Answer: The answer is a decimal.
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
180 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
Step one:
capacity of tank= 18.5gallons
vehicle averages 666 miles per tank.
Hence, the vehicle can travel 666 miles on 18.5 gallons
Required
The distance covered on 5 gallons
Step two:
vehicle can travel 666 miles on 18.5 gallons
the vehicle will go x miles on 5 gallons
cross multiply we have
5*666= 18.5*x
3330=18.5x
divide both sides by 18.5
x= 3330/18.5
x=180 miles
Answer:
0.92
Step-by-step explanation:
<em>X = 2 cm</em>
Volume = Bh= 8×5×1/2×X= 80
X = 80/20 = 4
Answer: One plain roll is 4 dollars and one shiny roll is 6 dollars.
Step-by-step explanation:
lets start by saying
rolls of plain wrapping paper = x
rolls of shiny wrapping paper = y
Kathryn sold 4 plain rolls and 3 shiny rolls for 34 dollars.
4x+3y=34
Eugene sold 4 plain rolls and 2 shiny rolls for 28 dollars
4x+2y=28
Both equations will look like this.
4x+3y=34
-1(4x+2y)=(28)-1
we can multiply the second equation by -1 to get y alone. (doesn't matter which equation). Once you do that, the positive 4x and the negative 4x cancel out, 3y-2y=1y and 34-28=6. you are left with
1y=6 so one shiny roll is 6 dollars.
now use that price to find the cost of the plain roll.
lets use Kathryn's equation
4x + 3(6)=34
4x + 18= 34
-18 -18
4x=16. Divide by 4 to find cost of one plain roll.
16÷4=4. One plain roll costs 4 dollars.
Lets check. Using Kathryn's equation,
4(4) + 3(6)=34
16+18=34
34=34. We are right.
