Answer:

162.4 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

We can write a ratio to solve

116 miles x miles

----------------- = ------------

5 gallons 7 gallons

Using cross products

116*7 = 5x

Divide by 5

812 /5 = 5x/5

162.4 =x

At the movie theatre, child admission is $5.50 and adult admission is $8.90. On Friday four times as many adults tickets as chil

scoray [572]

Answer:

You can use grouping, quantity and value to solve this question.

Child admission = $5.50

Adult admission = $8.90

Friday sales (Quantity):

Child = x

Adult = 4x

Total sales = 5x

Friday sales (Value):

Child = $5.50

Adult = 4 × $8.90

= $35.60

Total sales = $986.40

1 group = $5.50 + $35.60

= $41.10

Number of groups = $986.40 ÷ $41.10

= 24

The number of child tickets sold is 24.

Solve the inequality below. Use the drop-down menus to describe the solution and its graph.

aniked [119]

Answer:

x < -4

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

I don't see the drop-down menus, but I will try to help as best as I can...

Like any other equation, you are trying to get x by itself.

Our first step will be to subtract 13 from both sides.

-7x + 13 > 41

-7x > 28

Now, we will need to divide -7 from both sides. But, remember, dividing or multiplying a negative number will switch, or flip, the sign.

-7x/-7 > 28/-7

Doing the above equation will provide us with x all alone on one side:

x < -4

Hope I helped!

Cabs charge $3.60 Flag Fall plus $2.19 per km. (a) Write down an equation to calculate the cost, C, of cab fare for a distance d

Softa [21]

(a) C = 3.60+2.19d

(b) The cab fare will be $36.45 for a distance of d kilometers.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Charges of Flag Fall = $3.60

Per kilometer charges = $2.19

Let,

d be the total distance.

C be the total cost for d kilometers.

(a) Write down an equation to calculate the cost, C, of cab fare for a distance d kilometres.

Total cost = Charges of flag fall + Per kilometer charges * distance

C = 3.60+2.19d

(b) Use your equation to calculate the cost of cab fare for a distance of 15 km.

Here,

d=15

Putting in Equation

$C=3.60+2.19*15\\C=3.60+32.85\\C=36.45$

The cab fare will be $36.45 for a distance of d kilometers.
