Answer:
it will take 3 5/8 of gas to fill the tank
Step-by-step explanation:
14 1/2 - 10 7/8 can be re-written using improper fractions
29/2 - 87/8 We need a common denominator, which is 8
116/8 - 87/8 = 29/8 = 3 5/8 gal
We have $8.50 an hour gross minus $2.15 an hour tax and bennys. Then $3.75 daily expense. In one week our net take-away y after x hours is
y = x(8.50 - 2.15) - 5(3.75)
That's the answer, or we can simplify it to
Answer: y = 6.35 x - 18.75
Answer: The slope, 6.35, is the net dollars per hour <em>before weekly expenses.</em>
Answer: The y intercept, -18.75, is the weekly expense, negative because it's an expense.
To make $120 in a week, we solve for x where y=120
120 = 6.35x - 18.75
138.75 = 6.35 x
x = 138.75 / 6.35 = 21.8503937007874
That wasn't the nice round number I was expecting/hoping for. I don't see a mistake so let's go with
Answer: 21.85 hours to make $120

Answer:
y =
x + 7
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
x = 3t ( divide both sides by 3 )
x = t
Substitute this value into y = 2t + 7
y = 2 ×
x + 7 =
x + 7
