Answer:

3¢ or 0.03

Step-by-step explanation:

To answer this, we just need to divide the price of a gallon by the amount of ounces in a gallon.

When we do this, we get the price of an ounce, or one serving.

There are 128 fluid ounces in a gallon.

$3.48/128=0.02718... or 0.03.

The amount of milk for one portion, or one ounce, costs 3 cents.

Amount of fuel in the tank before the story begins . . . . . zero.

Total amount poured in . . . . . 3/4 gallon.

Total amount burned:
                   on Friday . . . . . 1/4 gallon
                   on Sunday . . . . 1/4 gallon
                        Total used . . 1/2 gallon .

Amount remaining in the tank on Monday:

               (3/4 gallon in) - (1/2 gallon burned)  =  1/4 gallon left.
                                                                        ==>  NOT empty

The tank would have been empty on Monday IF Becky
had poured in only 1/2 gallon, instead of 3/4 of a gallon

You sell sporting goods. Your wages depend on the value of your sales. One week you sold $3,500 in sporting goods, earning $950.
Semmy [17]

Answer:

y = 0.2x + 250

Step-by-step explanation:

let the sales be x and y be earnings

thus,

given

x₁ = $3,500 ; y₁ = $950

and,

x₂ = $2,800 ; y₂ = $810

Now,

the standard line equation is given as:

y = mx + c

here,

m is the slope

c is the constant

also,

m = \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

or

m = \frac{810-950}{\textup{2,800-3,500}}

or

m = 0.2

substituting the value of 'm' in the equation, we get

y = 0.2x + c

now,

substituting the x₁ = $3,500 and y₁ = $950 in the above equation, we get

$950 = 0.2 × $3,500 + c

or

$950 = $700 + c

or

c = $250

hence,

The equation comes out as:

y = 0.2x + 250

Mike earns $6.50 per hour plus 4% of his sales enter an equation for mikes total earnings, e, when he works x hours and has a to
Cerrena [4.2K]
First identify what each variable means. since X is the amount of hours he works, and he makes $6.50 an hour, you know you need to multiply those two numbers together creating the 6.50x. You also know Y is his total sales, and he earns 4% of Y. To find 4% of Y you need to turn the percent into a decimal, and to do this you move the decimal two spaces to the left. Since 4 is a whole number, the decimal is after the 4 so you get .04 as your decimal. Then youd multiply .04 by Y getting .04y. Lastly you add 6.50x + .04y to get E, mikes total earnings. So your final equation is

6.50x + .04y = e

Hope this all makes sense

Jennifer has a square bedroom. The area of her room is 144 ft2. What is the length of one side of Jennifer’s room?
Jobisdone [24]

Answer:

Option B. 12\ ft

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The area of a square is equal to

A=x^{2}

where

x is the length side of the square

In this problem we have

A=144\ ft^{2}

substitute and solve for x

144=x^{2}

suqre root both sides

x=12\ ft
