Sathish is going on a 2100-kilometer road trip with 2 friends, whom he will pick up 150 kilometers after he begins the trip and

drop off when there are 150 kilometer remaining. The car consumes 6 liters of gas for every 100 kilometers, and gas costs $1.20 per liter.
Sathish will pay for all of the gas when he is alone in the car, but he and his friends will split the cost evenly when they are together.

How much will Sathish pay for gas?

Sathish has to pay \$\text{ }64.8 for the gas consumption while travelling on a \text{2100 kilometers} road trip.

Further explanation:

On a \text{2100 kilometers} road trip, Sathish is alone in his car for first \text{150 kilometers} and the last \text{150 kilometers} such that the total distance that Satish travelled alone is,

\fbox{\begin\\150 + 150 = 300{\text{ kilometers}}\end{minispace}}

So, the distance for which Sathish travels with his two friends is,

\fbox{\begin\\2100 - 300 = 1800{\text{ kilometers}}\end{minispace}}

The cost of one litre gas consumption is \$\text{ }1.2.

Since it is given that the car consumes \text{6 litres} of gas for every \text{100 kilometers} then the gas consumption for a kilometer is obtained as,

\text{Gas consumed per kilometer}= \frac{6}{100}

Therefore, when Sathish is travelling alone in his car, the gas consumption is obtained as shown below.

\fbox{\begin{minispace} \\\text{Gas consumption when Sathish is alone=}\dfrac{6}{100}\times 300 = 18\text{ litres}\\\\\end{minispace}}

Then the price for this journey will be owned by Sathish alone and is calculated as \fbox{\begin{minispace} \\\\18\times 1.2\\\end{minispace}}.

Now, for the remaining \text{1800 kilometers} when Sathish is travelling with his two friends, the gas consumption is obtained as,

\fbox{\begin{minispace} \\\\\text{Gas consumption when Sathish is with his two friends=}\dfrac{6}{100}\times 1800 = 108\text{ litres}\\\\\end{minispace}}

The total price of gas consumption during the journey travelled by Sathish with his friends will be {108}\times 1.2.

Then the price of this journey will be divided among the three such that Sathish has to pay the amount calculated as \fbox{\begin{minispace} \\\dfrac{108\times 1.2}{3}\\\end{minispace}}.

Hence, the total amount that is to be paid by Sathish is,

\text{Sathish's Share} = (18 \times 1.2) + 108 \times \left( 1.2 \times \dfrac{1}{3}\right) \\

\text{Sathish's Share} = 21.6 + (108 \times 0.4) \\

\text{Sathish's Share} = 21.6 + 43.2 \\

\text{Sathish's Share} = 64.8 \\

Therefore, Sathish has to pay \fbox{\begin\$\text{ }64.8\end{minispace}}.

A line passes through the points (-2, 9) and (1, 3).
siniylev [52]

Answer:

slope = -2

y-intercept = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Find slope:

\frac{3-9}{1-(-2)} =  \frac{-6}{3} = -2

-2 = slope

2) Find y intercept trough point slope and slope-intercept forms

y - y1 = m (x - x1)

y - 9 = -2 (x + 2)

y - 9 = -2x -4

  + 9         + 9

y = -2x + 5

y = mx + b with b being the y-intercept

5 = y-intercept

Lin solved the equation 8(x-3)+7=2x(4-17) incorrectly. Find the errors in her solution. What should her answer have been?
Irina-Kira [14]

Answer: The correr solution is x=\frac{17}{34}

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the steps in Lin's solution are not shown, we are not able to find her erros. However, we can solve it step by step and find the correct result:

8(x-3)+7=2x(4-17)

Firstly, in the left part of the equation we have to multiply 8 by the numbers inside the parenthesis; and in the right side we have to solve first what is inside the parenthesis:

8x-24+7=2x(-13)

Adding similar terms in the left side and multiplying 2x by the number inside the parenthesis in the right side:

8x-17=-26 x

Isolating x:

x=\frac{17}{34} This is the correct solution

A scale model of a ramp is a right triangular prism as given in this figure. in the actual ramp, the triangular base has a heigh
kakasveta [241]

The surface area of the actual ramp including the underside is 16.8 ft²

The height of the actual ramp = 1.2 feet  

The height of the model = 6 cm

<h3>What is the surface area of a right triangular prism?</h3>

A right triangular prism is a 3-dimensional triangle with two congruent triangular faces and 3 rectangular faces that connect the triangular.

The surface area of a right triangular prism

= (Perimeter of the base × Length of the prism) + (2 × Base Area)

Scale factor = 1.2 feet / 6 cm = 0.2 ft/cm

Actual base = 16 cm × 0.2 ft/cm = 3.2 ft

convert the units

9 cm = 9 cm × 0.2 ft/cm = 1.8 ft

10 cm = 10 cm × 0.2 ft/cm = 2 ft

The surface area of a right triangular prism

= (Perimeter of the base × Length of the prism) + (2 × Base Area)

Surface area of actual ramp = 2(0.5 × 3.2 ft × 1.2 ft) + 2(2 ft × 1.8 ft) + (1.8 ft × 3.2 ft)

= 16.8 ft²

Hence, the surface area of the actual ramp including the underside is 16.8 ft²
