 384 . . . . initial value required for a recursive definition

part c. the general formula for a geometric sequence is

a[n] = a[1]·r^(n-1)

we have a[1] = 384, r = 3/4, and the term number given by h. the formula that follows is

g[h] = 384·(3/4)^(h-1)

part d. filling in the value and doing the arithmetic, we have

g[12] = 384·(3/4)^11 ≈ 384·0.042235136 ≈ 16.2183 . . gallons

part e. each gallon is 4 quarts, so

16.2183 gal × 4 qt/gal = 64.8732 qt
