Answer:

<em>Josh would need to purchase 20 gallons of gas for the cost to be the same at each car wash</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to model both car wash's costs. The Quik-Clean Car Wash charges $15 for a car wash plus $2.50 per gallon for unleaded gasoline. If x is the number of gallons of unleaded gasoline. the total charges of this store are:

C1=15+2.5*x

The Mighty Clean Car Wash charges $10 for a carwash plus $2.75 per gallon for unleaded gasoline. Following the same procedure, their costs are:

C2=10+2.75*x

Josh wants to know how many gallons of gas will make both businesses charge the same. Equating both equations:

15+2.5*x=10+2.75*x

Simplifying:

-0.25x=-5

Solving:

x=-5/(-0.25)=20

Josh would need to purchase 20 gallons of gas for the cost to be the same at each car wash

Rearrange the equation A = xy to solve for x.
mote1985 [20]
X = A/y
You divide the y from both sides
The y on the right cancels
On the left you have A/y = x

Use the information to answer the following question.
Zanzabum

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the difference between 0 and -10 is 10, this means that the difference between the diving board and the pool also has to be 10. Therefore, the diving board is 10 feet above the water since 0+10 is 10.

Simplify 4/7 + 5/6 whoever possible
Pani-rosa [81]

Hey there!

4/7 + 5/6

≈ 24/42 + 35/42

≈ 24 + 36/ 42 - 0

≈ 59/42

≈ 1 17/42



Therefore, your answer is:

59/42 or 1 17/42

EITHER OF THOSE SHOULD WORK BECAUSE THEY ARE EQUIVALENT.


Good luck on your assignment & enjoy your day!

The mean of 10 values is 19. If further 5 values are
Leokris [45]

Answer:

22

Step-by-step explanation:

Pretend the 10 values in the first sentence are a,b,c,d,e,f,g,h,i,j

Pretend the addition 5 values is k,l,m,n,o

So the mean of all the 15 data is (a+b+c+d+e+f+g+h+i+j+k+l+m+n+o)/15=20

So the sum of all 15 data is  a+b+c+d+e+f+g+h+i+j+k+l+m+n+o=300                since 15(20)=300

Now let's look at the first 10:  We have their mean so we can write:

(a+b+c+d+e+f+g+h+i+j)/10=19

so a+b+c+d+e+f+g+h+i+j=190                               since 10(19)=190

So that means using our first sum equation and our equation sum equation we have

190+k+l+m+n+o=300

      k+l+m+n+o=300-190

      k+l+m+n+o= 110

So the average of those 5 numbers mentioned in your problem is 110/5=22
