Answer: x = $25.89

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a two step problem.  First we need to determine the number of gallons the car uses to drive the 250 miles:

250/28 ≈ 8.93 gallons

Then we just multiply the number of gallons by the price:

8.93 x 2.90 = $25.90

Alternate solution:  Use a proportion.  Since 1 gallon costs $2.90 and produces 28 miles, we can set up the following proportion:

2.90/28 = x/250

Cross-multiply and solve:

28x = 725

x = $25.89 (There is a one cent difference due to a rounding error in the first solution.  This solution avoids that error.)

How do I subtract a whole number from a fraction
jasenka [17]

Answer:

In order to subtract a whole number from a fraction, you first have to turn the hole number into a mixed fraction.

Step-by-step explanation:

Say your fraction was 2/3 and your whole number was 5.

They have to have like denominators

5/1 - 2/3 = 15/3 - 2/3

15/3 - 2/3 = 13/3

13/3 = 4 1/3

Solve the inequality for x<br><br> 20x &gt; 8(4x - 5) - 20
UNO [17]
Hi there! I can help you with this! First, let's combine like terms and do everything for the right side of the problem. When you do the distributive property, you get 32x - 40. Combine like terms and you'll get 32x - 60. Now, the inequality is 20x = 32x - 60. First, let's subtract 32x from both sides to get the integer by itself. When you do that, you get -12x = -60. Now, divide each side by -12 to isolate the "x". -60/-12 is 5. Let's plug it in. 20 * 5 is 100. 32 * 5 is 160. 160 - 60 is 100. 100 = 100. There. x = 5.

zhannawk [14.2K]

Answer:

The answer is y=24

Step-by-step explanation:

The <u>triangle is a 30-60-90 triangle</u>, which means that the it follows the <em>respective ratio of x:x</em>\sqrt{3}<em>:2x. </em>Since we know that the 30 degree value is 8\sqrt{3}, we can establish that the 60 degree value is 8\sqrt{3}*\sqrt{3} = 24.
