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

What does it mean to find the point P on GK such that 3(GP)=2(PK
Stolb23 [73]
This means that point P lies on GK where the ratio between the length of GP to the length of PK is:
GP/PK = 2/3

To better understand this, assume that the length of GK is 5 cm. Applying the given ratio, we will find that:
GP = 2 cm and PK = 3cm

(-5y^2-9y-4)-(-2y^2-y+8)
Naddika [18.5K]

Answer:

−3y2−8y−12

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's simplify step-by-step.

−5y2−9y−4−(−2y2−y+8)

Distribute the Negative Sign:

=−5y2−9y−4+−1(−2y2−y+8)

=−5y2+−9y+−4+−1(−2y2)+−1(−y)+(−1)(8)

=−5y2+−9y+−4+2y2+y+−8

Combine Like Terms:

=−5y2+−9y+−4+2y2+y+−8

=(−5y2+2y2)+(−9y+y)+(−4+−8)

=−3y2+−8y+−12

Please help find the percent of decrease?!
Greeley [361]

decrease = 9%

percent decrease = \frac{decrease}{original cost} × 100%

decrease = $98 - $89 = $9

percent decrease = \frac{9}{98} × 100% = 9% (to nearest whole percent )

Designer Dolls, Inc., found that the number N of dolls sold varies directly with their advertising budget A and inversely with t
denis-greek [22]

here we are told that

number of dolls sold varies directly with advertising costs

number of dolls varies inversely with price of a doll


so initially

1800 dolls sold when advertising costs were $ 34 000

and price of a doll was $ 25


next they increased the advertising costs to $ 42 000

as we know number of dolls sold varies directly with advertising costs

so here when the advertising costs increase the number of dolls sold too should increases as its directly proportional relationship


we arent told that the price of a doll is changed so there's no effect on the number of dolls sold due to changes in price of a doll


only effect on number of dolls sold is due to increase in advertising costs

increase in advertising cost leads to increase in number of dolls sold


from the given options, only in one option the number of dolls sold are more than 1800 dolls. option is C with 2224 dolls


therefore correct answer is C. 2224 dolls
