The leakage rate is 5 gallons per hour. Over one day (24 hours), the volume leaked is 5 * 24 = 120 gallons. Converting to pints (1 gallon = 8 pints), the answer is 960 pints.

Rewrite \(f(x)\) as \((x - 5)^2\). The minimum of \(f(x)\) is at \(x = 5\), so \(g(x) = f(x - 2)\) shifts this minimum to \(x = 7\).

Substitute values from each answer choice into both equations. Only \( (5, 10) \) satisfies both equations.

Both equations are identical, which means the lines coincide perfectly and intersect at infinitely many points.

Rewrite both equations in slope-intercept form. To have no solution, the slopes must be equal but the y-intercepts must differ. Solving, we find m = -6.

To find the surface area, first find the side length using \( V = s^3 \). Given \( V = 27000 \), find \( s = \sqrt[3]{27000} = 30 \). The surface area is given by \( 6s^2 \). Therefore, the surface area is \( 6(30)^2 = 5400 \) square units.

The vertex of the function \( f(x) = \frac{1}{9}(x - 7)^2 + 3 \) occurs at \( (7, 3) \). This represents the minimum height of the metal ball. The vertex form of a quadratic function, \( a(x - h)^2 + k \), indicates the vertex as \( (h, k) \). Since \( h = 7 \) and \( k = 3 \), the minimum height is 3 inches above the ground.

To find the doubling time, solve \( j(t) = 2 \cdot j(0) \), leading to \( 100,000 \cdot (1.03)^{t/350} = 200,000 \). Taking logarithms of both sides allows solving for \( t \) and then converting to hours.

The triangles are similar, so corresponding angles have the same trigonometric ratios. Therefore, \( \sin(P) = \sin(X) = \frac{5}{13} \).

Since the decay factor is 0.70 annually, this translates to a 30% decrease per year, so \(q = 30\).

Since the triangles are congruent, angle \( Z \) is equal to angle \( C \), so the measure of angle \( C \) is 70°.

To find the area in square miles, divide by \(1760^2\): \(23,184,000 / 3,097,600 = 7.48\) square miles.

Given \(\frac{m}{n} = 3\), rewrite as \(m = 3n\). Substitute into \(\frac{18m}{pn} = 3\) to get \(\frac{18(3n)}{pn} = 3\). Simplify to \(\frac{54n}{pn} = 3\), then cancel \(n\) to find \(p = 18\).

Only \( (2, 6) \) satisfies both equations.

Using the quadratic formula, \(x = \frac{10 \pm \sqrt{100 - 8}}{2} = 5 \pm \sqrt{23}\). So, the solution can be written as \(5 + \sqrt{23}\) and the correct value of \(k\) is 23.

Let the number of small candles be represented by \( x \), and the number of large candles by \( y \). The total number of candles is at least 200, so we have the inequality:

\( x + y geq 200 \).

The budget constraint is that the total cost must not exceed $2,200. Therefore, we have the equation:

\( 4.90x + 11.60y leq 2,200 \).

We want to maximize the number of large candles, \( y \). First, solve for \( x \) in terms of \( y \) using the inequality:

\( x = 200 - y \).

Substitute this into the budget constraint:

\( 4.90(200 - y) + 11.60y leq 2,200 \)

Simplify:

\( 980 - 4.90y + 11.60y leq 2,200 \)

Combine like terms:

\( 980 + 6.70y leq 2,200 \)

Subtract 980 from both sides:

\( 6.70y leq 1,220 \)

Solve for \( y \):

\( y leq rac{1,220}{6.70} approx 182.09 \)

Since the number of candles must be an integer, the maximum number of large candles is 182.

To find \( f(0) \), substitute \( 0 \) for \( x \): \( f(0) = 180(0.3)^0 \). Since \( (0.3)^0 = 1 \), the expression becomes \( 180 imes 1 = 180 \).

In the equation 4𝑛 + 25𝑚 = 1,150, the coefficient 4 corresponds to the bird sanctuary, meaning 𝑛 represents the number of nests per hectare in the bird sanctuary.

With side lengths of square X being 50 times those of square Y, the area of square X is \( 50^2 = 2500 \) times the area of square Y. Thus, \( k = 2500 \).

Since \(f(x) = 1.2x\) shows a constant proportional increase, the function is linear and increases with \(x\). Thus, the correct answer is 'Increasing Linear.'

Data set A is skewed toward lower values, while data set B is skewed toward higher values. Therefore, the mean of Data set A is less than the mean of Data set B.

The lines have the same slope but different intercepts, indicating that they are parallel and do not intersect.

The volume of a cube is \( V = s^3 \). Given \( V = 343 \), find \( s = \sqrt[3]{343} = 7 \). The surface area formula is \( 6s^2 \). Therefore, the surface area is \( 6(7)^2 = 294 \) square units.

Since \(\frac{c}{d} = 2\), we have \(c = 2d\). Substitute into \(\frac{40c}{qd} = 2\) to get \(\frac{40(2d)}{qd} = 2\). Simplify to \(\frac{80d}{qd} = 2\), cancel \(d\) and solve to find \(q = 40\).

The sum of the solutions of a polynomial equation can be determined using the relationship between the coefficients and the sum of the roots. For each factor, find the solutions and sum them. The given information specifies that the total sum of solutions is \( \frac{20}{3} \), which leads to solving for \( p \).

Calculate the slope using the two points and find the equation of the line. Substitute \(x = m - 4\) to find the y-intercept \(b = 45\).

Congruent triangles have corresponding angles that are equal. Since \( L \) and \( O \) correspond, angle \( O \) must be 40°.

To find \( p \): \( 120 = \frac{p}{100} \times 200 \implies p = \frac{120 \times 100}{200} = 60 \). Calculate \( 60 \% \) of \( 120 \): \( \frac{60}{100} \times 120 = 72 \).

Dividing the equation by 25, completing the square, and simplifying gives n = 5.

Factor out the greatest common factor, \(3x\), from the expression: \(3x(x^2 + 9x + 18)\). Then factor \(x^2 + 9x + 18\) as \((x + 3)(x + 6)\). The smallest possible value of \(b\) is 3.

Using \( x = \frac{-b}{2a} \), we find the minimum value occurs at \( x = \frac{12}{2} = 6 \).

Since the side lengths of square C are 8 times those of square D, the area of square C is \( 8^2 = 64 \) times the area of square D. Therefore, \( k = 64 \).

Since \( \triangle PQR \) and \( \triangle STU \) are congruent, corresponding angles are equal. Angle \( Q \) and \( T \) are right angles, so each measures 90°. Therefore, angle \( U \) must be equal to angle \( P \), which is 25°.

After simplifying and solving, we find \( y = 27 \).

Let the number of people who voted in favor of the measure be z. According to the problem, 4 times as many people voted against, so the number against is 4z. The survey states that 12,000 more people voted against, so the equation is 4z = z + 12,000. Solving for z gives 4,000.

Since \(g(x) = f(x+4) = 7(2)^{x+4} = 7 \cdot 16 \cdot (2)^x = 112(2)^x\), the correct answer is g(x) = 112(2)^x.

Both sides simplify to \( 8z + 4 \), making the equation true for all values of z. Therefore, there are infinitely many solutions.

Sum the solutions for each factor individually, then equate it to the given total of 15 to determine \( p \).

To find the area in square miles, divide by \(1760^2\): \(8,673,280 / 3,097,600 = 2.8\) square miles.

For a quadratic in the form \( y = ax^2 + bx + c \), the minimum or maximum value of \( y \) occurs at \( x = \frac{-b}{2a} \). Here, \( a = 1 \) and \( b = -10 \), so \( x = \frac{10}{2} = 5 \).

Using the quadratic formula, \(x = \frac{8 \pm \sqrt{64 - 28}}{2} = 4 \pm \sqrt{9}\). So, the solution can be written as \(4 + \sqrt{9}\) and the correct value of \(k\) is 9.

To ensure no solution, we set the slopes equal, indicating b = 48 based on intercept calculations.

Dividing the equation by 36, completing the square, and simplifying gives n = 12.

Since \(\frac{r}{s} = 6\), we get \(r = 6s\). Substitute into \(\frac{48r}{ks} = 6\) to obtain \(\frac{48(6s)}{ks} = 6\). Simplify to \(\frac{288s}{ks} = 6\), cancel \(s\) and solve for \(k = 48\).
