On her way home from the school board meeting, Kelly fills up her car. She likes the idea of using gasoline with ethanol, but thinks her car can only handle 50% ethanol. At the gas station, she can use regular gas with 15% ethanol or E78 fuel with 78% ethanol. How many gallons of each type of fuel should Kelly use if she wants to fill up her car with 9 gallons of fuel containing 50% ethanol?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

4 gallons of 15% ethanol

5 gallons of 78% ethanol

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Two types of gases:

1st gas with 15% ethanol

2nd gas with 78% ethanol

The gases are to be mixed in such a way that the mixture of gases comes out to be with 50% ethanol with volume of 9 gallons.

Let amount of gas with 15% ethanol used = [tex]x[/tex] gallons

Now, we are given that total volume is 9 gallons, then

amount of gas with 78% ethanol used = 9 - [tex]x[/tex] gallons

As per the question statement:

[tex]x\times 15\% + (9-x)\times 78\%=9\times 50\%\\\Rightarrow x\times 15 + (9-x)\times 78=9\times 50\\\Rightarrow 9\times 78-9\times 50=63x\\\Rightarrow 9\times 28=63x\\\Rightarrow \bold{x = 4\ gallons}[/tex]

Therefore, the answers are:

4 gallons of 15% ethanol

9 - 4 = 5 gallons of 78% ethanol

Answer 2

The number of gallons required of both kind would be as follows:

4 gallons having 15% ethanol

5 gallons having 78% ethanol

Given that,

The 2 kinds of gases are:

One with 15% ethanol

Other with 78% ethanol

Given that,

The gases(ethanol and gasoline) are diluted in a such a manner that it involves a total of only 50% ethanol.

Number of gallons she wants to use = 9

This shows that only 50% of 9 gallons i.e. 4.5 gallons of ethanol can be used.

Assuming x being the gasoline's measure that is diluted with 15% ethanol.

Now,

The gasoline's measure that is diluted with 78% ethanol would be = 9 - x gallons

Therefore,

x × 15% + (9-x) × 78% = 4.5

On solving, we get

x = 4 gallons

Thus,

The measure of gallons having 15% ethanol = 4

The measure of gallons having 78% ethanol = (9 - x)

= (9 - 4)

= 5 gallons

An office supply company ordered 24 cartons of specialty paper. The regular price for a carton of specialty paper is $6.88. They received a discount of $1.75 off each carton. About how much money will the office supply company need to pay for the paper? Which of the expressions gives a reasonable estimate of the answer?

Answers

Answer:

   $123.12

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the regular price for the specialty paper is

$6.88 per carton

and the company receives a discount of $1.75 per carton

this means that the company will pay  $6.88-$1.75 = $5.13 per carton

To calculate the cost of the supply for 24 cartons we have

24*5.13= $123.12

the cost of the supply is $123.12

alternatively we can also calculate the percentage discount as

Actual cost of 24 cartons= 24*6.88= $165.12

Discount= $6.88-$1.75 = $5.13 per carton

%discount= 1.75/6.88= 0.2543

= 25.43%

The price after discount is

=$165.12*(1-0.2543)

=$165.12*0.7456

= $123.12

Step-by-step explanation:

First you do the parentheses so the -3 x 8n= -24 and -3 x -5= 15

so it will look like this. -24n+15-2n=8n-21

Now combine like terms the -24n-2n.

-26n+15=8n-21 now subtract 8n now it will look like this

-34n+15=-21 now -15 from -21

-34n=-36

Find the radian measure of the central angle of a circle of radius r that intercepts an arc of length s. Radius r Arc Length s 19 feet 7 feet

Answers

Answer:

The radian measure of the central angle of the given circle is [tex]\frac{7}{19} rad[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The radian measure of the central angle θ of a circle of radius r that intercepts an arc of length s can be calculated from the formula given below

s =rθ

where s is the length of arc

r is radius of the circle

and θ is the central angle in rad (radian)

From s = rθ, Then

θ = s / r

From the question,

Radius r = 19 feet

and Arc length s = 7 feet

Hence,

θ = s / r becomes

θ = 7 / 19

∴ θ [tex]= \frac{7}{19} rad[/tex]

This means the radian measure of the central angle of the given circle is [tex]\frac{7}{19} rad[/tex]

Use the number line below, where RS = 9y +5, ST = 5y + 6, and RT = 123.
a. What is the value of y?
b. Find RS and ST.

Answers

Answer:

[tex]y=8[/tex]

RS: 77

ST: 46

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that RS and ST together make the line RT. This means the sum of their lengths will be equal to RT.

Since RT is 123, we can create the equation [tex]9y+5+5y+6=123[/tex].

Combining like terms gets us [tex]14y+11=123[/tex]

We can now solve for y by isolating the variable on one side of the equation.

[tex]14y + 11 - 11 = 123-11\\\\14y=112\\\\14y\div14 = 112\div14\\\\y=8[/tex]

Now we know the value of y. We can now substitute this into the expressions for RS and ST to find their values.

RS = [tex]9y+5\\\\(9\cdot8)+5\\\\72+5\\\\77[/tex]

ST = [tex]5y+6\\\\(5\cdot8)+6\\\\40+6\\\\46[/tex]

We can confirm this is correct because [tex]46+77=123[/tex].

∠A and \angle B∠B are vertical angles. If m\angle A=(3x-30)^{\circ}∠A=(3x−30)

and m\angle B=(2x-9)^{\circ}∠B=(2x−9)

, then find the value of x.

Answers

Answer:

[tex]x=21\textdegree[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

So we know that:

[tex]\angle A=3x-30 \text{ and}\\\angle B=2x-9[/tex]

And that the two angles are vertical angles.

Since they are vertical angles, their measurements are equivalent. Thus, to find x, set the equations equal to each other:

[tex]\angle A=\angle B\\(3x-30)=(2x-9)[/tex]

Now, solve for x. Add 30 to both sides. The left side cancels:

[tex](3x-30)+30=(2x-9)+30\\3x=2x+21[/tex]

Now, subtract 2x from both sides. The right cancels:

[tex](3x)-2x=(2x+21)-2x\\x=21[/tex]

Thus, the value of x is 21.
