In 2000, U.S. Airways burned about 115 litres of fuel per passenger. In 2014 that dropped
to 90 litres of fuel per passenger. What is the percentage reduction in fuel used? Give you
answer to the nearest whole percentage.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

22% reduction

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the percent decrease by dividing the difference in amounts by the original amount.

Find the difference:

115 - 90 = 25

Divide this by the original amount:

25/115

= 0.217

So, the percent decrease is 21.7%. Round this to the nearest whole percentage:

= 22

The percent reduction in fuel used was approx. 22%

Point R is on line segment QS. Given RS=11 and QS=19, determine the length QR.

Answers

Answer: QR is 8 units long

================================================

Explanation:

R is between Q and S and on segment QS, allowing us to say

QR + RS = QS

because of the segment addition postulate.

-------

Use substitution and solve for QR

QR + RS = QS

QR + 11 = 19

QR = 19 - 11 .... subtracting 11 from both sides

QR = 8

There are 2 Rectangles, a red one and a blue one.The Blue rectangle has the perimeter of 250 km. If the area of the red rectangle is 2,500 square kilometers, what are its dimensions?


(Both of the rectangles have the same perimeter)

Answers

Answer:a

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

length = 100

width = 25

Step-by-step explanation:

Let L = length of red rectangle

Let H = height of red rectangle

Equation1:   L+H=125 : we know the perimeter is 250 so L+H is 125

Equation2:   L*H=2,500 : we know the area is 2,500

Equation3:   L=125-H : subtracted H from both sides of Equation1

Equation4:   (125-H)*H=2,500 : substituted "125-H" for L into Equation2

Solve equation4:

  (125-H)*H=2,500   multiple terms on left side of equation

  125H - H^2 = 2,500   rearrange into standard form

  H^2 - 125H + 2,500 = 0

At this point you can "brute force" the answer with the quadratic formula:

H = (125 ± SQRT(125^2 - 4*1*2500) ) / 2

H = 100 or H = 25 : actually these are L and H

You could also factor the equation:

(H - 100) * (H - 25) = 0 : gives same answe

Verizon charges a $40 sign up fee and $60 a month for their new hotspot. T-Mobile charges a $100 sign up fee and then $40 per month for their new hotspot. After how many months of service will the two company's fees be the same?

Answers

It will take 3 months for both company's fees be the same

Let

y = total charges

x = number of months

Verizon:

y = 40 + 60x

T-Mobile:

y = 100 + 40x

Number of months it will take both companies to charge the same fee

Equate the total charges of both companies

40 + 60x = 100 + 40x

40 - 100 = 40x - 60x

-60 = - 20x

x = -60 / -20

x = 3 months

Admission to a baseball game is $5.00 for general admission and $7.00 for reserved seats. The receipts were $6192.00 for 1136 paid admissions. How many of each ticket were sold? (Round to nearest integer if necessary.)
_ general admissions tickets sold
_ reserved seating tickets sold

Answers

Answer:

General admissions sold: 880

Reserved seating sold: 256

Step-by-step explanation:

Set up equation:

Variable x = people who bought general admission

Variable y = people who bought reserved seating

x + y = 1136

5x + 7y = 6192

Isolate a variable in any equation:

Y = 1136 - x

Substitute the value of the variable in the other equation:

5x + 7(1136 - x) = 6192

5x + 7952 - 7x = 6192

-2x + 7952 = 6192

-2x = -1760

x = 880

Substitute the value of x in any equation:

880 + y = 1136

y = 256

Check your work:

880 + 256 = 1136

1136 = 1136

Correct!

5(880) + 7(256) = 6192

4400 + 1792 = 6192

6192 = 6192

Correct!

Step-by-step explanation:

The sale offers 2 pair of shoes for $45, but the price is same for 1 pair of shoes.

The cost of 3 pair of shoes

= The sale price of 2 pair of shoes + Regular price of 1 pair of shoes

= $45 + $27

If y = 3x +1 were changed to y = x+1, how would the graph of the new function
compare with the original?
A. It would be shifted down.
B. It would be shifted up.
C. It would be less steep.
D. It would be steeper.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The standard form of a linear equation, a line, is y = mx + b, where m is the slope. The rule is the higher this value of m, the steeper the graph is. If we have the original equation y = 3x + 1, its slope m is 3; in the "new" equation, y = x + 1, its slope is 1. So the "new" equation would be less steep because the slope is a lower value than the original.

Answer:

[tex]l = 28[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]S = \sum (2k - 3); k = 4\ to\ l[/tex]

Required

What is l when S = 725

This can be solved using Sum of n terms of an AP;

[tex]S_n = \frac{n}{2}(T_1 + T_n)[/tex]

Where

[tex]S_n = 725[/tex]

[tex]T_1 = first\ term[/tex]

To get T1; we substitute 4 for k in 2k - 3

[tex]T_1 = 2 * 4 - 3[/tex]

[tex]T_1 = 8 - 3[/tex]

[tex]T_1 = 5[/tex]

[tex]T_n = last\ term[/tex]

To get Tn; we substitute l for k in 2k - 3

[tex]T_n = 2 * l - 3[/tex]

[tex]T_n = 2l - 3[/tex]

n = the number of terms;

Since k = 4 to l, then

[tex]n = l - 4 +1[/tex]

[tex]n = l - 3[/tex]

Substitute these values in [tex]S_n = \frac{n}{2}(T_1 + T_n)[/tex]

[tex]725 = \frac{l-3}{2}(5 + 2l - 3)[/tex]

Collect Like Terms

[tex]725 = \frac{l-3}{2}(2l + 5- 3)[/tex]

[tex]725 = \frac{l-3}{2}(2l + 2)[/tex]

Open the bracket

[tex]725 = \frac{l-3}{2} * 2l + \frac{l-3}{2} * 2[/tex]

[tex]725 = (l-3) * l + (l-3)[/tex]

[tex]725 = l^2-3l + l-3[/tex]

[tex]725 = l^2-2l -3[/tex]

Subtract 725 from both sides

[tex]725 - 725 = l^2-2l -3 - 725[/tex]

[tex]l^2-2l -3 - 725 = 0[/tex]

[tex]l^2-2l - 728 = 0[/tex]

[tex]l^2 + 26l - 28l - 728 = 0[/tex]

[tex]l(l + 26) - 28(l + 26) = 0[/tex]

[tex](l - 28)(l + 26) = 0[/tex]

[tex]l - 28 = 0[/tex] or [tex]l + 26 = 0[/tex]

[tex]l = 28[/tex] or [tex]l = -26[/tex]

But l must be positive;

Hence, [tex]l = 28[/tex]

Answer: r = 15/11

Step-by-step explanation:

16 - 2r = 3r + 6r + 1

Combine like terms

16 - 2r = 9r + 1

Add 2r on both sides

16 - 2r + 2r = 9r + 1 + 2r

16 = 11r + 1

Subtract 1 on both sides

16 - 1 = 11r + 1 - 1

15 = 11r

Divide 11 on both sides

15 / 11 = 11r / 11

If she completes her degree in 2 years and it costs $15,000, how long will it take her to recover her investment assuming that she earns the median salary? A graph titled Median Annual Household Income by Educational Attainment of Householder, 1997. Professional degree, 92,228 dollars; doctorate degree, 87,232 dollars; master's degree, 68,115 dollars; Bachelor's degree or more, 63,292 dollars; Bachelor's degree, 59,048 dollars; associate degree, 45,258 dollars; some college, no degree, 40,015 dollars; high school graduate, 33,779 dollars; ninth to twelfth grade, 19,851 dollars; than twelfth grade, 15,541 dollars. a. almost 6 years b. almost 7 years c. almost 8 years d. almost 9 years

Answers

Answer:

  a. almost 8 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Brenda's expected annual increase in salary is ...

  $63,292 -45,258 = $18,034

If we assume that Brenda's cost of education includes going without 2 years' salary as well as the cost of tuition, her degree's total cost will be ...

  2×$45,258 +15,000 = $105,516

__

Once Brenda starts earning again, she is recovering this cost at the rate of $18,034 per year, so it will take ...

  $105,516/($18,034 /yr) = 5.85 yr

to recover that cost.

Since Brenda spent 2 years in school, from the time she decides to start school until she has recovered her cost, it will be 2 + 5.85 = 7.85 years, almost 8 years.

_____

If Brenda can continue working while going to school, she can recover her tuition cost in about 10 months after graduation.

Hello, when you try to find the intersection point(s) you need to solve a system like this one

So, you come up with a polynomial equation like.

And then, we can estimate the discriminant.

[tex]\Delta=(b-m)^2-4*a*(c-p)[/tex]

If [tex]\Delta<0[/tex] there is no real solution, no intersection point.

If [tex]\Delta=0[/tex] there is one intersection point.

If [tex]\Delta>0[/tex] there are two real solutions, so two intersection points.
