Answer:

It would take 86.4 gallons of gas to go 1,836 miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

the situation can be explained by the equation 16x=340, where x is how many miles the car can go in one gallon. divide both sides by 16 to get that answer

x=340/16= 21.25

Now the other problem can be expressed by the equation 21.25y=1836, where y is the amount of gallons it would take to go 1,836 miles.

divide both sides by 21.25 to get the amount of gallons

y= 1836/ 21.25= 86.4.

zysi [14]

Answer:

a) $520

b) $580

c) Interest amount is same each year

Step-by-step explanation:

Given - Georgie put $500 in her savings account, earning interest at a rate of 4% each year. She did not make any more deposits or withdrawals.

To find - a) How much money was in the account after one year?

              b) How much money was in the account after 4 years?

              c) Was the amount of money earned in interest the same or different each year?

Proof -

Here given that,

Principal amount = $500

rate of interest = 4% = 4/100 = 0.04

Now,

a)

Amount =  P [ 1 + RT ]

             = 500 [ 1 + 0.04(1)]

             = 500 [ 1 + 0.04] = 520

⇒Amount = $520

b)

Amount =  P [ 1 + RT ]

             = 500 [ 1 + 0.04(4)]

             = 500 [ 1 + 0.16] = 580

⇒Amount = $580

c)

In 2nd year,

Amount =  P [ 1 + RT ]

             = 500 [ 1 + 0.04(2)]

             = 500 [ 1 + 0.08] = 540

⇒Amount = $540

Now,

Interest in 1st year = 520 - 500 = 20

Interest in 2nd year = 540 - 520 = 20

So,

The interest amount  is same each year

What is the substitution of -6x-8y=-20 and x+6y=-6
ale4655 [162]

Substitution doesn't work for this, but elimination does.

-6x-8y=-20 +6( x+6y=-6)

-6x-8y=-20 + 6x+36y=-36

-6x and 6x cancel each other, add -8 and 36 to get 28, and -20 and -36 to get -56.

28y=-56

divide by 28 on both sides.

Y= -2

Then substitute y into one of the equations.

x+6(-2)=-6

x-12=-6

x=6

The ordered pair is (6,-2).
