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}}.

This makes no sense to me keep getting the wrong answers when i try to figure it out
satela [25.4K]
To solve this problem, you'd want to start by finding the mean of the given numbers. To find the mean, add all the numbers together and divide by how many there are.

Next, you'll see that the question says one of the rents changes from $1130 to $930. So find the mean of all the numbers again, except include $930 in your calculation instead of $1130.

I got $990 as the mean for the given numbers, and $970 as the mean after replacing the $1130 with $930. Subtracting the two means gives you $20. So the mean decreased by $20.

Now for the median, all you need to do is find the median of the given numbers and compare them with the median of the new data. Because there are ten terms, you have to add the middle two numbers and divide by two. $990 + $1020 = 2010. 2010÷2 = $1005 as the first median.

The new rent is 930, so you have to reorder the data so it goes from least to greatest again. 745, 915, 925, 930, 965, 990, 1020, 1040, 1050, 1120. After finding the median again you get 977.5. Subtracting the two medians gives you $27.5 as how much the median decreased. Hope this helps!

Match the following rational expressions to their rewritten forms.
Nookie1986 [14]

Answer:

Answer image is attached.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given rational expressions:

1.\ \dfrac{x^2+x+4}{x-2}\\2.\ \dfrac{x^2-x+4}{x-2}\\3.\ \dfrac{x^2-4x+10}{x-2}\\4.\ \dfrac{x^2-5x+16}{x-2}

And the rewritten forms:

(x-2)+\dfrac{6}{x-2}\\(x+3)+\dfrac{10}{x-2}\\(x+1)+\dfrac{6}{x-2}\\(x-3)+\dfrac{10}{x-2}

We have to match the rewritten terms with the given expressions.

Let us consider the rewritten terms and let us solve them one by one by taking LCM.

(x-2)+\dfrac{6}{x-2}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{(x-2)^{2}+6 }{x-2}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{x^2-4x+4+6 }{x-2}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{x^2-4x+10}{x-2}

So, correct option is 3.

(x+3)+\dfrac{10}{x-2}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{(x+3)(x-2)+10}{x-2}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{(x^2+3x-2x-6)+10}{x-2}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{x^2+x+4}{x-2}

So, correct option is 1.

(x+1)+\dfrac{6}{x-2}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{(x+1)(x-2)+6}{x-2}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{x^{2} +x-2x-2+6}{x-2}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{x^{2} -x+4}{x-2}

So, correct option is 2.

(x-3)+\dfrac{10}{x-2}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{(x-3)(x-2)+10}{x-2}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{x^2-3x-2x+6+10}{x-2}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{x^2-5x+16}{x-2}

So, correct option is 4.

11) a - 15 &gt;-40-6 + 3a)<br>​
SOVA2 [1]

Answer:

a < \frac{31}{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

a - 15 > - 40 - 6 + 3a ← simplify right side

a - 15 > - 46 + 3a ( subtract a from both sides )

- 15 > - 46 + 2a ( add 46 to both sides )

31 > 2a ( divide both sides by 2 )

\frac{31}{2} > a ⇒ a < \frac{31}{2}
