Five days a week, you carpool with 3 co-workers and take turns driving each week. It is 14 miles from your home to your office.

When you drive the carpool you must go an extra 4 miles to pick up your co-workers. If your car averages 18 miles per gallon, about how many gallons of gas should you save every 4 weeks by carpooling?

Answer:

I will save 21.11 gallons in 4 weeks of car pooling.

Step-by-step explanation:

If i have to go office alone then in 4 weeks i will be driving my car = 2×distance from office to home×number of days = 2×14×(4×5) = 28×20 = 560 km.

Now when i carpool with 3 co-workers then i have to drive my car only for 1 week out of 4 weeks.

Means i will be driving total distance = 2× ( distance form office to home + addition distance to pickup co-workers) × number of days

= 2 × (14+4) × 5= 180 km

Now the distance I drove less in 4 weeks = 560 - 180 = 380 km

My car averages 18 miles per gallon gas.

Therefore amount of gas I saved in 4 weeks = 380/18 = 21.11 gallons

Dario divides 4/6 yard of rope equally into 1/12 yard pieces for a craft project.How many pieces of rope does Dario have?Use a n
zubka84 [21]

Answer:

Eight pieces

Step-by-step explanation:

Create a number line running from 0 to 4/6.

Label the divisions as 1/6, 2/6, 3/6, and 4/6.

Divide each section in half to get small pieces of length 1/12.

Starting at zero, move to 4/6 on the number line and count the number of pieces as you go.

You count eight pieces, so Dario has eight pieces of rope.

C bisects AB. If AC = 8x - 1 and BC = 4x + 19, what is the length of AB?
tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

The length of AB is 78 units.

<h3>What is a Line Segment?</h3>

A line segment is defined as a measured path between two places. Line segments can make up any polygon's sides because they have a set length.

The figure is given below shows a line segment AB , where the length of line segment AB refers to the distance between its endpoints, A and B.

Given that C is the midpoint of AB

AC = 8x - 1 and BC = 4x + 19,

A______________C______________B

⇒ AB = AC+ BC

Since C is the bisects of AB, So AC = BC

⇒ AB = AC+ BC

⇒ AB = 2AC

Substitute the values of If AC = 8x - 1 and BC = 4x + 19,

⇒ 8x - 1 = 4x + 19,

Rearranging the terms in the above equation,

⇒ 8x - 4x  = 1 + 19,

⇒ 4x = 20,

⇒ x = 20/4,

⇒ x = 5

So AB = 2AC

⇒ AB = 2(8x - 1) = 16x -2

Substitute the value of x = 5 in the above equation,

⇒ AB = 16(5) -2

⇒ AB = 78

Hence, the length of AB is 78 units.
