Answer:20 and 15 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

The first car gets 25 miles per gallon

The second car gets 15 miles per gallon

Two cars consumed 35 Gallons

they went for 725 miles in total

suppose the first car consumes x gallons

so, the second car consumes 35-x gallons of gas

We can write

\Rightarrow 25x+15(35-x)=725\\\Rightarrow 25x-10x=725-525\\\Rightarrow 10x=200\\\Rightarrow x=20

First consumed 20 gallons and second consumed 15 gallons

Simplify 5m-2(6m-5)+2<br><br>a. -7m-8<br>b. -7m+12<br>c. 17m+12<br>d. 17m-8
fgiga [73]

The answer is B. -7m+12.


First distribute the -2 to 6m and -5.

5m-2(6m-5)+2

5m+(-2*6m)+(-2*-5)+2

5m+-12m+10+2


After that, combine the like terms.

5m+-12m+10+2

-5m+-12m=-7m

10+2=12


The simplified expression is -7m+12.

Describe an easy way to find the square root<br> when the number is not a perfect square?
marissa [1.9K]

The product of a rational number multiplied by itself is called as a perfect square.,we can easily find out the square root for a number which is a imperfect square

Step-by-step explanation:

using the following formula we can find a square root for a number which is a imperfect square

X = Non perfect square

√x = (square root of nearest lower perfect square +(x - perfect square)÷2×(√perfect square )

√x = (square root of nearest lower perfect square +(x - perfect square)÷2×(√perfect square )Example

√38

the nearest perfect root is 36

36 (√36=6)

so √38 = √36 + (38-36)/2√36

= 6 + 2/12

=6 + 1/6 = 6.166 (answer)

√38 the nearest perfect root is 36 36 (√36=6)so √38 = √36 + (38-36)/2√36 = 6 + 2/12=6 + 1/6 = 6.166 (answer)

Find the measure of &lt;1
Dmitry [639]

Consider the triangle (<em>in </em><em>which </em><em>angle</em><em>4</em><em> </em><em>is </em><em>present</em>)

by angle sum property,

20 + 40 + angle4 = 180

60 + angle4 = 180

angle4 = 180 - 60

angle4 = 120

Also,

angle2 = 120 (vertically opposite angles)

angle1 + angle2 = 180 (linear pair)

angle1 + 120 = 180

angle1 = 180 - 120

angle1 = 60
