Answer:

66

Step-by-step explanation:

let's use x to represent the unknown number

1/2x is 5 more than 6:

↓

1/2x=5+6

solve to find x

1/2x=11

x=22

next, it asks us what is the value of the number when the number is tripled

since we already found what x is equal to, we can multiply that by 3 to figure out its value when it's tripled

3(22)=66

vfiekz [6]
<span>At a corner gas station, the revenue R varies directly with the number g of gallons of gasoline sold. If the revenue is $44.50 when the number of gallons sold is 10, find a linear equation that relates revenue R to the number g of gallons of gasoline. Then find the revenue R when the number of gallons of gasoline sold is 15.5.

Solution:
As the question mentioned the direct relationship between the quantities, hence 
10 gallons of gasoline sold =  $44.50
15.5 gallons of gasoline sold = $x
by cross multiplication, we get that
10x = 15.5 * 44.50
which implies that
x = 68.975
Thus by $</span>68.975 revenue is obtained by selling 15.5 gallons of gasoline.

Joshua Treet had a $400.00 average monthly expenditure for entertainment during the second quarter of the year. He spent $401.50
irga5000 [103]
First, the formula for the average of a data set must be defined. It is calculated by adding all the numbers in the data set and then dividing the sum by the number of data. In this case, the average is set to be equal to $400 with the total number of data being 3, with the September expenditure set as an unknown, x. The equation is then set-up to be: 400 = (401.5 + 250 + x)/3. Thus, Joshua can spend as much as $ 548.5 to be able to have the same average as in his second quarter expenditure.
