Oi:gas=9:19

if gas=152 then find oil

ratio and proprtion

oil:gas=9:19=x:152
9:19=x:152
convert to fraction
\frac{9}{19}=\frac{x}{152}
multiply both sides by 152
\frac{1368}{19}=x
72=x

72 oz of oil

9/19 = x / 152....9 oz oil to 19 gallons gas = x oz oil to 152 gallons gas
cross multiply because this is a proportion
(19)(x) = (152)(9)
19x = 1368
x = 1368/19
x = 72 oz of oil <==

The sum of two numbers is 18 the sum of greater numbers and twice the smaller numbers is 25 the numbers
Gnoma [55]

Answer:

  the numbers are 7 and 11

Step-by-step explanation:

If you add the smaller to the sum of numbers, you have the sum of the greater and twice the smaller. That is ...

  18 + smaller = 25

  smaller = 25 -18 = 7

  larger = 18 -7 = 11

The two numbers are 7 and 11.

_____

If you like, you can write two equations. Let x and y represent the smaller and larger numbers, respectively.

  x + y = 18

  2x + y = 25

Subtract the first equation from the second:

  (2x +y) -(x +y) = (25) -(18)

  x = 7

  y = 18-x = 18-7 = 11

The numbers are 7 and 11.

Tom wishes to purchase a property that has been valued at $300,000. He has $30,000 available as a deposit, and will require a mo
Mekhanik [1.2K]

Answer: The total interest paid on the mortgage is $179550

Step-by-step explanation:

The initial cost of the property is $300000. If he deposits $30000, the remaining amount would be

300000 - 30000 = $270000

Since the remaining amount was compounded, we would apply the formula for determining compound interest which is expressed as

A = P(1+r/n)^nt

Where

A = total amount in the account at the end of t years

r represents the interest rate.

n represents the periodic interval at which it was compounded.

P represents the principal or initial amount deposited

From the information given,

P = 270000

r = 2% = 2/100 = 0.02

n = 12 because it was compounded 12 times in a year.

t = 25 years

Therefore,

A = 270000(1+0.02/12)^12 × 25

A = 270000(1+0.0017)^300

A = 270000(1.0017)^300

A = $449550

The total interest paid on the mortgage is

449550 - 270000 = $179550

What are the roots of the function y = 4x2 + 2x – 30? To find the roots of the function, set y = 0. The equation is 0 = 4x2 + 2x
nasty-shy [4]
4x² + 2x - 30 = 0
<span>
factor out the GCF:
</span>2(2x² + x - 15) = 0
<span>
factor the trinomial completely:
2x</span>² + x - 15 = 0
2x² + 6x - 5x - 15 = 0
2x(x + 3) - 5(x + 3) = 0
(2x - 5)(x + 3) = 0

<span>use the zero product property and set each factor equal to zero and solve:
2x - 5 = 0     or     x + 3 = 0
2x = 5                   x = -3
x = 2.5

</span><span>The roots of the function are x=-3,  x=2.5</span>
