Answer: 24\ liters

Step-by-step explanation:

Let be "x" the amount of gasoline in liters that the car's tank had at the beginning of the trip.

 1. In the first part of the trip the amount of gasoline the car used can be expressed as:

 \frac{2}{3}x

2. After the first part of the trip, the remaining was:

x-\frac{2}{3}x=\frac{1}{3}x  

3. In the second part of the trip the car used \frac{1}{2} of the remaining. This is:

(\frac{1}{3}x)(\frac{1}{2})=\frac{1}{6}x

4. The total amount ot gasoline used in this trip was 20 liters.

5. Then, with this information, you can write the following equation:

\frac{2}{3}x+\frac{1}{6}x=20

6. Finally, you must solve for "x" in order to find its value. This is:

\frac{2}{3}x+\frac{1}{6}x=20\\\\\frac{5}{6}x=20\\\\5x=120\\\\x=24

A water tank in Stewart's
lara [203]

The change in the volume of water in 1 minute is a decrease of 0.16 milliliters.

Since a water tank in Stewart's home had a small, steady leak loss of 1 3/5 mL in 10 min, to find the change in the volume of water in 1 minute, the following calculation must be performed:

  • The total leak must be calculated and divided by the 10 minutes duration.  
  • 3/5 = 0.6
  • 1 + 0.6 = 1.6
  • 1.6 / 10 = 0.16

Therefore, the change in the volume of water in 1 minute is a decrease of 0.16 milliliters.

Heidi has an average score of 78 for her first six chemistry tests. If Heidi"s scores for the first four tests were 82,78,87, an
elixir [45]

Answer:

(A)74

Explanation:

Let her average score on the last two tests = x.

The six scores will now be: 82,78,87,73, x and x.

Since the average score for her first six chemistry tests = 78

\frac{82+78+87+73+x+x}{6}=78

We then solve for x.

\begin{gathered} 320+2x=78\times6 \\ 320+2x=468 \\ 2x=468-320 \\ 2x=148 \\ x=\frac{148}{2} \\ x=74 \end{gathered}

Her average score for the last two tests is 74.
