1/4 an hour is 60 divided by 4 times 1 which is 15 minutes.
3/5 an hour is 60 divided by 5 times 3 which is 36 minutes.
15 plus 36 equals 51 minutes which is less than 1 hour.

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.

A rectangular carpet has a perimeter of 194 inches. The length of the carpet is 67 inches more than the width. What are the dime

sammy [17]

Answer:

The dimensions of the carpet are 15 inches and 82 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Assume that the width of the carpet is x inches

∵ The width of the carpet is x inches

∵ The length of the carpet is 67 inches more than the width

∴ The length of the carpet is (x + 67) inches

∵ The perimeter of the rectangle = 2(length + width)

∵ The perimeter of the carpet = 194 inches

→ Equate the two right sides of the perimeter

∴ 2(length + width) = 194

→ Divide both sides by 2

∴ length + width = 97

→ Substitute the value of the length and width in the equation above

∵ x + 67 + x = 97

→ Add the like terms in the left side

∴ (x + x) + 67 = 97

∴ 2x + 67 = 97

→ Subtract 67 from both sides

∵ 2x + 67 - 67 = 97 - 67

∴ 2x = 30

→ Divide both sides by 2

∴ x = 15

∵ x represents the width of the carpet

∴ The width of the carpet is 15 inches

∵ The length of the carpet = 15 + 67

∴ The length of the carpet is 82 inches

∴ The dimensions of the carpet are 15 inches and 82 inches
