The relationship between gallons and liters and a currency exchange rate between United States dollars and Canadian dollars are

given:
1 gallon ≈ 3.79 liters
1 US dollar = 1.26 Canadian dollars, or US$1 = C$1.26


William, a citizen of the United States, is traveling in Canada. While he is there, the price of gasoline is C$1.18 per liter. It takes 15 gallons of gasoline to fill his tank.

How much does the gasoline cost him in US dollars to the nearest cent?

The cost of the gasoline in US dollars is  $53.24.

<h3 /><h3>Definition of exchange rate</h3>

Exchange rate is the rate at which one currency is exchanged for another currency. In this question, $1 would be exchanged for 1.26 Canadian dollars.

<h3>Conversion of 15 gallons to liters</h3>

In order to convert 15 gallons to liters, multiply 15 by 3.79

15 x 3.79 = 56.85 liters

<h3>Total cost of of 56.85 liters in Canadian dollars </h3>

56.85 liters x C$1.18 = C$67.083

<h3>Total cost in US dollars</h3>

C$67.083 / 1.26 = $53.24

A coordinate grid with 2 lines. The first line is labeled y equals negative StartFraction 7 over 4 EndFraction x plus StartFract
KengaRu [80]

Answer:

1) (2.2, -1.4)

2) (1.33, 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Question 1)

Two lines, with their corresponding equations are given and we have to find the solution to the system of equations.

The given lines are:

Equation of Line 1:

y=\frac{-7}{4}x+\frac{5}{2}

This line passes through the points: (0, 2.5) , (2.2, -1.4)

Equation of Line 2:

y=\frac{3}{4}x-3

This line passes through the points (0, -3) , (2.2, -1.4)

By looking at the graph/given data we have to find the solution of these linear equations.

Remember that the solution of linear equations is an ordered pair, through which both the lines pass i.e. the point at which both the given lines intersect is the solution of the linear equations.

From the given data we can see that both the lines pass through one common point, (2.2, -1.4). Since, both lines pass through this point, this means this is the point of intersection of the lines and hence there solution.

So, the answer to this questions is (2.2, -1.4)

Question 2)

The given equations are:

y = 1.5x - 1                                        Equation 1

y = 1                                                  Equation 2

We can solve these equations by method of substitution.

Substituting the value of y from Equation 2, in Equation 1, we get:

1 = 1.5x - 1

1 + 1 = 1.5x

2 = 1.5x

x = 2/1.5

x = 1.33

y = 1

Thus, the solution of the given linear equations is (1.33, 1)

Factor the expression below.
Leni [432]

Answer: B

Step-by-step explanation:

When you factor an expression, you want to take out a factor of the numbers and variables.

Since this expression is a bit hard to factor as itself, we can FOIL the answers to see the correct expressions.

(4x-5)(4x-5)

16x²-20x-20x+25

a high school track teams long jump record is 21 feet and 2 1/4 inches. this year Tims best long jump is 20 feet and 9 1/2 inche
Alex787 [66]

Answer:

4.75 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

We must introduce the symbols for inches and feet.

Here we will use, x' = x feet and x" = x inches

A high school track teams long jump record is 21 feet and 2\dfrac{1}{4} inches i.e. 21'2.25" this year.

Now, Tim's best long jump is 20 feet and 9\dfrac{1}{2} inches i.e. 20'9.5".

So, the difference between the record jump and Tim's best jump is

(21'2.25" - 20'9.5")

= (21'2.25" - 21') + (21' - 20'9.5")

= 2.25" + 2.5" {Since, 1' = 12" i.e. 21' = 20' 12"}

= 4.75"

Therefore, Tim has to jump 4.75 inches farther to break the record. (Answer)
