7. Bruno Noticed Today's Gasoline Price At The Local Convenience Store Was Advertised As $3.40 Per Gallon.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

I'm pretty sure it $2.96

Answer 2

Answer:

option c) $ 2.96

Step-by-step explanation:

15% = 15 /100 = 0.15

Let last year's price = $ x

x + 15% of x = $ 3.40

x + 0.15*x = 3.40

x + 0.15x = 3.40    {Add like terms}

1.15x = 3.40   {Divide both sides by 1.15}

1.15x/1.15=3.40/1.15

x = 2.956

Last year's price = $ 2.96

Answers

Answer:

MP =  Rs. 1500

SP =  Rs. 1230

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the Cost Price (CP) be x

Then Market Price (MP):

MP = x+ 20% = 1.2x

Discounted Selling Price (SP):

SP = MP - 18% = 0.82*1.2x = 0.984x

Since the difference between CP and SP is Rs.20:

x - 0.984x = 200.016x = 20x= 20/0.016x = 1250

Then:

MP = 1.2*1250= Rs. 1500

and

SP = 1500*0.82 = Rs. 1230

What is the shortest time needed for all four of them to cross the river ?

Answers

Answer:

13 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Person 1: 1 min

Person 2: 2 min

Person 3: 7 min

Person 4: 10 min

Person 1, 3, and 4 cross first, which will take 10 minutes.

Then, Person 1 comes back, taking 1 minute.

Person 1 and Person 2 cross the river, taking 2 minutes.

10 + 1 + 2 = 13 minutes.

13 people fit comfortably in a 5 foot by 5 foot area. Use this value to estimate the size of a crowd that is 5 feet deep on one side of the street along a 4 mile section of a parade route.

Answers

Answer:

There are 203069 people in the crowd

Step-by-step explanation:

The first step in solving this problem is to ensure that we are working with the same units throughout the solution process. To do this, we will have to convert 4 miles to feet. (This is because every other unit is in feet).

Note: ( 1 mile =5280 feet)

4 miles = 21120 feet.  

The next step is to calculate the area that the entire parade is occupying. This can be done by multiplying the length of the parade by the breadth. In this case, it will be 21120ft X 5 ft = 105600 square feet.

We can now at this point, find the area occupied by only one person.

if 13 people occupy 25 square feet (5ft X5 ft)

1 person will occupy 25/13 = 1.92 square feet

We can finally get the number of people in the crowd by multiplying the area occupied by the whole crowd by the area of one person. This will be

105600 X 1.92= 203069 people in the crowd

can you draw a triangle with 90 degrees 60 degrees and 60 degrees

Answers

Answer:

no

Step-by-step explanation:

the sum of interior angles of a triangle should be 180

so the three possible angles would be 90 degree 60 degree and 30 degree

Answer:

[tex]\huge\boxed{\sf NO.}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The interior angles of a triangle must be adding to 180 degrees for it to "be" a triangle.

Let's check if 90°,60° and 60° are adding to 180°.

=> 90+60+60

=> 210°  > 180°

Since they are not adding to 180°, a triangle with the given angles cannot be formed.

Ask Richard swim underwater his elevation changes and family for six minutes altogether a change in -30 feet what was the change in elevation drink each minute what was the change in elevation during each minute

Answers

Answer:

The change of elevation during each minute is -5 feet per minute

Step-by-step explanation:

Here in this question, we are interested in calculating the change in elevation during each minute given that there was a total change of -30 feet in six minutes altogether.

Now, to calculate the change in elevation during each minute, we need to assume that the change in elevation per each of the minutes is the same.

So to calculate the change in elevation during each of the six minutes, we simply divide the total change in elevation by the total number of minutes.

Mathematically, that would be -30 feet/6 minutes = -5 feet per minute

Write an absolute value equation that has solution x = -6 and x = 10

Answers

Answer:

|x - 2| = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

The midpoint between -6 and 10 is;

(-6 + 10)/2 = 4/2 = 2

This means that the distance between 2 and either -6 or 10 will be 8.

Now, the absolute value equation will have to say that the distance between x and 2 is 8.

Thus, plugging those numbers into the pattern of |x - m| = b. Where m is the midpoint and b is the distance from midpoint to either values of x.

This gives us the absolute value equation:

|x - 2| = 8

What is the time in seconds the toy robot moves when the total distance is 408 centimeters? Seconds b. What is the distance in centimeters the toy robot moves after 3 seconds? Centimeters

Answers

Answer:

a.    [tex]T = 17s[/tex]

b.    [tex]D = 72cm[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Direct Variation

[tex]Distance(D)\ \alpha\ Time (T)[/tex]

D = 264 cm when T = 11 s

Calculating (a)

First, the constant of variation (k) as to be calculated;

Since, there exist a direct proportion; then,

[tex]D\ \alpha\ T[/tex]

[tex]D = kT[/tex]

Make k the subject of formula

[tex]k = \frac{D}{T}[/tex]

D = 264 cm when T = 11 s; So

[tex]k = \frac{264}{11}[/tex]

[tex]k = 24[/tex]

So: Solving for (a)

[tex]D = 408[/tex]

Substitute 408 for D and 24 for k in [tex]D = kT[/tex]

[tex]408 = 24 * T[/tex]

Divide both sides by 24

[tex]\frac{408}{24} = T[/tex]

[tex]T = \frac{408}{24}[/tex]

[tex]T = 17s[/tex]

Hence, time to move a distance of 408cm is 17s

Calculating (b)

[tex]T = 3[/tex]

Substitute 3 for T and 24 for k in [tex]D = kT[/tex]

[tex]D = 24 * 3[/tex]

[tex]D = 72cm[/tex]

Hence, distance covered in 3 seconds is 72cm

A rectangular flour canister has dimensions of 512 inches by 4 inches by 10 inches. A smaller sugar canister has dimensions of 312 inches by 3 inches by 8 inches. How much smaller is the volume of the sugar canister than the flour canister?

Answers

Answer:

The amount by which the sugar canister is smaller than the flour canister is 136 in³

Step-by-step explanation:

The dimensions of the flour canister = 5 and 1/2 inches by 4 inches by 10 inches

(5 and 1/2 = (5 1/2))

(3 and 1/2 = (3 1/2))

The dimensions of the smaller sugar canister = 3 and 1/2 inches by 3 inches by 8 inches

The volume of the rectangular prism = Length × Width × Height

∴ The volume of the flour canister = (5 1/2) × 4× 10 = 220 in.³

The volume of the sugar canister = (3 1/2) × 3 × 8= 84 in.³

The difference in volume between the flour canister and the sugar canister is given as follows;

220 in.³ - 84 in.³ = 136 in.³

The amount by which the sugar canister is smaller than the flour canister = 136 in.³.

What is Arithmetic Progression?

An arithmetic progression is a sequence of numbers in which each term is derived from the preceding term by adding or subtracting a fixed number called the common difference "d"

The general form of an Arithmetic Progression is a, a + d, a + 2d, a + 3d and so on. Thus nth term of an AP series is Tn = a + (n - 1) d, where Tₙ = nth term and a = first term. Here d = common difference = Tₙ - Tₙ₋₁

Sum of first n terms of an AP: Sₙ = ( n/2 ) [ 2a + ( n- 1 ) d ]

Given data ,

Let the figure 100 be represented as = a₁₀₀

Let the number of tiles in the first figure be a₁

The value of a₁ = 7 tiles

Let the number of tiles in the second figure be a₂

The value of a₂ = 13 tiles

So , the common difference of the arithmetic sequence is d

d = second term - first term

d = 13 - 7

d = 6

Now , the value of figure a₁₀₀ is calculated by the formula

Tn = a + (n - 1) d

Substituting the values in the equation , we get

a₁₀₀ = 7 + ( 100 - 1 ) 6

a₁₀₀ = 7 + ( 99 x 6 )

a₁₀₀ = 7 + 594

The value of a₁₀₀ = 601

Therefore , the figure will have 100 rows of 6 tiles and 1 row having 1 tile

And , the total number of tiles in the figure is 601 tiles

Hence , The figure will have 100 rows of 6 tiles and 1 row having 1 tile and

the number of tiles in figure 100 will be 601 tiles

Answers

Answer:

180° = x + (2x -15)

180°=3x-15

3x = 195

x =65°

x + y = 180°

65+ y= 180°

y = 115°

Answer:

x = 65, y = 115

Step-by-step explanation:

x and 2x - 15 are adjacent angles and supplementary, thus

2x - 15 + x = 180

3x - 15 = 180 ( add 15 to both sides )

3x = 195 ( divide both sides by 3 )

x = 65

y and 2x - 15 are congruent ( alternate angles ), thus

y = 2x - 15 = 2(65) - 15 = 130 - 15 = 115
