∴ As from the given options, is the correct choice.
Answer:
AC = 6
Step-by-step explanation:
y is the dimension of the horizontal segment (see the attached image).
The hypotenuses are the same dimension, so:
(x+4)^2=(x/2)^2+y^2
(3x-8)^2=(x/2)^2+y^2
So,
(x+4)^2 = (3x-8)^2
x+4 = 3x-8
x-3x = -8-4
-2x = -12
x = 6
And x is the dimension of the segment AC.
Answer:
B
Step-by-step explanation:
For 11 1/2 gallons, he paid $36.80.
We need to find the cost per gallon.
First, converting 11 1/2 gallons to decimal, it is:
1/2 = 0.5
So, 11 1/2 is 11.5 gallons
So, Cost Per Gallon (last week) =
There is 5% increase on this $3.20 per gallon. We find 5% of 3.2 and add it to 3.2 to find this week's cost per gallon.
<em>5% = 5/100 = 0.05</em>
<em>0.05 * 3.20 = 0.16</em>
<em>So,</em>
<em>3.20 + 0.16 = $3.36 per gallon</em>
<em />
Cost Per Gallon (this week) = $3.36
To buy 9 1/4 gallons it would take:
<u>Note:</u> 1/4 = 0.25, so 9 1/4 = 9.25
It would cost $31.08 to buy 9.25 gallons this week
Correct answer is B
