3 letters to US = 3*0.94 = 2.82
2 local letters = 2*0.44 = 0.88
checking: 2.82+0.88 = 3.70

to get rid out of 0.04 cents you have to multiply it by 5. so total number of letters would be 5.

Given that:

James is 6 times older than his friend Zach, if Zach added 8 to his age and multiplied this sum by 3 .

To find:

The equation that can be used to solve for zach's age.

Solution:

Let the age of zach be Z.

Zach added 8 to his age = Z+8

And multiplied this sum by 3 = 3(Z+8)

James is 6 times older than his friend Zach = 6Z

Now,

$6Z=3(Z+8)$

$6Z-3Z=24$

$3Z=24$

Divide both sides by 3.

$Z=8$

Therefore, the required equation is $6Z=3(Z+8)$ is age of zach is 8 years.

MrRissso [65]

The age of the van owned = 12 years

The age of the truck owned = 29 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, the given question is INCOMPLETE.

Laura takes very good care of her vehicles. She owns a blue van and a red truck. Although she bought them both new, she has owned the truck for 17 years longer than she has owned the van. If the sum of the ages of the vehicles is 41 years, how old is the van and how old is the truck?

Let us assume the number of years Laura has owned the van = S years

So, according to the question:

The number of years she has owned truck = S + 17 years

Now, Sum of the age of ( Truck + Van) = 41 years

⇒ (S + 17 years) + (S years) = 41 years

or, 2 S + 17 = 41

or, 2 S = 4 1 -1 7 = 24

or, S = 24/2 = 12 years

or, S = 12 years

Hence the age of the van owned = 12 years

The age of the truck owned = S + 17 = 12 + 17 = 29 years

A fuel tank has a volume of 36 gallons. When filled with biodiesel, it provides 4,500,000 BTUs. How many BTUs does 1 gallon of b

Tamiku [17]

Answer: 125,000 BTUs

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to apply proportions:

A fuel tank has a volume of 36 gallons. When filled with biodiesel, it provides 4,500,000 BTUs

So, the proportion is:

36 gallons / 4,500,000 BTUs

For 1 gallon

1 gallon / x BTUs

36/4,500,000 = 1/x

Solving for x:

x = 1 / (36/4,500,000)

x = 125,000 BTUs

Feel free to ask for more if needed or if you did not understand something.
