His car gets 21 mpg (miles per gallon). With 1 gallon he can drive 21 miles. For example, with 10 gallons, he can drive 21 mpg * 10 gal = 210 miles.

He bought $19.50 worth of gas at $1.40 per gallon.
$19.50 / ($1.40/gal) = 13.93 gal

He already had 5 gal of gas in his tanks, so now he has
5 gal + 13.93 gal = 18.93 gal

With 18.93 gal, he can drive
18.93 gal * 21 mpg = 292.5 miles

What is 6x – 8 = 4 written as a system? y = 6x – 8 y = –4 y = 6x – 8 y = 4 y = –6x + 8 y = 4
mestny [16]

6x – 8 = 4 written as a system. Hence second option is correct

<u>Solution:</u>

Given, equation is 6x – 8 = 4.

We have to find the equivalent system from given options.

First let us solve given equation, 6x – 8 = 4 ⇒ 6x = 4 + 8 ⇒ 6x = 12 ⇒ x = 2

Now, let us solve one by one option ,so that when we get above solution, that is correct option.

  • y = 6x – 8 and y = -4 ⇒ put y = -4 in y = 6x – 8 ⇒ 6x – 8 = -4 ⇒ 6x = 8 – 4

⇒ 6x = 4 ⇒ x ≠ 2, wrong option

  • y = 6x – 8 and y = 4 ⇒ put y = 4 in y = 6x – 8 ⇒ 6x – 8 = 4 ⇒ 6x = 8 + 4 ⇒ 6x = 12 ⇒ x = 2, right option.
  • y = -6x + 8 and y = 4 ⇒ put y = 4 in y = -6x + 8 ⇒ -6x + 8 = 4 ⇒ 6x = 8 – 4 ⇒ 6x = 4 ⇒ x ≠ 2, wrong option

hence, second option is correct.

a boat costs 11,850 and decreases in value by 10% per year. how much will the boat be worth after 8 years
lawyer [7]
If the boat initially cost $11850 and INCREASED in value by 10% per year, we'd calculate the final value like this:

V = $11850(1+0.10)^8

But if the boat is losing value (depreciating) over time, we'd calculate its final value like this:

V = $11850(1-0.10)^8  =  $11850(0.90)^8 = $11850(0.4305) = $5101.04 (answer)

Riverside Elementary School is holding a school-wide election to choose a school color. 5/8 of the voters were for blue 5/9 of t
padilas [110]

Answer:

There were 180 voters for blue color.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the total number of voters be 'x'.

Given:

Number of Voters for blue color = \frac{5}{8}x

Number of Voters for green color = \frac{5}{9}(x-\frac58x)=\frac59x(1-\frac58)

Now we will use LCM to make the denominator common we get;

Number of Voters for green color = \frac59x(\frac88-\frac58)=\frac59x(\frac{8-5}{9})=\frac59x(\frac38)=\frac{15x}{72}

Number of Voters for red color = 48

We need to find the number of voters for blue color.

Solution:

Now we can say that;

total number of voters is equal to sum of Number of Voters for blue color, Number of Voters for green color and Number of Voters for red color.

framing in equation form we get;

x=\frac58x+\frac{15x}{72}+48

Combining like terms we get;

x-\frac58x-\frac{15x}{72} = 48

Now we will make denominators common using LCM we get;

\frac{72x}{72}-\frac{5x\times9}{8\times9}-\frac{15x\times1}{72\times 1} = 48\\\\\frac{72x}{72}-\frac{45x}{72}-\frac{15x}{72} = 48

Now denominators are common so we will solve the numerators we get;

\frac{72x-45x-15x}{72}=48\\\\\frac{12x}{72}=48\\\\\frac{x}{6}=48

Now multiplying both side by 6 we get;

\frac{1}{6}x\times6=48\times6\\\\x = 288

Number of voters for blue color = \frac{5}{8}x=\frac{5}{8}\times 288= 180

Hence There were 180 voters for blue color.
