<span>At a corner gas station, the revenue R varies directly with the number g of gallons of gasoline sold. If the revenue is $44.50 when the number of gallons sold is 10, find a linear equation that relates revenue R to the number g of gallons of gasoline. Then find the revenue R when the number of gallons of gasoline sold is 15.5.
Solution:
As the question mentioned the direct relationship between the quantities, hence
10 gallons of gasoline sold = $44.50
15.5 gallons of gasoline sold = $x
by cross multiplication, we get that
10x = 15.5 * 44.50
which implies that
x = 68.975
Thus by $</span>68.975 revenue is obtained by selling 15.5 gallons of gasoline.
3 x - 7 = 5 x + 13
3 x - 5x = 13 + 7
-2x = 20
x = 20 / -2
x = - 10
Answer:
9.4
Step-by-step explanation:
The net income for theis company is $216,060
The average total assets is 2,290,000
Therefore the return on total assets is
= 216,060/2,290,000
= 0.0943×100
=9.4
