Answer:

6 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

You can find this using the ration method.

If, 8 gallons : 192 miles

   x gallons : 144 miles

We must find the value of x, which is the number of gallons used to travel 144 miles.

Cross multiply the ratios.

192 x = 8 × 144

192 x = 1152

x = 1152 ÷ 192

x = 6

∴ It takes 6 gallons to travel 144 miles.

Ganezh [65]

Answer:

x = 2y - 7

x + y = 47

substitute x

2y - 7 + y = 47

3y = 54

y = 18

x = 2x18 - 7

x = 29

Neither P, nor A are on the sketch 
I guess P is the upper right corner of the rectangle 
and A=(0,1) 

P belongs to the line going through (1,0) and B(0,y) 
<span>but we don't know the y-coordinate of B </span>

<span>the triangle is right and isosceles, so pythagoras a²+a²=2² ... 2a²=4 ... a²=2 ... a=sqrt2 </span>
now look at the right triangle BOA 
<span>his hypotenuse is AB=sqrt2 and the <span>the kathete</span> OA is 1 </span>
so y²+1²=(sqrt2)² ... y²+1=2 ... y²=1.. y=1 
so the coordinates of B are (0,1) 

the line going through (1,0) and (0,1) is L(x)=-x+1 

P belongs to this line, so the coordinates of P are P(x,-x+1) (0<x<1) 

b) so if that's P, the height of the rectangle is -x+1 and the width=2x 
<span>so its area A(x)=2x*(-x+1)= -2x²+2x 

I hope my answer has come to your help. Thank you for posting your question here in Brainly.
