$74.1

Start by adding the 20 dollars back. 20+9.64=29.64 that means that 29.64 is 2/5 of the original price. If we divid that in half you will get 1/5 of the original price. 29.64/2=14.82 now if we multiply that by 5 you will get the original price. 14.82 times 5= 74.1

Hey there! :)

Answer:

y = 11.

Step-by-step explanation:

Set both of the equations equal:

5x - 9 = x² - 3x + 7

Rearrange the equation:

0 = x² - 3x - 5x  + 9  + 7

Combine like terms:

0 = x² - 8x + 16

Factor:

0 = (x -4)²

Solve for x:

0 = x - 4

x = 4.

Plug this into an equation to solve for 'y':

y = 5(4) - 9

y = 20 - 9

y = 11.

Two similar solids have edges of 12 feet and 24 feet. If the smaller
nekit [7.7K]

Answer: 2,160\ ft^3

Step-by-step explanation:

The first step is to find the ratio of the lengths.

According to the information given in the exercise, one the solids has edges of  12 feet and the other solid has edges of 24 feet.

Therefore, the ratio of the length of the smaller solid to the length of the is the following:

k=\frac{24\ ft}{12\ ft}\\\\k=2

Now, the ratio to the volumes of the smaller solid to the other one is the following:

k^3=2^3=8

Then, knowing that the volume of the smaller solid is:

V_s=270\ ft^3

You get that the volime of the larger solid is:

V_l=270\ ft^3*8\\\\V_l=2,160\ ft^3

Yesterday, Jack drove 43.5 miles. He used 11 gallons of gasoline. What is the unit rate for miles per gallon?
Alexxx [7]

Answer:

the unit rate for miles per gallons = 3.95 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the unit rate for miles per gallon.

Given:

Jack drove 43.5 miles. He used 11 gallons of gasoline.

Find the unit rate for miles per gallon?

Jack used 11 gallons of gasoline for 43.5 miles.

11 gallons = 43.5 miles

The unit rate for miles per gallon is

unit rate of gallons = total miles divided by total used gallons of gasoline

x=\frac{43.5}{11}

x=3.95miles

Therefore, the unit rate for miles per gallons is 3.95 miles.
