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.

Natali [406]

Answer:

b. $342

Step-by-step explanation:

Base = Length * width

Base Area = 12 * 5

B = 180 square inches.

Perimeter of the prism will be :

P = 2 (length) + 2 (15)

P = 2 * 12 + 30

P = 54 inches

Height of the jewelry container will be :

X = Ph + 2B

X = 54 * 6 + 2 * 180

X = 684 square inches.

Total cost for paint of jewelry box is :

X * cost per inch

Total cost = 682 * $0.50

Total Cost = $342.

Juan is making t-shirts to sell at a concert.
o-na [289]

Answer:

7 shirts

Step-by-step explanation:

The function for producing shirts is

f($) = 50 + 7.5(x), where x is the number of shirt

The function for selling shirts is

f($) = 15(x)

For there to be a profit, he must make more money selling the shirts than he spent on making the shirts

Therefore, 15(x) > 50 + 7.5(x)

15x > 50 + 7.5x

15x - 7.5x > 50

7.5x > 50

x > 6.67 shirts

To make a profit, Juan must sell at least 7 shirts
