3 feet is in 1 yard.
Therefore, 3x feet is in x yard.
The amount of gas consumed by first and second car were 20 gallons and 15 gallons respectively.
<em><u>Explanation</u></em>
Suppose,
gallons of gas were consumed by the first car.
As the total gas consumption in one week is 35 gallons, so the amount of gas consumed by second car will be:
gallons.
The first car has a fuel efficiency of 35 miles per gallon of gas and the second has a fuel efficiency of 15 miles per gallon of gas.
So, the <u>distance traveled by the first car</u> in
gallons of gas
miles and the <u>distance traveled by the second car</u> in
gallons of gas
miles.
Given that, the two cars went a <u>combined total of 925 miles</u>. So, the equation will be.....
![35x+15(35-x)=925\\ \\ 35x+525-15x=925\\ \\ 20x=925-525=400\\ \\ x=\frac{400}{20}=20](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=35x%2B15%2835-x%29%3D925%5C%5C%20%5C%5C%2035x%2B525-15x%3D925%5C%5C%20%5C%5C%2020x%3D925-525%3D400%5C%5C%20%5C%5C%20x%3D%5Cfrac%7B400%7D%7B20%7D%3D20)
So, the amount of gas consumed by the first car is 20 gallons and the amount of gas consumed by the second car is: (35 - 20) = 15 gallons.
Answer:
7 1/5 pounds in each basket
Step-by-step explanation:
Original pounds of onion = 9 3/5
New pounds of onion = 4 4/5
The onions then were mixed and kept in 2 baskets with each basket having equal pounds on onions
Total onions = Original pounds of onion + New pounds of onion
= 9 3/5 + 4 4/5
= 48/5 + 24/5
= 48+24/5
= 72 / 5 pounds
How many pounds of onions does each basket contain?
Pounds in each basket = Total pounds /2 basket
= 72/5 ÷ 2
= 72/5 × 1/2
= 72 / 10
= 7 2/10
= 7 1/5 pounds in each basket
Yur answer will be -28 hope it helped :)
