Answer:

The car can travel 147 miles on 7 gallons of gas

Step-by-step explanation:

A car traveled on 3 gallons of gas = 63 miles

car traveled on 1 gallons of gas = $\frac{63}{3}$ = 21 miles

Therefore, car traveled on 7 gallons of gas = 21 × 7 = 147 miles.

The proportion will be = $\frac{\text{Total traveled distance}}{\text{required gallons of gas}}$ × 7 = $\frac{63}{3}$ × 7

The car can travel 147 miles on 7 gallons of gas.

For one gallon the car will travel (63/3) miles
therefore for 7 gallons the car will travel
(63/3)*7 = m

What is the largest possible product of two odd integers whose sum is 42?

Mandarinka [93]

441.

You can tell this because the largest area of any rectangle is when it is a square. Even sides will always produce the greatest area. Thus, 21 and 21 would be the best numbers to use.

Karen wants to distract her noisy four-year-old child at a restaurant. She pulls out a bag that has 4 black marbles, 8 red marbl

kicyunya [14]

With 21 marbles in the bag, and 9 of them green, her chances are 9/21 that she will pull a green marble. If you reduce 9/21 you get 3/7 which is the way the answer should be expressed (in lowest terms)

The area of a rectangle is 42 ft squared, and the length of the rectangle is 5 ft more than twice the width. Find the dimensions

stira [4]

Answer:

<h3>Length = 12 ft</h3>

Width = $\frac{7}{2} ft$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Area of rectangle = $42 \: {ft}^{2}$

Width = X

Length = 2x + 5

Now,

$x(2x + 5) = 42$

$2 {x}^{2} + 5x = 42$

$2 {x}^{2} + 5x - 42 = 0$

$2 {x}^{2} + 12x - 7x - 42 = 0$

$2x(x + 6) - 7(x + 6) = 0$

$(2x - 7)(x + 6) = 0$

Either

$2x - 7 = 0$

$2x = 0 + 7$

$2x = 7$

$x = \frac{7}{2}$

Or,

$x + 6 = 0$

$x = 0 - 6$

$x = - 6$

Negative value can't be taken.

So, width = $\frac{7}{2} ft$

Again,

Finding the value of length,

Length = $2x + 5$

$2 \times \frac{7}{2} + 5$

$7 + 5$

$12$

Length = 12 ft
