Answer:
The cost of 5 gallons of fuel would be 5x assuming the cost of 1 gallon to be x.
Step-by-step explanation:
An old truck has a fuel efficiency rating of 12 mpg.
We have to find the cost of gasoline that will be used up after we drive 60 miles.
To drive 60 miles , it uses 5 gallons.
let the cost of 1 gallon of fuel be x.
We have to find the cost of 5 gallons of fuel.
So the cost of 5 gallons of fuel = 5
= 5x
Given :
Rema purchased 18 ounces of gold in 2005 for $414 per ounce in order to try to diversify her investment portfolio.
She sold a third of her holdings in gold in 2009 at a price $953 per ounce. She sold the rest of her gold holdings in 2010 for $1,367 per ounce.
To Find :
What is Prema’s profit in 2009 and 2010.
Solution :
Price of one third ounces of gold, in 2005 is :
P = $414/3 = $138 .
Profit from selling them in 2009 is :
P1 = $(953 - 138) = $815 .
Profit from selling them in 2010 is :
P2 = $( 1367 - ( 414 - 138 ) ) = $1091 .
Therefore, Prema's profit in 2009 is $815 and 2010 is $1091.
Hence, this is the required solution.
The answer is 1/2 cuz of simplyfing
24/74 simplified is 12/37
