Answer:

About $2.85 per gallon

Step-by-step explanation:

We can set up a proportion $\frac{45.3}{15.9}$ = $\frac{x}{1}$ we can then cross multiply, getting 15.9x=45.3. When you divide you get about $2.85

If m∠a=47°, what is m∠b, m∠c, and m∠d? Explain how you know the measures are correct.

avanturin [10]

m ∠b = 133°, m ∠c = 47°, and m ∠d = 133°.

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Follow the attached picture. I sincerely hope that's precisely a correct illustration.

We will use a graph of two intersecting straight lines.

Note that m ∠a and m ∠c are vertical angles. Since vertical angles share the same measures, in other words always congruent, we see $\boxed{ \ m \ \angle{c} = m \ \angle{a} \ } \rightarrow \boxed{\boxed{ \ m \ \angle{c} = 47^0 \ }}$

We continue to determine m ∠b and m ∠d.

Note that m ∠b and m ∠d represent supplementary angles. Recall that supplementary angles add up to 180°.

Let us see the following steps.

$\boxed{ \ m \ \angle{a} + m \ \angle{b} = 180^0. \ }$

$\boxed{ \ m \ 47^0 + m \ \angle{b} = 180^0. \ }$

Both sides subtracted by 47°.

$\boxed{ \ m \ \angle{b} = 180^0 - 47^0. \ }$

Thus $\boxed{\boxed{ \ m \ \angle{b} = 133^0. \ }}$

Finally, note that m ∠b and m ∠d are vertical angles. Accordingly, $\boxed{ \ m \ \angle{d} = m \ \angle{b} \ } \rightarrow \boxed{\boxed{ \ m \ \angle{d} = 133^0 \ }}$

<u>Conclusion:</u>

m ∠a = 47°
m ∠b = 133°
m ∠c = 47°
m ∠d = 133°

<u>Notes:</u>

Supplementary angles are two angles when they add up to 180°. $\boxed{ \ example: \angle{a} + \angle{b} = 180^0 \ }$
Vertical angles are the angles opposite each other when two lines cross. Note that vertical angles are always congruent, or of equal measure. $\boxed{ \ example: \angle{a} = \angle{c} \ }$

Spencer, Jaclyn, and Ayden go shrimping in

larisa [96]

The total pounds of shrimp they catch is 9.625 pounds

<h3>Sum of values and decimals</h3>

Decimal number are numbers that has decimal points. Given the following information;

The total shrimp Spencer catch = 2 pounds

The total shrimp Jaclyn catch = 3.25 pounds

The total shrimp Ayden catch = 4.375 pounds

Determine the total pounds of shrimp they catch

Total shrimp = 2 + 3.25 + 4.375

Total shrimp = 9.625 pounds

Hence the total pounds of shrimp they catch is 9.625 pounds

You are hiring a limousine. One company charges a $60 reservation fee plus another $15 per hour. A second company charges a $25

anzhelika [568]

Answer:

7 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one:

given data

let the total charges be y and the number of hours be x

Company A charges

$60 reservation fee plus another $15 per hour.

y=60+15x----------1

Company B charges

$25 reservation fee plus another $20 per hour

y=25+20x------------2

Step two:

equate the 2 expressions above we have

60+15x=25+20x

collect like terms

60-25=20x-15x

35=5x

divide both sides by 5

x= 35/5

x= 7 hours
