Answer:

it will take 3 5/8 of gas to fill the tank

Step-by-step explanation:

14 1/2 - 10 7/8 can be re-written using improper fractions

29/2 - 87/8 We need a common denominator, which is 8

116/8 - 87/8 = 29/8 = 3 5/8 gal

The cost in dollars of making x items is given by the function C(x) = 10x + 500. a. The fixed cost is determined when zero items

Brilliant_brown [7]

Answer:

a. $500

b. $250

Step-by-step explanation:

a. For zero items produced, cost will be-

$C(0) = 10(0) + 500 = 0 + 500 = 500$

b. For zero items produced, cost will be-

$C(25) = 10(25) + 500 = 250 + 500 = 750$

c. If $C(x)_{max} = 1500$

$10x + 500 = 1500\\10x = 1000\\x = 100$

∴ domain for cost function will be $[0,100]$ and range will be 100

the sum of two numbers is 70. the larger number is five less than twice the smaller number . what are the two numbers

earnstyle [38]

X+y=70
x=2y-5
x=larger number
y=smaller number
now plug in the value of x to only have one variable in the equation...
Way to solve for y:
(2y-5)+y=70
3y-5=70
add 5 on both sides...
3y=75
divide by 3 on both sides
y=25
1st way to solve for x:
now plug in y in the original equation...
x+25=70
subtract 25 on both sides...
x=45
2nd way to solve for x:
plug in y for the second equation...
x=25(2)-5
x=50-5
x=45
answer: the two numbers are 45 and 25.
