9(u – 2) + 1.5u = 8.25where u equals the number of hours walking up a hill and (u – 2) equals the number of hours sledding down the hill. 
9u - 18 + 1.5u = 8.510.5u = 8.5 + 1810.5u = 26.5u = 26.5 / 10.5u = 2.52

"a guest orders a drink that contains 1½ ounces of 80-proof vodka and 12 ounces of beer. approximately how many drinks does this
frosja888 [35]
A guest orders a drink = <span>1½ ounces of 80-proof vodka and 12 ounces of beer
it means it contains 2 drinks.
Because 3 ounces of 80 proof vodka is considered as 2 drinks and half of that will be considered as 1 drink, and 12 ounces of beer is considered as one drink so the total drinks this beverage contains is two drinks.</span>

A taxi service charges a flat fee of $1.25 and $0.75 per mile. If Henri has $14.00, which of the following shows the number of m
MariettaO [177]
You want to get the total amount Henri has which is $14 then subtract the flat fee. 
14-1.25=12.75, He has $12.75 left to pay for miles, Since the taxi charges .75 a mile, you get $12.75/.75= 17
Henri has enough to pay to ride 17 miles. 

Hope this helps

The average thickness of books on a library shelf is 8.3 centimeters. The standard deviation is 0.6 centimeter. If 20% of the bo
jeka57 [31]

Answer:

8.8 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

-We know that the top 20% of the books are oversized.

-We therefore find the z-value of the top 20%:

z_{0.1}=8.4

#We substitute the z value in formula to solve X.

z=\frac{\bar  X-\mu}{\sigma}

Where

  • X is the minimum thickness of the book.

-Given \sigma=0.6 \ , \mu=8.3, the minimum thickness,X can be calculated as follows:

z=\frac{\bar  X-\mu}{\sigma}\\\\0.84=\frac{\bar X-8.3}{0.6}\\\\\bar X=0.84\times 0.6+8.3\\\\=8.804\approx 8.8\ cm

Hence, the minimum thickness of the oversized books is 8.8 cm

Suppose further that an average of 1,022,000 gallons of gasoline per day were sold in Massachusetts in 2010. The average revenue from gasoline tax in 2010 is approximately?

Answer:

$265,720

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

State gasoline tax = $0.26 per gallon

Average number of gasoline sold per day = 1,022,000 gallons

. From the availabke information given :

Revenue generated = gasoline tax per gallon multiplied by the average number of gallons sold

= $0.26 * 1,022,000

= $265,720
