Answer:

22 more gallons.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Car A's fuel efficiency is 34 miles per gallon of gasoline.

Car B's fuel efficiency is 23 miles per gallon of gasoline.

Question asked:

At those rates, how many more gallons of gasoline would car B consume than car A on a 1,564 miles trip?

Solution:

<u>Car A's fuel efficiency is 34 miles per gallon of gasoline.</u>

<u>By unitary method:</u>

Car A can travel 34 miles in = 1 gallon

Car A can travel 1 mile in = \frac{1}{34} \ gallon

Car A can travel 1564 miles in = \frac{1}{34} \times1564=46\ gallons

<u>Car B's fuel efficiency is 23 miles per gallon of gasoline.</u>

Car B can travel 23 miles in = 1 gallon

Car B can travel 1 mile in = \frac{1}{23} \ gallon

Car B can travel 1564 mile in = \frac{1}{23} \times1564=68\ gallons

We found that for 1564 miles trip Car A consumes 46 gallons of gasoline while  Car B consumes 68 gallons of gasoline that means Car B consumes 68 - 46 = 22 gallons more gasoline than Car A.

Thus, Car B consumes 22 more gallons of gasoline than Car A consumes.

The sum of three consecutive multiples of 4 is 444. Find the multiples.<br> PLEASE ANS FAST PLS
SOVA2 [1]

Answer:

144,148,152

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we will have, 4x + 4(x+1) + 4(x+2) = 444

=> x + (x+1) + (x+2) = 111 (dividing both sides by 4)

=>x + x+1 + x+2 =111

=> 3x + 3 = 111

=> 3x = 108

=> x = 36.

So, the three desired numbers 4x, 4(x+1) and 4(x+2) are,

4*36, 4*(36+1) and 4*(36+2)

That means the numbers are, 144, 148 and 152.

If x+y=9, and 8(x+3y)= 120, what is the value of x-y
Triss [41]

Answer:

3

Explanation:

Apply Multiplicative Distribution Law:

{x + y =9

{8x + 24y = 120

Reduce the greatest common factor on both sides of the equation.

{x + y = 9

{x + 3y = 15

Subtract the two equations: x + y - (x +3y) = 9 - 15

Remove paranthesis: x + y - x - 3y = 9 - 15

Cancel the unknown variables: y - 3y = 9 - 15

Combine like terms: -2y=9 - 15

Calculate the sum or difference: -2y = -6

Reduce the greatest common factor on both sides of the equation: y =3

Substitute one unknown quantity into the elimination: x + 3 = 9

Rearrange unknown terms to the left side of the equation: x = 9 - 3

Calculate the sum or difference: x = 6

Write the solution set of equations: {x = 6

                                                           {y = 3

Substitute: 6 - 3

Calculate the sum or difference: 3

Answer:

\displaystyle log_\frac{1}{2}(64)=-6

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Properties of Logarithms</u>

We'll recall below the basic properties of logarithms:

log_b(1) = 0

Logarithm of the base:

log_b(b) = 1

Product rule:

log_b(xy) = log_b(x) + log_b(y)

Division rule:

\displaystyle log_b(\frac{x}{y}) = log_b(x) - log_b(y)

Power rule:

log_b(x^n) = n\cdot log_b(x)

Change of base:

\displaystyle log_b(x) = \frac{ log_a(x)}{log_a(b)}

Simplifying logarithms often requires the application of one or more of the above properties.

Simplify

\displaystyle log_\frac{1}{2}(64)

Factoring 64=2^6.

\displaystyle log_\frac{1}{2}(64)=\displaystyle log_\frac{1}{2}(2^6)

Applying the power rule:

\displaystyle log_\frac{1}{2}(64)=6\cdot log_\frac{1}{2}(2)

Since

\displaystyle 2=(1/2)^{-1}

\displaystyle log_\frac{1}{2}(64)=6\cdot log_\frac{1}{2}((1/2)^{-1})

Applying the power rule:

\displaystyle log_\frac{1}{2}(64)=-6\cdot log_\frac{1}{2}(\frac{1}{2})

Applying the logarithm of the base:

\mathbf{\displaystyle log_\frac{1}{2}(64)=-6}
