Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Therefore, the volume of the water in the tank 25 minutes after Baxter begins filling the tank is 255 gallons.

Step-by-step explanation:

Linear Equation; Ax+By=C

A linear equation to model this situation:

8x + 55 = C

Where;

8 is for the rate of gallons.

'X' is the minutes.

55 is the gallons of water the tank already contained.

8(25) + 55 = 255

Where;

8 is for the rate of gallons.

25 is the minutes.

55 is the gallons of water the tank already contained.

If y varies directly as x, and y is 400 when x is randy is r when x is 4, what is the numeric constant of variation in this rela
juin [17]

The numeric constant of variation is 100

Step-by-step explanation:

Direct proportion means that increase in one variable cause increase in other variable

Here,

It is given that

y varies directly as x

y∝x

when the proportionality symbol is removed a proportionality constant is introduced

y = kx

Given that

y = 100 when x = 4

Putting the values

400 = k * 4\\k = \frac{400}{4}\\k = 100

The numeric constant of variation is 100

Tia’s car needs repairs. Honest Harry will charge $70 per hour plus $130 for the part. Lucky Lou will charge $80 per hour plus $
elena-s [515]
To answer the question above, let x the number of hours for the two jobs to cost equal. Harry's charge can be expressed as 70x + 130 and that of Lou is 80x + 40. Equating both, 
  
                               70x + 130 = 80x + 40      ; x = 9

Thus, the job should take 9 hours for both charges to be equal.

Your housing and fixed expenses are $702.38/month. What is your realized income for the month if your expenses account 30%
Ksenya-84 [330]
We are asked to solve for the monthly income given that 30% of it goes to your expenses.
Expenses per month = $702.38
Expenses percent from income = 30% = 0.3
Total income per month  = X

The solution is shown below:
$702.38 = 30% * X
X = $702.38 / 0.3
X = $2,341.27

The total income is $2,341.27.
