This is how I'd set it up:
405/20 = 243/x 
this means the mpg (miles / gallons) for 1 situation is the same as the mpg for the other situation (because the rate is the same)
then just cross multiply and solve:
405x=243*20 or 405x=4860 or x = 12
he would need 12 gallons of gas for 243 miles

Answer: Y = 3/4x + 3

Step-by-step explanation:

If two lines are perpendicular, then the product of the two slopes should be -1.

First change 4x + 3y = 7 to Slope intercept form

  (4x - 4x) + 3y = 7 - 4x

   3y/3 = 7/3 - 4/3x

    Y = -4/3x + 7/3 ( -4/3 is the slope)

  Then find the slope of line n

     -4/3 x S = -1

      (-3/4 x -4/3) x S = -1 x -3/4

       S = 3/4

    Slope of line n is 3/4

      Next find the Y-intercept of line n

     Since line n contains (2,3) we can use 3 as the y-intercept of line n

          Hence, the equation of line n is Y = 3/4x + 3

What is an algebraic expression to represent the perimeter of a rectangle with a width of x+5 and a length of 3x+10?
Sveta_85 [38]
We know that the area of a rectangle is equal to the width multiplied by the length. So in this case the algebraic expression is (x+5)*(3x+10). You get 3x^2 +10x +15x +50= 3x^2 +25x +50.
