Answer:

The difference in the cost of filling your tank between the two grades of gasoline is $2.28.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Our car has a 15-gallon gas tank. A lower grade of gasoline costs $2.96 per gallon. The premium grade gasoline costs $3.15 per gallon. There are three gallons left in your gas tank.

To find : What is the difference in the cost of filling your tank between the two grades of gasoline?

Solution :

The gas tank is of 15 gallons

There are three gallons left in the gas tank.

The tank has to be filled with 15 - 3 = 12 gallons

A lower grade of gasoline costs $2.96 per gallon.

So, the cost of filling the tank with the lower grade gasoline is

C_1=12\times 2.96

C_1=\$35.52

A upper grade of gasoline costs $3.15 per gallon.

So, the cost of filling the tank with the lower grade gasoline is

C_2=12\times 3.15

C_2=\$37.8

The difference in the cost of filling your tank between the two grades is

C= $37.80 - $35.52

C= $2.28

Therefore, the difference in the cost of filling your tank between the two grades of gasoline is $2.28.

2x(3+4a)=-16x+6x<br> Solve please
IRINA_888 [86]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplifying

2x(3 + 4a) = -16x + 6x

(3 * 2x + 4a * 2x) = -16x + 6x

Reorder the terms:

(8ax + 6x) = -16x + 6x

(8ax + 6x) = -16x + 6x

Combine like terms: -16x + 6x = -10x

8ax + 6x = -10x

Solving

8ax + 6x = -10x

Solving for variable 'a'.

Move all terms containing a to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-6x' to each side of the equation.

8ax + 6x + -6x = -10x + -6x

Combine like terms: 6x + -6x = 0

8ax + 0 = -10x + -6x

8ax = -10x + -6x

Combine like terms: -10x + -6x = -16x

8ax = -16x

Divide each side by '8x'.

a = -2

Simplifying

a = -2 <— answer

8_murik_8 [283]

Answer:

No

Step-by-step explanation:

We have:

n = 80,

p = 0.1  (10%)

q = 1 - p = 1 - 0.1 = 0.9

Usually we use

np > 5, and nq > 5, but this question is using

np > 10, so we'll use that.  It means that the proportion times the sample size must be greater than 10, we have

80(0.1) = 8 and

80(0.9) = 72,

since we got 8 as one answer, the situation doesn't hold up.
