Answer:
Car 1 : 40 miles per gallon
Car 2: 25 miles per gallon
Step-by-step explanation:
family has two cars. During one particular week, the first car consumed 15 gallons of gas. The second car consumed 25 gallons of gas. The two cars Drove a combined total of 1475 miles and the sum of their fuel efficiency was 65 miles per gallon. What were the fuel efficiency of each of the cars that week
Given that :
Fuel efficiency , car 1 = x
Fuel efficiency , car 2 = y
x + y = 65 - - (1)
15x + 35y = 1475 - - - (2)
x = 65 - y
15(65-y) + 35y
975 - 15y + 35y = 1475
20y = 14875 - 975
20y = 500
y = 25
Put y = 25 in (1)
x + y = 65
x + 25 = 65
x = 65 - 25
x = 40
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
When two lines are crossed by another line (transversal), the angles in matching corners are called Corresponding Angles.
When the line are parallel the corresponding angles are equal in measurement.
so
In this problem
-----> by corresponding angles
see the attached figure to better understand the problem
Solve for x
Subtract 50 both sides


Divide by 8 both sides


That would be 5/913. As a percent, that would be 0.5%.
