A family has two cars. The first car has a fuel efficiency of 40 miles per gallon of gas and the second has a fuel efficiency of

15 miles per gallon of gas. During one particular week, the two cars went a combined total of 1025 miles, for a total gas consumption of 35 gallons. How many gallons were consumed by each of the two cars that week?

Let us assume the number of gallons consumed by car A = x gallons
Let us assume the number of gallons consumed by car B =  (35 - x) gallons
Then
Distance covered by car A = 40x
Distance covered by car B = 15(35 - x)
So
40x + 15(35 - x) = 1025
40x + 525 - 15x = 1025
25x = 500
x = 20
Then
Amount of gas consumed by car A = 20 gallons
Amount of gas consumed by car B = 15 gallons.

The perimeter of a rectangle is 46 in and the diagonal is 17 in. Find the area of the rectangle.
OlgaM077 [116]
P=2*(L+l)=46
L+l=46:2
L+l=23
(L+l)^2=529
(L^2+l^2)+2l*L=529

D= V L^2+l^2= 17
L^2+l^2=289

so 289+2l*L=529
     2l*L=529-289=240
l*L=240:2
A=120

1. Write a linear equation with the given information
Readme [11.4K]

1) The equation of the parallel line in Slope Intercept Form is; y = -x - 1

2) The equation of the perpendicular line in Slope Intercept Form is;

y = ³/₂x - 4

<h3>How to write equation in Slope Intercept Form?</h3>

1) When two lines are parallel, it means their slopes are the same.

Formula for equation in slope intercept form is;

y = mx + c

where;

m is slope

c is y-intercept

Thus, slope of y = -x + 1 is m = -1.

Equation of parallel line is;

(y - (-5))/(x - 4) = -1

y + 5 = -x + 4

y = -x - 1

2) When two lines are perpendicular, it means their slopes are the negative inverse of each other. Thus;

Slope of line = -2/3 and so slope of perpendicular line = 3/2. Thus, equation of new line is;

(y + 1)/(x - 2) = 3/2

2y + 2 = 3x - 6

2y = 3x - 8

y = ³/₂x - 4

Correct Answers only please! I only have two attempts on this assignment, and I cannot retake it. I've already tried the answer
Strike441 [17]

Answer: A. x= 5"

Step-by-step explanation:

ORIGINAL/NEW = 11"/7" = 8.5"/x

x = 7" x 8.5"/11" = 59.5"/11 = 5.409 ≅ 5.41"

If we wanted to keep most of the engraving, we would adjust the larger dimension, but we have been asked to adjust one dimension to 5", since it is said that C. x = 5.41 is incorrect

Then we will adjust

ORIGINAL/NEW = 11"/y = 8.5"/5"

y= 11" x 5"/8.5" = 6.47"

Then the new dimensions of the paper are 6.47" x 5" to fit an 7" x 5" frame

Answer: A. x= 5"
