The combustion of one gallon of automobile fuel produces about 5 pounds of carbon (in CO₂). Two autos are making a trip of 600 m

rewona [7]

Answer:

Approximately 50 pounds less carbon (in CO₂) will be produced by the second auto on this trip.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that the combustion of one gallon of automobile fuel produces about 5 pounds of carbon (in CO₂). Two autos are making a trip of 600 miles.

Let us find amount of fuel used by autos by dividing the total distance by their mileage.

$\text{Fuel used by 1st auto}=\frac{\text{ 600 miles}}{\frac{\text{ 20 miles}}{\text{gallon}}}$

$\text{Fuel used by 1st auto}=\frac{\text{ 600 miles}}{\text{ 20 miles}}\times \text{gallon}$

$\text{Fuel used by 1st auto}=30 \text{ gallons}$

$\text{Fuel used by 2nd auto}=\frac{\text{ 600 miles}}{\frac{\text{ 30 miles}}{\text{gallon}}}$

$\text{Fuel used by 2nd auto}=\frac{\text{ 600 miles}}{\text{ 30 miles}}\times \text{gallon}$

$\text{Fuel used by 2nd auto}=20 \text{ gallons}$

Let us find the difference of fuel used by both autos.

$\text{Number of gallons that 2nd auto used less than 1st auto}=30-20$

$\text{Number of gallons that 2nd auto used less than 1st auto}=10$

Since one gallon of automobile fuel produces about 5 pounds of carbon, so 10 gallons of fuel will produces $5\times 10=50$ pounds of carbon.

Since 2nd auto used 10 gallons less than 1st auto, therefore, 2nd auto will produce 50 pounds less carbon than 1st auto.

Micayla wants the print shop to reduce the size of her painting but keep the ratio of length to width so that it will fit her fr

marissa [1.9K]

Answer:

The width of the frame must be 12 inches (15in by 12in)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

See attachment for painting and frame

Required

Determine the dimension of the frame

To do this, we make use of the following scale ratio.

$Scale = Length : Width$

For the painting,

$Scale = 20: 16$

For the frame,

$Scale = 15: w$

Since she wants to maintain the same ratio; both scale must be the same.

i.e.

$15 : w = 20 : 16$

Express as fraction

$\frac{w}{15} = \frac{16}{20}$

$\frac{w}{15} = 0.8$

Make w the subject

$w = 15 * 0.8$

$w = 12$

<em>The width of the frame must be 12 inches i.e. 15in by 12in frame</em>

A typist can type 4800 words per hour. How many words can she type in 1 minute?

Colt1911 [192]

Answer: 80

1 hour= 60mins

So to know how many words can she type in 1 min, we do the math "4800 : 60"
