Answer: 3 million barrels


Step-by-step explanation:

Given :- Total crude oil= 60 million barrels

Quantity of gasoline = 34% of total crude oil

=0.34\times60\text{ million barrels}\\=20.4\text{ million barrels}

Quantity of diesel = 29% of total crude oil

=0.29\times60\text{ million barrels}\\=17.4\text{ million barrels}

Clearly, Quantity of gasoline is more than Quantity of diesel

difference = Quantity of gasoline-Quantity of diesel

20.4\text{ million barrels}-17.4\text{ million barrels}\\=3\text{ million barrels}

Therefore, The production of gasoline is 3 million barrels more than diesel last year.

babunello [35]
I would label the x-axis with a scale 1-10 weeks and the y-axis with inches grown. The graph starts at 2inches because it’s the height of the plant. For the next 4 weeks there will be a growth of 1 inch a week (reaching 6) than the line stays at the height for 2 weeks until it gets sunlight again for 3 more weeks making it grown 3 more inches and repeats the process again.

Marta_Voda [28]

Given:

Elliot has a total of 26 books. He has 12 more fiction books than nonfiction books.

To Find:

A system of linear equations represents the situation.

Answer:

x+y=26\\\\x=y+12

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that  x represents the number of fiction books and y is the number of non-fiction books.

We are also given that the total number of books Elliot has is 26 which includes both fiction and non-fiction. So, we may write

x+y=26

Next, we are given that there are 12 more fiction books than non-fiction books. This means, the fiction books are more in number and so, we may write

x=y+12

So, the total system of equations can be represented as

x+y=26\\\\x=y+12
