Mathematics
1 answer:
antoniya [11.8K]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

y = -2x + 20

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the linear equation, y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y intercept.

In this situation, the y intercept is 20, since the starting amount of gasoline is 20 gallons.

The slope will be -2, since 2 gallons are drained per minute.

Plug in these values:

y = mx + b

y = -2x + 20

So, the linear equation is y = -2x + 20

By selling an article for $250, a man makes a profit of 25%. what was the cost price of the article.
pashok25 [27]

Answer:

200 dollars

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's say p equals the cost price of the article. Since the man made 25% profit, that means he got 100% of what he originally paid plus another 25% of what he originally paid. In other words, he sold the article for 125% of the original price. Converting that to a decimal we get:

250=p*1.25

Some simple division gets us a cost price of 200 dollars.
