Let x be the number of pages of advertisements.
Write a proportion from the table:
of a page of advertisment - 5 pages in a magazine
x pages of advertisment - 98 pages in a magazine,
then

Find x:

Answer: 13 whole pages and
of 14th page are advertisments, so 14 pages contain advertisments.
18:24 = 3/4
4:70 = 2/35
35:105 = 1/3
22:7 = 22/7
12:165 = 4/55
Complete question :
Each state imposes its own excise tax on gasoline. Suppose, for example, that the state of Massachusetts imposes a state gasoline tax of $0.26 per gallon. Suppose further that an average of 1,022,000 gallons of gasoline per day were sold in Massachusetts in 2010. The average revenue from gasoline tax in 2010 is approximately?
Answer:
$265,720
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
State gasoline tax = $0.26 per gallon
Average number of gasoline sold per day = 1,022,000 gallons
. From the availabke information given :
Revenue generated = gasoline tax per gallon multiplied by the average number of gallons sold
= $0.26 * 1,022,000
= $265,720
Answer:
Let two consecutive multiples of 3 be x and (x+3)
A/q,
x * (x+3) = 648
➡ x² + 3x = 648
➡ x² + 3x -648 = 0
➡ x² + 27x - 24x -648 = 0
➡ x ( x + 27 ) -24 ( x +27)
➡ ( x - 24) ( x + 27)
➡ x = 24 and x = -27
so, we take x = 24.
Required multiples of 3
➡ x = 24
➡ x +3 = 24+3 = 27.
