Answer:

22.67 containers.

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of cars washed is the average by the total hours worked:

C_{total}=\bar xt,\bar x=8.5,t=8\\\\C_{total}=8.5\times 8=68

Given that each car uses 1/3 tin of wax, the total containers is calculated as:

Containers=\bar x_c n,n=68,\bar x_c=\frac{1}{3}\\\\=\frac{1}{3}\times 68\\\\=22.67

Hence, the car wash uses 22.67 containers of wax per day.

<span>Shortest side = x, Longest Side = 4x-1, third side = 18 Equation is x + (4x-1) + 18 = 42 so 5x-1 = 42-18=24 and 5x=25 so x = 5, longest side = 4(5)-1=19, third side=18 Add all 3 (5+19+18) to get 42</span>

x-y=12

y=2x-3

x-(2x-3)=12

x-2x+3=12

-x=12-3

-x=9

x=-9

y=2(-9)-3=-18-3=-21
