Answer:
B is empty
Step-by-step explanation:
50 + .4x = 70 + .3x
.4x = .3x + 20
.1x = 20
x = 200
Let x be the number of miles.
They have to drive 200 miles.
Answer:
Miles he drove on highway = 180 miles
Miles he drove in the city = 217 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
Lets assume that gallon used on highway = x
Miles driven on highway = y
(I) 36 miles per gallon on the highway.
36x = y equation 1
(II) 31 miles per gallon in the city.He recently drove 397 miles on 12 gallons of gasoline
31(12-x)= 397-y equation 2
372-31x= 397-y
Combine the constants:
-31x= 397-372-y
y-31x = 25
Now substitute the value of equation 1 in equation 2
y-31x=25
36x-31x=25
5x=25
Now divide both sides by 5
5x/5=25/5
x=5
Now substitute the value x=5 in equation 1
36x=y
36(5)=y
180= y
Now subtract the miles driven on highway from recently drove miles to get the miles driven in the city.
397-y = 389 - 180
= 217
Therefore,
Miles he drove on highway = 180 miles
Miles he drove in the city = 217 miles ....
Answer: $10.50
Step-by-step explanation:
If they were all paid equally and there were three of them and each person got 3.50. All you need to do is times 3.50 by 3 (Maggie plus her 2 friends).
