Set up a proportion having 120 over 3 = x over 8
cross multiply with 3x = 960
then divide by 3
the answer is 320 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
let v is the speed of the wind,
the equation of the speed:
(550 + v ) × 5 = (550 - v) × 6
2750 +5v = 3300 - 6v
11v = 3300 - 2750
11v = 550
v = 550/11
v = 50
therefore, the speed of the wind =
50 mph
Answer:
7x-5 = 9
x = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the number
7x-5 = 9
Add 5 to each side
7x-5+5 = 9+5
Divide each side by 7
7x = 14
7x/7 = 14/7
x=2
Answer:
15
Since 9 questions is 60% of the exam, you must find 100%. You could find the value of 10% by dividing 60 by 6. You do the same to 9, divide by 6 to get 1.5. Now that you have the value of 10% you can multiply 10% by 10 to get 100. You also do the same to 1.5. Your answer should be 15, if not check your work again.

Answer:
Please find attached the graph of the relationship between the gallons, g, and cost, C
The relationship between the cost and number of gallons is cost C = $3.25 × Number of gallons, g
Step-by-step explanation:
The given parameters are;
Number of Gallons, g
Cost, C
6
$19.50
22 $71.50
From the given coordinates, we generate the graph using Microsoft Excel, as seen in the attached graph
The given coordinates can be used to find the equation of the relationship in point and slope form as follows;
The slope of the the given coordinates are (71.5 - 19.5)/(22 - 6) = 3.25
The equation of the graph in point and slope form is C - 71.5 = 3.25·(g - 22)
C - 71.5 = 3.25·(g - 22)
C = 3.25·g - 3.25 × 22 + 71.5 = 3.25·g - 0
C = 3.25·g
The relationship between the cost and number of gallons is cost C = $3.25 × Number of gallons, g
From the above equation, we have, that the price per gallon is $3.25
