A gas station sells regular gas for $2.30 per gallon and premium gas for $3.00 a gallon. At the end of a business day 320 gallons of gas had been sold, and receipts totaled $799. How many gallons of each type of gas had been sold

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

90 gallons premium gas

230 gallons regular gas

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the given information to form a system of equations.

First, let's set the variables:

Regular gas: r

Premium gas: p

Throughout the entire day, they sold 320 gallons of r and p combined.

r+p=320

Now, regular gas sells for 2.30 per gallon, which can be written as 2.30r

premium can be shown similarly as 3.00p. After all the gallons they sold, they got 799 in total.

2.30r + 3.00p = 799

As a system of equations, it can be written like this...

r+p=320

2.30r + 3.00p = 799

Now solve. (I won't explain much of the steps here but I'll show it. Comment questions if you have any, and I'll try to answer them.)

r=320-p

2.30r + 3.00p = 799

2.30(320-p)+3.00p=799

736+0.7p=799

0.7p=63

p=90 gallons of premium gas

Now we can solve for regular by just plugging in 90 gallons premium into the top equation.

r+p=320

r+90=320

r=230 gallons of regular gas

check work.

230(2.30)+90.0(3.00)=799

529+270=799

799=799

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's find the ml per garlic for each sauce. Emily's has 1 clove of garlic for 62.5 ml. Raphael's has 1 clove of garlic for 7.438... ml. So, A, it will be too garlicky.

A line contains the piont (4,5) and is perpendicular to a line with a slope of -2/3. Write an equarion of the line satisfying the given conditions. Write the answer in slope-intercept form

Answers

Answer:

[tex]y=\frac{3}{2}x-3.5[/tex] or, preferably, [tex]y=\frac{3}{2}x-\frac{7}{2}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

First is to find the perpendicular slope. In this case, you swap the numerator and denominator and then multiply that fraction by -1.

In this case, -2/3's inverse slope is 3/2.

Now, the initial y=3/2 passes through 7.5,5

So, you must subtract 3.5 from that to make it pass through 4,5.

In this way, you get the answer in slope-intercept form.

Answer:

y = [tex]\frac{3}{2}[/tex] x - 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given a line with slope m then the slope of a line perpendicular to it is

[tex]m_{perpendicular}[/tex] = - [tex]\frac{1}{m}[/tex] = - [tex]\frac{1}{-\frac{2}{3} }[/tex] = [tex]\frac{3}{2}[/tex] , then

y = [tex]\frac{3}{2}[/tex] + c ← partial equation in slope- intercept form

To find c substitute (4, 5) into the partial equation

5 = 6 + c ⇒ c = 5 - 6 = - 1

y = [tex]\frac{3}{2}[/tex] x - 1 ← equation of line

if (ax+b)(x-3) = 4x^2+cx-9 for all values of x, what is the value of c? a) -9 b) -6 c) 6 d) 9

Answers

Answer:

c=-9

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello,

[tex](ax+b)(x-3)=ax(x-3)+b(x-3)=ax^2-3ax+bx-3b\\\\=ax^2+(b-3a)x+(-3b) \\\\\text{And it should be equal to } 4x^2+cx-9[/tex]

We can identify the like terms so:

a = 4

b-3a = c

3b = 9 <=> b = 3

So c = 3 - 3*4 = 3-12 = -9

Hope this helps.

A blue die and a red die are thrown. B is the event that the blue comes up with a 6. E is the event that both dice come up even. Write the sizes of the sets |E ∩ B| and |B|a. |E ∩ B| = ___b. |B| = ____

Answers

Answer:

Size of |E n B| = 2

Size of |B| = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

I'll assume both die are 6 sides

Given

Blue die and Red Die

Required

Sizes of sets

- [tex]|E\ n\ B|[/tex]

- [tex]|B|[/tex]

The question stated the following;

B = Event that blue die comes up with 6

E = Event that both dice come even

So first; we'll list out the sample space of both events

[tex]B = \{6\}[/tex]

[tex]E = \{2,4,6\}[/tex]

Calculating the size of |E n B|

[tex]|E n B| = \{2,4,6\}\ n\ \{6\}[/tex]

[tex]|E n B| = \{2,4,6\}[/tex]

The size = 3 because it contains 3 possible outcomes

Calculating the size of |B|

[tex]B = \{6\}[/tex]

The size = 1 because it contains 1 possible outcome

Option C. x + 12 ≤ 2(x – 3)

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, we obtained the following information:

x + 12 ≤ 5 – y .......(1)

5 – y ≤ 2(x – 3) ....... (2)

To know which option is correct, do the following:

From equation 2,

5 – y ≤ 2(x – 3)

Thus, we can say

5 – y = 2(x – 3)

Now, we shall substitute the value of 5 – y into equation 1 as shown below:

x + 12 ≤ 5 – y

5 – y = 2(x – 3)

x + 12 ≤ 2(x – 3)

From the above illustration, we can see that if x + 12 ≤ 5 – y and 5 – y ≤ 2(x – 3), then x + 12 ≤ 2(x – 3) must be true.

Option C gives the correct answer.
