Answer:
The family will pay 34722 cents more if they take the van
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
Van = 12 miles per gallon
Sedan = 36 miles per gallon
Distance = 2500 miles
Gas = $2.50 per gallon
First, we need to determine the number of gallons that'll be used by both vehicles
This is done by dividing total distance by number of miles per gallon
Next, is to multiply this by the cost of gas per gallon;
This gives the total spendable amount on both vehicles
Next is to get the difference between these amounts
Multiply by 100 to convert to cents
(Approximated)
Hence;
<em>The family will pay 34722 cents more if they take the van</em>
x = -38/9 !!!
27(x+4)=−6
Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.
27(x+4)=−6
(27)(x)+(27)(4)=−6 (Distribute)
27x+108=−6
Step 2: Subtract 108 from both sides.
27x+108−108=−6−108
27x=−114
Step 3: Divide both sides by 27.
27x/27=−114/27
x=−389
Answer:
1806 seats.
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question given above, the following data were obtained:
Row 1 = 24 seats
Row 2 = 27 seats
Row 3 = 30 seats
Total roll = 28
Total number of seat =?
From the above data, we can liken the roll to be in arithmetic progress.
Also, we are asked to determine the total number of seats in the theater.
Thus the sum of the sequence can be written as:
Roll 1 + Roll 2 + Roll 3 +... + Roll 28 i.e
24 + 27 + 30 +...
Thus, we can obtain obtained the total number of seats in the theater by applying the sum of arithmetic progress formula. This can be obtained as follow:
First term (a) = 24
Common difference (d) = 2nd term – 1st term
Common difference (d) = 27 – 24 = 3
Number of term (n) = 28
Sum of the 28th term (S₂₈) =?
Sₙ = n/2 [2a + (n –1)d]
S₂₈ = 28/2 [2×24 + (28 –1)3]
S₂₈ = 14 [48 + 27×3]
S₂₈ = 14 [48 + 81]
S₂₈ = 14 [129]
S₂₈ = 1806
Thus, the number of seats in the theater is 1806.
