Answer: $17,875

Step-by-step explanation:

take 27,500 and multiply it by 35% or .35

27500 x .35= 9625

take 9625 and subtract it from the initial value

27500 - 9625= 17875

A line has a slope of -3 and includes the point (-5,4) and (-7,q). What is the value of q​
serious [3.7K]

Answer:

q = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

\text{slope} =-3=\frac{q-4}{-7-(-5)} =\frac{q-4}{-2} \\\Longrightarrow -3=\frac{q-4}{-2} \\\Longrightarrow \left( -3\right)  \times \left( -2\right)  =q-4\\\Longrightarrow 6=q-4\\\Longrightarrow q=6+4\\\Longrightarrow q=10

Amy drives her car until the gas gauge is down to 1/8 full, then she fills the tank to capacity by adding 14 gallons. What is th
Kazeer [188]

Answer:

Amy's car tank capacity is 16 gallons.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the capacity of the tank be 'x'

Given:

Amount of gas in the car till it is refilled = \frac{1}{8}\times x = \frac{1}{8}x \ gallons

Amount of gas added = 14 gallons.

We need to find the capacity of the tank.

Solution:

Now we can say that

Total Capacity of the tank is equal to sum of Amount of gas in the car till it is refilled and Amount of gas added.

framing in equation form we get;

x=\frac{x}{8}+14

Combining the like terms we get;

x-\frac{x}{8}=14

Now making the denominators common we will use L.C.M.

\frac{8x}{8}-\frac{x\times1}{8\times1}=14\\\\\frac{8x}{8}-\frac{x}{8}=14\\\\\frac{8x-x}{8}=14\\\\\frac{7x}{8}=14

Now multiplying both side by 8 we get;

\frac{7x}{8}\times 8=14\times8\\\\7x = 112

Now dividing both side by 7 we get;

\frac{7x}{7}=\frac{112}{7}\\\\x=16\ gallons

Hence Amy's car tank capacity is 16 gallons.

An exam worth 148 points contains 36 questions. Some questions are worth 2 points, and the others are worth 6 points. How many 2
Airida [17]

In order to solve for this question, let's assign a couple variables.

The variable 't' will represent the number of two-point questions, and the variable 's' will represent the number of six point questions.

From the given, we can already form two equations:

t + s = 36

("An exam... contains 36 questions")

2t + 6s = 148

("An exam worth 148 points... Some questions are worth 2 points, and the others are worth 6 points")

Before we begin calculating anything, we can simplify the second equation we made, since all the numbers are divisible by 2:

2t + 6s = 148

t + 3s = 74

Now let's refer back to the first equation. We can subtract both sides by 's' (you could also subtract both sides by 't', but I personally think that this will make solving the equation less difficult):

t + s = 36

t = 36 - s

This effectively gives us a value for the variable 't'. We can assign this value back into our first equation:

t + 3s = 74

(36 - s) + 3s = 74

36 + 2s = 74

2s = 38

s = 19

Input 's' into our second equation to solve for 't':

t = 36 - s

t = 36 - 19

t = 17

There are 17 two-point questions and 19 six-point questions

- T.B.
