A truck driver can travel 560 miles on 28 gallons of gas. How far can he travel on 35 gallons of gas?

560 / 28 = 20....so the driver travels 20 miles per gallon

on 35 gallons......35 * 20 = 700 miles <==

or u can also do it this way...

560/28 = x / 35....560 miles to 28 gal = x miles to 35 gal
cross multiply because this is a proportion
(28)(x) = (560)(35)
28x = 19600
x = 19600/28
x = 700 miles <==

so u can either do it by finding the unit rate or by making a proportion. either way will result in the same answer.

-3 +3(n+8)= 2(1 + 6n) - 8
lilavasa [31]

Answer:

3 =n

Step-by-step explanation:

-3 +3(n+8)= 2(1 + 6n) - 8

Distribute

-3 +3n +24 = 2 +12n -8

Combine like terms

21+3n = 12n -6

Subtract 3n from each side

21+3n-3n = 12n-3n -6

21 = 9n -6

Add 6 to each side

21+6 = 9n-6+6

27 = 9n

Divide each side by 9

27/9 = 9n/9

27/9 =n

Divide the top and bottom by 3

3 =n

The measure of the angle ∠PQR is 90 degrees

<h3>How to prove that ∠PQR is 90 degrees?</h3>

The equation of the line PQ is given as:

3x - y - 2 = 0

The coordinates of the QR are given as:

(0, -2) and (6, -4)

Make y the subject in 3x - y - 2 = 0

y = 3x - 2

The slope of the above line is

m1 = 3

Next, we calculate the slope (m2) of points Q and R.

So, we have:

m2 = (y2- y1)/(x2 - x1)

This gives

m2 = (-4 + 2)/(6 - 0)

Evaluate

m2 = -1/3

The slopes of perpendicular lines are opposite reciprocals.

m1 = 3 and m2 = -1/3 are opposite reciprocals.

This means the lines PQ and QR are perpendicular lines.

The angle at the point of perpendicularity is 90 degrees

Hence, the measure of the angle ∠PQR is 90 degrees

What is the Gradient and y axis of 5x-2y=10
VikaD [51]

Convert to slope-intercept form.

5x - 2y = 10

2y = 5x - 10

y = (5/2)x - 5

So the slope is 5/2 and y-intercept is at (0, -5).
