Answer:

a) 101.125 gallons.

b) 3312 miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

You know that Jane's car will go 420 miles on 17.5 gallons of gasoline in highway driving, therefore:

a) You can calculate the number of gallons it will take to drive 2427 miles from her house to a friend's house as following:

$\frac{420miles}{17.5gallons}=\frac{2427miles}{x}\\x=101.125gallons$

b) You can calculate the distance the car can be driven on 138 gallons of gasoline as shown below:

$\frac{420miles}{17.5gallons}=\frac{y}{138gallons}\\y=3312miles$

What is the solution to the linear equation? d – 10 – 2d + 7 = 8 + d – 10 – 3d

pishuonlain [190]

Answer:

d = 0.33

Step-by-step explanation:

First off, you want to get like terms next to each other. We'll move the numbers with variables on one side and normal numbers on the other. Since we're changing the sides of the equal sign they're on, this also changes whether their positive or negative.

d - d - 2d + 3d = 10 -7 + 8 - 10

Now that they're together, we can add or subtract them. The variables without numbers can be ones for this equation.

3d = 1

Now we divide 1 by 3 to find what d equals.

3d/3 = 1/3

d = 0.33

You practice playing your guitar every day. You spend 15 minutes practicing chords and the rest of the time practicing a new son

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the total time taken to practice is given by the expression as

y=7(15+x)

Simplifying the expression we have

y=105+7x

Solving for x (that is making x subject of formula we have)

7x=y-105

Divide both sides by 7 we have

x=(y-105)/7

Therefore the expression is

x=(y-105)/7

Rewrite the expression using the properties of exponents.

stiv31 [10]

Answer:

$x^2\sqrt[3]{x}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The relevant properties of exponents are ...

(a^b)(a^c) = a^(b+c)

(a^b)^c = a^(bc)

1/a^b = a^-b

Your expression simplifies to ...

$\displaystyle x^{\frac{6}{3}+\frac{6}{9}-\frac{1}{3}}=x^{\frac{7}{3}}\\\\=x^2\sqrt[3]{x}$
