Answer:

Gallons = 27.95

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Gallons : Miles = 17:590

Required

Determine the number of gallon for 870 miles

To do this, we simply substitute 870 for miles in the ratio above

So, we have:

Gallons : 870= 17:590

Convert to fraction

\frac{Gallons}{870} = \frac{17}{590}

Multiply through  by 870

870 * \frac{Gallons}{870} = \frac{17}{590}*870

Gallons = \frac{17}{590}*970

Gallons = \frac{17*970}{590}

Gallons = \frac{16490}{590}

Gallons = 27.95

Alex73 [517]

Answer:

Q#1.total number of T-shirts for  total cost to be equal=10

Q#2.For the total cost to be the same for both companies, the volleyball team would need to purchase 10 T-shirts from each company

Q#3.total of $105 for each company.


Step-by-step explanation:

Q#1

two functions are given

y=10.5x

y=7.5x+30

where y represents cost and x represents number of shirts

we have to find number of shirts to be purchased from each company keeping cost equal

hence we will write

10.5x=7.5x+30

10.5x-7.5x=30

3x=30

x=30/3

x=10

Number of shirts to be equal cost price is 10

Q#2

two functions are given

y=10.5x

y=7.5x+30

where y represents cost and x represents number of shirts

we have to find number of shirts to be purchased from each company keeping cost equal

hence we will write

10.5x=7.5x+30

10.5x-7.5x=30

3x=30

x=30/3

Number of shirts =x=10

Q#3

total cost=y=?

for y=10.5x

put x=10

y=10.5*10

cost=y=105

and for other function

for y=7.5x+30

put x=10

y=7.5(10)+30

y=75+30=105

Can u solve the answer
pickupchik [31]

Answer:

She needs 50 ft² of wood to cover the table

Step-by-step explanation:

You need to know the formula for area of a trapezoid, which is

A = (B1 + B2)h/s     (add the bases together, multiply by the height, then divide

                                by 2)

We are given B1 = 12, B2 = 8, and h = 5, so plug them in and simplify

A = (12 + 8)(5)/2

 

    A = (20)(5)/2

       A = 100/2

         A = 50 ft²
