Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1) create equation

y = (4)2.5 + 125

2) simplify

y = 10 + 125

y = 135

3) find difference

x = 135-125/125

x = 0.08

x = 8%

A family has two cars. The first car has a fuel efficuency of 15 miles per gallon of gas and the second has a fuel efficiency of

SVEN [57.7K]

Answer:

x= 35 gallons consumed by 1st car

and y= 40 gallons consumed by 2nd car

Step-by-step explanation:

Fuel efficiency of 1st car = 15 miles per gallon

Fuel efficiency of 2nd car = 35 miles per gallon

Let x= gallons consumed by 1st car

and y= gallons consumed by 2nd car

Total gallons consumed by both cars = 75

so, we can write

x + y = 75

Miles covered by both cars = 1925 miles

and we know, Fuel efficiency of 1st car = 15 miles per gallon

Fuel efficiency of 2nd car = 35 miles per gallon

we can write the equation as

15 x + 35 y = 1925

where x and y are gallons consumed by 1st and 2nd car.

We have two equation now,

x + y = 75 (1)

15 x + 35 y = 1925 (2)

Multiplying eq(1) with 15 and subtracting eq (1) and 2

15 x + 15 y = 1125

15 x + 35 y = 1925

_______________

0 - 20 y = -800

y= -800 / -20

y = 40

Putting value of y in equation 1

x + y = 75

x + 40 = 75

x= 75 - 40

x = 35

x= 35 gallons consumed by 1st car

and y= 40 gallons consumed by 2nd car

A box has a volume of 192 cubic inches, a length that is twice as long as its width, and a height that is 2 inches greater than

ruslelena [56]

Answer:

Therefore the dimension of the cuboid is 8 inches×4 inches ×6 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

Cuboid : A cuboid is a three dimension shape. The length ,breadth and height of a cuboid are not same.

A cuboid has 6 faces.
A cuboid contains 8 vertices.
A cuboid contains 12 edges .
The total surface area of a cuboid is

= 2(length×breadth+breadth×height+length×height) square units

The dimension of a cuboid is written as length×breadth×height.

The volume is( length×breadth×height) cubic units

Given that the volume of the box is 192 cubic inches.

Let x inches be the width of the cuboid.

Since the length is twice as long as its width.

Then length = 2x inches

Again height is 2 inches longer than width.

Then height = (x+2) inches.

Therefore the volume of the cuboid is

$=[x\times 2x\times (x+2)]$ cubic inches

$=[2x^2(x+2)]$ cubic inches

$=(2x^3+4x^2)$ cubic inches

According to the problem,

$2x^3+4x^2=192$

$\Rightarrow 2x^3+4x^2-192=0$

$\Rightarrow 2(x^3+2x^2-96)=0$

$\Rightarrow (x^3+2x^2-96)=0$

$\Rightarrow x^3-4x^2+6x^2-24x+24x-96=0$

$\Rightarrow x^2(x-4) +6x(x-4)+24(x-4)=0$

$\Rightarrow (x-4)(x^2+6x+24)=0$

Therefore x=4

Since the all zeros of x²+6x+24 =0 is negative.

Therefore breadth = 4 inches

length=(2×4) inches=8 inches

and height = (4+2)inches = 6 inches.

Therefore the dimension of the cuboid is 8 inches×4 inches ×6 inches.
