An oil refinery produces gasoline from crude oil. For every 10,000 barrels of crude oil supplied, the refinery can produce 6,500 barrels of gasoline. How many barrels of gasoline can be produced from 3,500 barrels of crude oil?

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: 2,275 barrels of refined oil will be produced from 3,500 barrels of crude oil.


with the information that from 10,000 barrels of crude oil, 6,500 barrels of refined oil are produced, it immediately pops out that from x amount of crude oil, 65% will be refined.

now we need to find what is 65% of 3,500

(65)/(100) = (x)/(3,500)
to find x, we multiply 65 × 3,500 and that amounts to 227,500
that then is divided by 100 so 227,500 ÷ 100 = 2,275

Answer 2
Answer: 10000 barrels of crude oil produces 6500 barrels gasoline 
1 barrel of crude oil will produce 6500÷10000 barrels of gasoline 
3500 barrels of crude oil will produce 6500 × 3500 ÷10000 barrels 
= 3500 barrels of crude oil produce 2275 barrels of gasoline

Answers

Hello,
Answer D

1) if 4x+2>0 then |4x+2|=4x+2
==> 4x+2<26
==>4x<24
==>x<6

2) if 4x+2<0 then |4x+2|=-(4x+2)=-4x-2

==>-4x-2<26
==>-4x<28
==>x>-7

thus -7<x<6

Titus works at a hotel. Part of his job is to keep the complimentary pitcher of water at least half full and always with ice. When he starts his shift, the water level shows 4 gallons, or 128 cups of water. As the shift progresses, he records the level of the water every 10 minutes. After 2 hours, he uses a regression calculator to compute an equation for the decrease in water. His equation is W –0.414t + 129.549, where t is the number of minutes and W is the level of water. According to the equation, after about how many minutes would the water level be less than or equal to 64 cups

Answers

The correct answer is:

t ≥ 158.33, or rounded, t ≥ 160.

Explanation:

The equation we're given is 
W = -0.414t + 129.549, which an be written as
-0.414t + 129.549 = W.

We are asked to find the amount of time it would take for the water level to be less than or equal to 64 cups.  Plugging this information in, we have:

-0.414t + 129.549 ≤ 64

To solve this, we first cancel 129.549 by subtracting from both sides:
-0.414t + 129.549 - 129.549 ≤ 64 - 129.549
-0.414t ≤ -65.549

Now divide both sides by -0.414:
-0.414t/-0.414 ≤ -65.549/-0.414
t ≥ 158.33

(When we multiply or divide both sides of an inequality by a negative number, we must flip the inequality symbol.)

I dont understand how to do this

olume = length * height * width  

Therefore 280 = 4 * (n + 2) * (n + 5)  

Divide both sides of the equation by 4  

70 = (n + 2)(n +5)  

Expand  

70 = n^2 + 5n + 2n + 10  

Subtract 70 from both sides and simplify  

0 = n^2 + 7n -60  

Factor  

(n +12)(n -5) = 0  

Therefore n = -12 or + 5  

As n cannot be less than -2 as you cannot have a negative dimension, it means that n = 5 and the sides are 4, (5 + 2), (5 + 5) = 4, 7 and 10 inches respectively  

Volume is therefore  

4*7*10 = 280 = correct  

Hope this helped!

1.
supplementary add to 180
10x+70=180
minus 70 both sides
10x=110
divid both sides by 10
x=11 degrees
B


2.
right angle is 90 degrees
30+5x+15=90
5x+45=90
minus 45 both sides
5x=45
divide 5 both sides
x=9
B



1. B
2. B

1) 10x+70 = 180

 10x = 180-70

  10x = 110

  x =11

2) 5x+15+30 =90

   5x = 90-45

   x = 45/5

   x = 9
