Answer: the efficiency of the first car is 25 miles per gallon.
the efficiency of the second car is 30 miles per gallon.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the efficiency of the first car.
Let y represent the efficiency of the second car.
Distance = car efficiency × number of gallons.
The first car consume 25 gallons of gas and the second consumed 15 gallons of gas. The two cars Drove a combined total of 1075 miles. It means that
25x + 15y = 1075- - - - - - - - - - -1
The sum of the fuel efficiencies was 55 miles per gallon. It means that
x + y = 55
Substituting x = 55 - y into equation 1, it becomes
25(55 - y) + 15y = 1075
1375 - 25y + 15y = 1075
- 25y + 15y = 1075 - 1375
- 10y = - 300
y = - 300/-10
y = 30
x = 55 - y = 55 - 30
x = 25
Step-by-step explanation:Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.
4−(2y−1)=2(5y+9)+y
4+−1(2y−1)=2(5y+9)+y(Distribute the Negative Sign)
4+−1(2y)+(−1)(−1)=2(5y+9)+y
4+−2y+1=2(5y+9)+y
4+−2y+1=(2)(5y)+(2)(9)+y(Distribute)
4+−2y+1=10y+18+y
(−2y)+(4+1)=(10y+y)+(18)(Combine Like Terms)
−2y+5=11y+18
−2y+5=11y+18
Step 2: Subtract 11y from both sides.
−2y+5−11y=11y+18−11y
−13y+5=18
Step 3: Subtract 5 from both sides.
−13y+5−5=18−5
−13y=13
Step 4: Divide both sides by -13.
−13y
−13
=
13
−13
y=−1
Answer: y =-1
The expression can be solved by expanding the bracket and multiplying out the terms
Therefore, the expression can be simplified as;
Alternatively, using the theorem of difference of two squares, which is
Hence,
767,074 rounded to the nearest hundred thousand is 800,000.
24 times as it takes 8 times to fill 1 Litre so 8x3 = 24
