<em><u>Question:</u></em>
<em>Mrs. Magdalino kept records on how much she spent on gasoline and the maintenance of her car.  She found that it cost $485 to drive 500 mi in a month.</em>
<em>a)  Find the cost per mile.  Write an equation that relates the cost c for gasoline and maintenance of a car to the number of miles m the car is driven.</em>
<em>b)  Use the equation to find the cost for driving 1200 miles.</em>
<em>c)  About how many miles are driven for a cost of $820?</em>

<em><u>Answer:</u></em>
a)
$485/500mi = <u><em>$0.97/mi</em></u>

c = cost
m = miles driven

cost per miles driven = cost / mile driven = <u><em>c/m</em></u>

b)
(1200 mi)*($0.97/mi) = <u><em>$1164</em></u>

c)
(x miles)*($0.97/mi) = $820

*divide both sides by $0.97/mi

x miles = $820/($0.97/mi)

<u><em>x = 845.36 miles</em></u>

Weather forecasters use a barometer to measure
Zepler [3.9K]

Answer:  air pressure

Whenever you hear things like "high pressure" or "low pressure" on weather reports, they measured the pressure using a barometer. Knowing the air pressure helps determine if there is a higher chance of rain or storms for instance.

Typically but not always, high pressure correlates to sunny days and dry weather. Low pressure often brings about rain. This is of course a very oversimplified viewpoint.

For each gym membership sold, the gym keeps $42 and the employee who sold it gets $8. What is the commission the employee earned
horrorfan [7]

Answer:

Commission of the employee = 16%

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that:

Amount kept by gym = $42

Amount given to employee = $8

Total fee = 42 + 8 = $50

Commission rate = \frac{Commission}{Total\ fee}*100

Commission rate = \frac{8}{50}*100

Commission rate = 0.16 * 100 = 16%

Therefore,

Commission of the employee = 16%

What is the area of the following figure?
Snowcat [4.5K]

Answer:

16.56‬

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of the square is 2 × 2

The area of the circle is-

A=πr²

A=3.14 × 2²

A=3.14 × 4

A=12.56

You don't need to divide it by half because there are two half circles so it would be a whole circle

12.56 + 4 = 16.56

Sorry if it is wrong

When David was asked how old he was, he said " I'm three times younger than my dad, but twice as old as Rebecca. " Then little R
daser333 [38]

Using a system of equations, it is found that David is 12 years old.

<h3>What is a system of equations?</h3>

A system of equations is when two or more variables are related, and equations are built to find the values of each variable.

The variables are given as follows:

  • Variable x: David's age.
  • Variable y: Dad's age.
  • Variable z: Rebecca's age.

David is three times younger than the dad and twice as old as Rebecca, then:

  • x = y/3 -> y = 3x.
  • x = 2z.

Rebecca is 30 years younger than the dad, hence:

z = y - 30.

Then, since x = 2z and z = y - 30 and y = 3x, we solve for x to find David's age.

x = 2(y - 30)

x = 2(3x - 30)

x = 6x - 60

5x = 60

x = 60/5

x = 12.

David is 12 years old.
