Answer:

The rate of car is 1949.7727 miles per gallons .

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as :

The reading of odometer before filling gas = r = 42,587 miles

The reading of odometer after filling gas = R = 42,895 miles

The quantity of gas filed up inside tank = q = 22 gallons

Let The rate of car's miles per gallon = r

Now, According to question

The rate of car's miles per gallon = $\dfrac{\textrm reading of odometer after filling gas}{\textrm quantity of gas filled}$

i.e r = $\dfrac{R}{q}$

Or, r = $\dfrac{42,895}{22}$

Or, r = 1949.7727 miles per gallons

So, The rate of car = r = 1949.7727 miles per gallons

Hence, The rate of car is 1949.7727 miles per gallons . Answer

Which step shows the result of applying the subtraction property of equality? One-fourth (12 x + 8) + 4 = 3 Step Solution 1 3 x

luda_lava [24]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the equation 1/4 (12 x + 8) + 4 = 3, to fnd the result of the equation, the following steps must be followed.

Step 1: Expand the bracket at the left hand side of the equation using the distributive property.

1/4 (12 x + 8) + 4 = 3

$\frac{1}{4} (12x)+\frac{1}{4}(8) + 4 = 3\\ 3x+2+4 = 3\\3x+6=3$

Step 2: Subtract 6 from both sides of the equation

$3x+6-6 = 3-6\\3x =-3\\x = \frac{-3}{3}\\ x = -1$

Answer:

48 hats and 104 shirts

Step-by-step explanation:

These are the equations you build from the problem:

h + s = 152

8.50h + 12s = 1656

This is how I solved them:

s= 152-h

8.5h + 12(152-h) = 1656

8.5h + 1824 - 12h = 1656

Solve for h

h= 48

Put this into first equation (h +s = 152) to get s

The packaging lists a model airplane’s length as 10.5 in. It also gives the scale as 1:83. What is the length of the actual airp

Lana71 [14]

$\bf \cfrac{\stackrel{model}{length}}{\stackrel{actual}{length}}\qquad 1:83\qquad \cfrac{1}{83}\implies \cfrac{1}{83}=\cfrac{10.5}{x}\implies x=\cfrac{83\cdot 10.5}{1}
\\\\\\
x=871.5~inches
\\\\\\
\textit{there are 12 inches in 1 foot, thus }
\\\\\\
871.5~\underline{in}\cdot \cfrac{ft}{12~\underline{in}}\implies 72.625~ft 
\qquad \approx 73~ft$

Triangle J K L is shown. Angle J K L is a right angle. An altitude is drawn from point K to point M on side L J to form a right

KiRa [710]

Answer:

$3\sqrt{5}\ units$

Step-by-step explanation:

Theorem 1: The height of right triangle drawn from the right angle to the hypotenuse divides the hypotenuse into two segments. The length of the altitude is the geometric mean of these two segments. Hence,

$KM^2=ML\cdot MJ\\ \\6^2=ML\cdot 3\\ \\3ML=36\\ \\ML=12\ units$

Theorem 2: In a right triangle, the altitude drawn from the right angle to the hypotenuse divides the hypotenuse into two segments. The length of each leg of the right triangle is the geometric mean of the lengths of the hypotenuse and the segment of the hypotenuse that is adjacent to the leg.

Thus,

$KJ^2=MJ\cdot ML\\ \\KJ^2=3\cdot (3+12)\\ \\KJ^2=3\cdot 15\\ \\KJ^2=45\\ \\KJ=\sqrt{45}=3\sqrt{5}\ units$
