Answer:

<u>200 additional gallons of water are used when 40 people take a bath instead of a shower</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Let's review the information given to us to answer the question correctly:

Amount of water used when we take a bath = 20 gallons

Amount of water used when we take a shower = 15 gallons

Number of people who wants to take a bath = 40

2. How much extra water is used?

Extra water is used = Number of people * (Amount of water used when we take a bath - Amount of water used when we take a shower)

Replacing with the real values, we have:

Extra water is used = 40 * (20 - 15)

Extra water is used = 40 * 5 = 200 gallons

Solve the following quadratic equation.

Nonamiya [84]

Given:

Consider the given equation is

$(x-18)^2=1$

To find:

The values of x.

Solution:

We have,

$(x-18)^2=1$

Taking square root on both sides, we get

$x-18=\pm\sqrt{1}$

$x-18=\pm 1$

Adding 18 on both sides, we get

$x-18+18=\pm 1+18$

$x=\pm 1+18$

Now,

$x=1+18$ and $x=-1+18$

$x=19$ and $x=17$

Therefore, the correct option is A.

Ace car rental rents cars for x dollars per day plus y dollars for each time mile driven. Carlos rented a car fir 4 days, drove

kati45 [8]

4x + 160y = 120
and
1x + 240y = 80

that will be be the equations. if we multiply the bottom equation by 4 we get:
4x + 960y = 320

now subtract one equation from another:
4x + 160y = 120
-(4x + 960y = 320)

and get:
-800y = -200
y = $0.25

now plug this into one equation
x +240(.25) = 80
x + 60 = 80
x = $20

so $20 per day and $0.25 per mile
