A family has two cars during one particular week the first car consume 25 gallons of gas and the second consumed 15 gallons of gas the two cars Drove a combined total of 1075 miles and the sum of the fuel efficiencies was 55 miles per gallon what were the fuel efficiencies of each of the cars that week?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: the efficiency of the first car is 25 miles per gallon.

the efficiency of the second car is 30 miles per gallon.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the efficiency of the first car.

Let y represent the efficiency of the second car.

Distance = car efficiency × number of gallons.

The first car consume 25 gallons of gas and the second consumed 15 gallons of gas. The two cars Drove a combined total of 1075 miles. It means that

25x + 15y = 1075- - - - - - - - - - -1

The sum of the fuel efficiencies was 55 miles per gallon. It means that

x + y = 55

Substituting x = 55 - y into equation 1, it becomes

25(55 - y) + 15y = 1075

1375 - 25y + 15y = 1075

- 25y + 15y = 1075 - 1375

- 10y = - 300

y = - 300/-10

y = 30

x = 55 - y = 55 - 30

x = 25

Let f= {(-5,1).( - 4,0).(0,6)}
Find f(0)
f(0)=

Answers

Given:

It is given that the coordinates of the function are [tex]f=\{(-5,1),(-4,0),(0,6)\}[/tex]

We need to determine the value of f(0)

Value of f(0):

The value of f(0) is the value of the function when the input is 0.

We need to determine the value of f(0) when the input is x = 0

Thus, from the coordinates of the function [tex]f=\{(-5,1),(-4,0),(0,6)\}[/tex], it is obvious that the input value of the function is x = 0 , then the value of the function f(0) = 6.

Thus, when the input value x = 0, the output is f(0) = 6.

Therefore, the value of f(0) = 6.

13

Step-by-step explanation:

Organizing the numbers

8 10 11 12 14 15 15 16

The median are both 12 and 14 but to get one median you add the two numbers 12 + 14 which equals 26. 26 divided by 2 numbers  equals 13

12 + x = 0.80(x + 20)
Solve the linear equation

Answers

Answer:

20

Step-by-step explanation:

12+x=0.8(x+20)

Divide both sides by 0.8:

15+1.25x=x+20

Subtract x from both sides:

0.25x+15=20

Subtract 15 from both sides:

0.25x=5

Multiply both sides by 4:

x=20. Hope this helps!

Answer:

x = 20

Step-by-step explanation:

12 + x = 0.80(x + 20)

Distribute the 0.80 on the right side.

12 + x = 0.8x + 16

Subtract 0.8x from both sides.

12 + 0.2x = 16

Subtract 12 from both sides.

0.2x = 4

Divide both sides by 0.2.

x = 20

Randy went to the store and brought a shirt that cost $42.00 before taxes and discount. The shirt was on sale for a discount of 20% before tax. The sales taxes was 3%. What did randy pay for the shirt after discount and tax

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The 20% discount amounted to ...

  0.20 × $42.00 = $8.40

so the price before tax was ...

  $42.00 -8.40 = $33.60

The tax amount is 3% of this value, so is ...

  0.03 × $33.60 = $1.008 ≈ $1.01

So the total price paid for the shirt was ...

  $33.60 +1.01 = $34.61

Randy paid $34.61 for the shirt after discount and tax.

___

Alternate solution

You can realize that the 20% discount means that Randy will pay 80% of the original price of the shirt. Similarly, the 3% added tax means Randy will finally pay 103% of the discounted price. Then the total price Randy pays is ...

  $42.00×0.80×1.03 = $34.608 ≈ $34.61

A tank is in the shape of a rectangular prism. If the base has an area of 116 square feet and the tank is 30 feet tall, how many cubic feet of water would the tank contain when it is filled halfway?

Answers

Answer:

1740 cubic feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

A tank is in the shape of a rectangular prism.

Area of base = 116 square feet

Height of the tank = 30 feet

Question asked:

How many cubic feet of water would the tank contain when it is filled halfway?

Solution:

Area of rectangular base = 116 square feet

[tex]Length\times breadth=116[/tex]

As we know:

[tex]Volume\ of\ rectangular\ prism=length\times breadth\times height[/tex]

                                                 [tex]=116\times30=3480\ cubic\ feet[/tex]

That means capacity of tank is 3480 cubic feet.

When it is filled halfway, it will contain =

[tex]\frac{1}{2} \ of\ volume=\frac{1}{2}\times3480=1740\ cubic feet[/tex]

Thus, tank will contain 1740 cubic feet of water when it is filled halfway.

A train leaves at 17.22 and arrives at its destination at 18.14.

If the train travelled 56 km, what was it's the average speed in km/h?

Give your answer rounded to 1 dp.

Answers

The train's average speed was calculated by using the formula for average speed (Total distance \/ Total time), resulting in approximately 64.4 km/h, after converting the total journey time from minutes to hours.

To calculate the average speed of the train, we can use the formula:

Average speed = Total distance \/ Total time

First, we find the total time taken by the train for its journey:

Departure time: 17:22

Arrival time: 18:14

Total time = Arrival time - Departure time

Total time = 18:14 - 17:22

Total time = 52 minutes

To convert minutes to hours (since speed is in km/h), we divide by 60:

Total time in hours = 52 / 60 ≈ 0.87 hours

Now, we can plug in the given distance and calculated time into the formula:

Average speed = 56 km / 0.87 hours ≈ 64.4 km/h

Hence, the train's average speed was approximately 64.4 km/h, rounded to 1 decimal place.

Step-by-step explanation:

We can observe that all the sides have a length but the first to the left.

Also, we know the corners meet at right triangles, so to calculate the length of the missing side, we must add to sides.

But these sides must be the ones that are in front of it (6 ft and 4 ft)

Margaret is planning a wedding reception. She wants to spend less than her budget of 5,676, and margaret has already spent 2,652. The meal price per guest is 28. How many guests, x, can margaret invite to the reception and stay under budget?

Answers

Final answer:

To determine how many guests Margaret can invite to stay under budget, follow the steps to calculate the maximum number of guests based on the remaining budget and meal price per guest.

Explanation:

To determine how many guests Margaret can invite to stay under budget, follow these steps:

Calculate how much budget Margaret has left: $5,676 - $2,652 = $3,024.Divide the remaining budget by the meal price per guest to find out the maximum number of guests she can invite: $3,024 ÷ $28 = 108. Therefore, Margaret can invite a maximum of 108 guests and stay under budget.
