Answer:

  • Below given.

Step-by-step explanation:

  • 162 total guests.
  • 3 servers

Let the number of guests the second server helped be x.

then the first server helped 3x

then the third server helped [(3x)*2] = 6x

Equation in total:

                               6x + 3x + x = 162

                                10x = 162

                                   x = 16.2

  • First server helped: 3 * 16.2 = 49 guests
  • Second server helped: 16 guests
  • Third server helped: 6x = 6(16.2) = 97 guests

Allisa [31]
I believe B. is your answer. If you use the ac method, you will multiply 8 and 3 which is 24. So now, what factors of 24 will give you 10?6 and 4

Now substitute

8 {x}^{2}  + 4x + 6x + 3
Now do factorization by grouping.

4x(2x + 1) + 3(2x + 1)
Therefore, your answer is (4x+3)2x+1)

a vehicle uses 1 1/8 gallons of gas to travel 13 1/2 miles. at this rate how many miles can the vehicle travel per gallon of gas
elena55 [62]

Answer:

The vehicle can travel 12 miles per gallon of gas.

Step-by-step explanation:

  • The number of gallons used by a vehicle = 1 1/8 gallons

i.e.

1\frac{1}{8}=\frac{9}{8} gallons

  • The number of miles traveled by a vehicle = 13 1/2 miles

i.e.

13\frac{1}{2}=\frac{27}{2} miles

Thus,

Total Gallons =9/8 gallons

Total Distance in miles = 27/2 miles

Hence:

Unit Rate = [27/2 miles] / [9/8 gallons]

                = 12 miles per gallons  ∵ \frac{27}{2}\div \frac{9}{8}=12

   

Therefore, the vehicle can travel 12 miles per gallon of gas.
