You are planning a trip that will take you 821 miles from home. your car gets 24 miles per gallon, and the average price of gas

Blizzard [7]

The answer:

the total distance of the trip is 821 miles from home,
for this the car <span>gets 24 miles per gallon
</span>the average price of gas is $3.74 per gallon
the price can be calculated as:
for the trip,
24 miles-------------1 gallon
821 miles------------ x= 821/24=34.20 gallons

1 gallon------------- $3.74
34.20 gallons---------x=?

to find this value

34.20 gallons x $3.74 = $127.93.

The difference of two numbers is 16 the greater number is five less than four times a small number find the two numbers

Elis [28]

Answer:

The numbers are 23 and 7

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Set up the equations

Let x = the greater number

and y = the smaller number. Then

(1) x - y = 16

4y = 4 times the smaller number and

4y - 5 = 5 less than 4 times the smaller number. Then

(2) x = 4y - 5

You have a system of two equations:

$\begin{cases}(1) & x - y = 16\\(2) & x = 4y - 5\end{cases}$

2. Solve the equations

$\begin{array}{lrcll}(3) & 4y - 5 - y & = & 16 &\text{Substituted (2) into (1)}\\& 3y - 5 & = & 16 &\text{Simplified}\\ & 3y & = & 21 &\text{Added 5 to each side}\\(4) &y & = & \mathbf{7} &\text{Divided each side by 3} \\& x - 7 & = & 16 & \text{Substituted (4) into (1)}\\& x& = & \mathbf{23} & \text{Added 7 to each side}\\\end{array}$

The larger number is 23; the smaller number is 7.

3. Check

$\begin{array}{rclcrcl}23 - 7& = & 16 & \qquad &23&=&4(7) - 5\\16 & = & 16 & \qquad &23& = &28 - 5\\&&& \qquad &23& = &23\\\end{array}$

OK.

Zahra compares two wireless data plans. Which equation gives the correct value of n, the number of GB, for which Plans A and B c

Elden [556K]

The equation which gives the correct value of n, the number of GB, for which Plans A and B cost the same is 8n = 20 + 6(n-2)

To determine which equation gives the correct value of n, the number of GB, for which Plans A and B cost the same, we will first solve the equations.

For the first equation

8n = 20 + 6n

Collect like terms

8n - 6n = 20

2n = 20

Then, n = 20 ÷ 2

n = 10 GB

For Plan A

No initial fee and $8 for each GB

Here, 10GB will cost 10 × $8 = $80

For Plan B

$20 for the first 2GB and $6 for each additional GB after the first 2

Here, 10GB will cost $20 + (8 × $6) = $20 + $48 = $68

∴ Plans A and B do not cost the same here.

For the second equation

8n = 20(2n) + 6

First, clear the bracket

8n = 40n + 6

Now, collect like terms

40n - 8n = 6

42n = 6

∴ n = 6 ÷ 42

n = 1/7 GB

For Plan A

No initial fee and $8 for each GB

Here, 1/7GB will cost 1/7 × $8 = $1.14

For Plan B

$20 for the first 2GB and $6 for each additional GB after the first 2

Here, 1/7GB will cost $20 (Since the lowest cost is $20)

∴ Plans A and B do not cost the same here.

For the third equation

8n = 20 + 6(n-2)

First, clear the brackets

8n = 20 + 6n - 12

Now, collect like terms

8n - 6n = 20 - 12

2n = 8

n = 8 ÷ 2

n = 4 GB

For Plan A

No initial fee and $8 for each GB

Here, 4GB will cost 4× $8 = $32

For Plan B

$20 for the first 2GB and $6 for each additional GB after the first 2

Here, 4GB will cost $20 + (2 × $6) = $20 + $12 = $32

Plans A and B do not cost the same here.

∴ Plans A and B do cost the same here

For the fourth equation

8n = 20 + 2n + 6

Collect like terms

8n - 2n = 20 + 6

6n = 26

n = $\frac{26}{6}$

n = $\frac{13}{3}$ GB or $4\frac{1}{3}$ GB

For Plan A

No initial fee and $8 for each GB

Here, $\frac{13}{3}$ GB will cost $\frac{13}{3}$ × $8 = $34.67

For Plan B

$20 for the first 2GB and $6 for each additional GB after the first 2

Here, $4\frac{1}{3}$ GB will cost $20 + ( $2\frac{1}{3}$ × $6) = $20 + $14 = $34

∴ Plans A and B do not cost the same here.

Hence, the equation which gives the correct value of n, the number of GB, for which Plans A and B cost the same is 8n = 20 + 6(n-2)

The total number of points scored by each player throughout a season are listed on a roster by the player's jersey number. is th

Roman55 [17]

Yes, this would be a function.

Using ordered pairs to represent this, we would have (jersey #, points). A relation is a function if no element of the domain matches more than one element of the range; in our case, the domain is the jersey number and the range is the number of points.

The jersey number will not match two numbers of points throughout the season; a player will only have one total number of points throughout the season. Therefore no element of the domain matches more than one element of the range, and this is a function.
