Answer: 278.30 pounds (if the gasoline does not contain ethanol)

317.12 pounds (if the gasoline does contain ethanol)

Step-by-step explanation:

If the truck averages 12 miles per gallon, then in 170 miles it consumes:

170mi/12mi = 14.17 gallons.

We know that for one gallon consumed, the carbon dioxide emitted into the atmosphere is 19.64 pounds. (assuming it does not contain ethanol)

Then for 14.17 gallons consumed, we have a emission of:

14.17*19.64 pounds = 278.30 pounds

I the gasoline contains ethanlol, for a gallon the emiision is around  22.38 pounds.

In this case the total emission is:

14.17*22.38 pounds = 317.12 pounds

The snowboard Hannah wanted originally cost $109.It had been marked down 10% and then another 12%. A tax of 6% was added to the
lara [203]

Take 10% of the snowboard price.

10% = 0.1

109 * 0.1 = $10.90 (10% discount)

109 - 10.9 = $98.10 (Price with discount).

Take 12% of the new snowboard price.

12% = 0.12

98.1 * 0.12 = 11.772 (Round to 11.77)

98.10 - 11.77 = $86.33 (Final discounted price)

Take 6% tax on the new snowboard price.

6% = 0.06

86.33 * 0.06 = 5.1798 (Round to 5.18)

86.33 + 5.18 = $91.51

______

After solving Hannah doesn't have enough money to buy the snowboard.

______
