Answer:
She was driving for 5 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
Let us solve the question
∵ Kate begins with 16 gallons of gas in her car
∵ Her car burns 3 gallons of gas each hour
→ That means the rate of burn of the gas is 3 gallons per hour
∵ She ends her road trip with 1 gallon of gas left in the tank
→ That means she used the difference between 16 and 1 gallons
∴ The number of gallons she used = 16 - 1 = 15 gallons
→ By using the ratio method
→ Gallon : hour
→ 3 : 1
→ 15 : x
→ By using cross multiplication
∵ 3 × x = 15 × 1
∴ 3x = 15
→ Divide both sides by 3
∴ x = 5
∵ x represents the number of hours of her trip
∴ She was driving for 5 hours

Step-by-step explanation:
Zip codes with 5 digits (all five digits can be repeated): 10^5=100,000 if first digit is 0, its no longer 5-digit right? Zip codes with no digit being repeated: 10*9*8*7*6=30,240 if first digit is 0, its no longer 5-digit right? Zip codes with at least one digit being repeated: 90000-27216 = 62784 ?N
Since there is a variable, there are infinitely many solutions.
Answer:
y = 0.10x + 8, $12
Step-by-step explanation:
y = monthly bill
x = number of message units
Each message unit costs $0.10, so the cost of x message units is 0.10x. The phone adds $8 to the monthly bill. Therefore:
y = 0.10x + 8
If x = 40, then:
y = 0.10 (40) + 8
y = 4 + 8
y = 12
The monthly bill is $12.
