I found the pie chart that should accompany this problem, as well as, the choices of answer for this problem.

A $16
B $18
C $20
D $22
E $24

Total production from crude oil: 60 million barrels
Gasoline production: 34%

60 million barrels * 34% = 20,400,000

Total income: $408 million

408,000,000 / 20,400,000 = $20 choice C.

Answer:

186.5 + 2x

Step-by-step explanation:

First, radify 25. Luckily it's a perfect square so it will be 5.

Second, divide within the parentheses. You're expression should look like this.

(93-5+x+42/8)2

Divide 42/8. The decimal form would be 5.25, while the fraction should be 5 1/4.

Third, solve within the parentheses from left to right. Right now you're expression should look like this:

(93-5+x+5.25)2

Add all like terms

93-5+5.25=93.25

Fourth, multiply. Right now the expression should look like this:

(93.25 + x) 2

186.5 + 2x

How many pounds of mixed nuts that contain 70% peanuts must Shannon add to 15 pounds of mixed peanuts that contain 20% peanuts t

Degger [83]

Answer:

10 pounds.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x pounds be the amount of mixed nuts we require.

Amount of peanuts in this mix = 0.70x pounds. Amount of peanuts in the 20% mix = 0.20*15 = 3 pounds.

So we have the equation:-

0.70 x + 3 = 0.40(x + 15)

0.70x + 3 = 0.40x + 6

0.70x - 0.40x = 6 - 3

0.30x = 3

x = 10.

elise is changing the dimensions of her garden. the length is 20 feet longer than its width. if she decreases this length by 8 f

vitfil [10]

Let x be the initial width, then the initial length is x+20.
If Elise decreases this length by 8 feet, she will get the new length x+20-8=x+12.

If Elise increases the width by 10 feet, she will get the new width x+10.

The new perimeter will be x+12+x+12+x+10+x+10=4x+44=172, 4x=172-44, 4x=128, x=128÷4, x=32.

The initial width is 32 ft and the initial length is 32+20=52 ft.

The new width will be 32+10=42 ft, the new length will be 32+12=44 ft.
