Answer:

216 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's set up a proportion using the following setup.

miles/gallons=miles/gallons

We know the car can travel 156 miles on 13 gallons. We don't know how many miles the car can travel on 18 gallons, so we can say the car can travel x miles on 18 gallons.

156 miles/13 gallons=x miles/18 gallons

156/13=x/18

We want to find out what x is. Therefore, we have to get x by itself. x is being divided by 18. The inverse of division is multiplication, so we can multiply both sides by 18.

18*156/13=x/18*18

18*156/13=x

18*12=x

216=x

x=216 miles

The car can travel 216 miles on 18 gallons of gas.

If 2/3=x/12 , what is the value of x?
Andru [333]
2/3=x/12
Use cross multiply
2*12=3*x
24=3x
Divided both side by 3
24/3=3x/3
x=8
Check:
2/3=x/12
Substitute x with 8
2/3=8/12
2/3=(8/4)/(12/4)
2/3=2/3. As a result, x=8. Hope it help!

Kim took out a $55,000 loan for college. She is borrowing money from two banks. Bank A charges an interest rate of 8%, and Bank
stellarik [79]
Kim's Loan:
Let A =  amount borrowed from bank A.
Let B =  amount borrowed from bank B.

The total loan is $55,000.
Therefore
A + B = 55000                  (1)

Bank A charges 8% interest. The interest after 1 year is 0.08A.
Bank B charges 11% interest. The interest after 1 year is 0.11B.
Total interest after 1 year is $5,000.
Therefore
0.08A + 0.11B = 5000      (2)

From (1), obtain
B = 55000 - A                  (3)

Substitute (3) into (2).
0.08A + 0.11(55000 - A) = 5000
0.08A + 6050 - 0.11A = 5000
-0.03A = -1050
A = -1050/-0.03 = 35000

Answer:  Kim borrowed $35,000 from bank A.

Jack's Loan.
A = loan from bank A.
B = loan from bank B.
The total loan is $10,000.
Therefore
A + B = 10000                  (4)

Bank A charges 5% interest and bank B charges 6% interest.
Total interest after 1 year is $530, therefore
0.05A + 0.06B = 530       (5)

From (4), obtain
B = 10000 - A                       (6)

Substitute (6) into (5).
0.05A + 0.06(10000 - A) = 530
0.05A + 600 - 0.06A = 530
-0.01A = -70
A = -70/-0.01 = 7000

Answer: Jack borrowed $7,000 from bank A.
