Answer:

The rate is 12 miles per gallon.

Step-by-step explanation:

The vehicle uses 1 1/8 gallons of gasoline to travel 13 1/2 miles.

\implies 1\frac{1}{8}\text{ gallon of gasoline}=13\frac{1}{2}\text{ miles}

\frac{9}{8}\text{ gallon of gasoline}=\frac{27}{2}\text{ miles}

1 \text{ gallon of gasoline}= \frac{8\times 27}{9\times 2}\text{ miles}

1 \text{ gallon of gasoline}= \frac{216}{18}\text{ miles}

1 \text{ gallon of gasoline}= 12\text{ miles}

Hence, the vehicle can travel 12 miles with one gallon of gasoline,

⇒ The rate of travelling is 12 miles per gallon.

The financial statements of the Tyler Company report net sales of $300,000 and accounts receivable of $50,000 and $10,000 at the
iragen [17]

Answer:

the accounts receivable turnover for the Tyler Company is 10

Step-by-step explanation:

The company report :

net sales = $300,000

account receivable  = $50,000 and $10,000

to find the accounts receivable turnover, use the following formula:

accounts receivable turnover = net sales : average account receivable

First, we need to calculate the average account receivable of  the company

average accounts receivable = ($50,000+$10,000) : 2

                                              = $60,000 : 2

                                              = $30,000

Then, substitute net sales into the formula

accounts receivable turnover = $300,000 : $30,000

                                              = 10

Anastaziya [24]

Answer:

a = (r/x) -b

x = -14

Step-by-step explanation:

r=x(a+b)

Divide each side by x

r/x = a+b

Subtract b

r/x  -b = a

x/2=-7

Multiply each side by 2

x/2*2 = -7*2

x = -14
