Car 1: 15x

Car 2: 20y

15x+20y=1300

x+y=75

So y=75-x

15x+20(75-x)=1300

-5x+1500=1300

-5x=-200

x=40.

y=75-40

y=35

Car 1: 40 gallons

Car 2: 35 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

it is an isoceles triangle (equally long legs).

there is a right angle at W, so YW is the height of the isoceles triangle XYZ.

that means W splits XZ in half.

therefore,

ZW = XZ/2 = 38/2 = 19

Please answer this math question.
Elenna [48]

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

The technical probability of rolling any number on a standard die is 1/6 because there's six numbers. Based on that, since he rolled a "4" on 5 tosses, it seems likely that it's 30 times, because 1/6 of 30 is 5. I haven't done probability in awhile but if I remember correctly that should be right

I will use fancy gold and red wrapping paper for two packages i have to wrap. I will use 1 2/4 yard of paper for one of the boxe
Allisa [31]
Well you need first 1 2/4 of a yard. Then you will need 5/6 of a yard. But first you need to put them together. So we need to find the common denominator. Six and four both share which multiple? Twelve. So let's rewrite that. You need 1 6/12 yards + 10/12 yards of wrapping paper. But before we do anything else we need to fix the mixed number. 1 6/12 isn't as easy to add ad 18/12 is. So 18/12 + 10/12 = 28/12
That can simplify as well. Now it's 14/6 which is equivalent to the fraction we had before. But it can also go down to 2 2/6. Now we can simplify it even further. By dividing it by two we can get 2 1/3. These are the measurements we need. So you would need how many thirds? Seven. (2 1/3 is seven thirds) This is your final answer.

You would need to have seven peices of wrapping paper cut to wrap both gift boxes.

What is the following product?
VMariaS [17]

For this case we must find the product of the following expression:

\sqrt {12} * \sqrt {18}

We combine using the product rule for radicals:

\sqrt [n] {a} * \sqrt [n] {b} = \sqrt [n] {ab}

So, we have:

\sqrt {12 * 18} =\\\sqrt {216} =

We rewrite the 216 as6 * 6 * 6 = 6 ^ 3 = 6 ^ 2 * 6

\sqrt {6 ^ 2 * 6} =

By definition of properties of powers and roots we have:

\sqrt [n] {a ^ n} = a ^ {\frac {n} {n}} = a

Then, the expression is:

6 \sqrt {6}

Option D
