Answer:

$45.22

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of miles per gallon can be represented by the ratio:

\frac{miles}{gallon}=\frac{26}{1}

Since we know the unit rate of 26 miles per gallon of gas, we can set up a proportion, or equivalent ratios, to find the number of gallons needed for 420 miles:

\frac{26}{1}=\frac{420}{x}, where 'x' is the number of gallons of gas

cross-multiply and divide:  26x = 420 or x ≈ 16.15 gallons

If gas is $2.80 per gallon, take the total number of gallons needed and multiply by $2.80:

16.15 x $2.80 = $45.22

A toy company spends $20 for every doll it makes. Promotion of the dolls costs $400 and the company sells each doll for $30. How
marissa [1.9K]

Since the company spends 20$ on each doll and sells each for 30$ thats a 10$ profit.

If the company spends 400$ on promotion it would take 40 dolls since

400$ / 10$(amount of profit per doll) = 40

so to make the promotion back it would be 40 dolls but the question was to make PROFIT so it must be 41 dolls

Which of the following equations is not a linear equation?
salantis [7]

D.

Step-by-step explanation:

All other equations have x or y to the power of one so they are linear. D. has x or y to the power of two, so it's not linear. Quadratics and any variable to the power of 2 and above is not linear (numbers on their own are also always linear, so ignore any powers on them)

Explain the reliability with suitable examples.
ryzh [129]
The term reliability in psychological research refers to the consistency of a research study or measuring test. For example, if a person weighs themselves during the course of a day they would expect to see a similar reading. Scales which measured weight differently each time would be of little use.
