A certain truck traveling at 55 miles per hour gets 4.5 miles per gallon of diesel fuel consumed. Traveling at 60 miles per hour, the truck gets only 3.5 miles per gallon. On a 500-mile trip, if the truck used a total of 120 gallons of diesel fuel and traveled part of the trip at 55 miles per hour and the rest at 60 miles per hour, how many miles did it travel at 55 miles per hour?

On the day of the performance of a certain play each ticket that regularly sells for less than $10.00 is sold for half price plus $0.50, and each ticket that regularl sells for $10.00 or more is sold for half price plus $1.00. On the day of the performance, a person purchases a total of y tickets, of which x regularly sell for $9.00 each and the rest regularly sell for $12.00 each. What is the amount paid, in dollars for the y tickets?

In the formula w=~$\frac{P}{\sqrt[t]{V}}$~，integers P and t are positive constants.If w=2 when v=1 and if w=1/2 when v=64, then t=

If C is the temperature in degrees Celsius and F is the temperature in degrees Fahrenheit then the relationship between temperatures on the two scales is expressed by the equation 9C=5(F-32).On a day when the temperature extremes recorded at a certain weather station differed by 45 degrees on the Fahrenheit scale, by how many degrees did the temperature extremes differ on the celsius scale?

There were 36, 000 hardback copies of a certain novel sold before the paperback version was issued. From the time the first paperback copy was sold until the last copy of the novel was sold, 9 times as many paperback copies as hardback copies were sold. If a total of 441,000 copies of the novel were sold in all, how many paperback copies were sold?

A certain manufacturer uses the function C(x)=0.04x²-8.5x+25,000 to calculate the cost, in dollars, of producing x thousand units of its product. The table above gives values of this cost function for values of x between 0 and 50 in increments of 10. For which of the following intervals is the average rate of decrease in cost less than the average rate of decrease in cost for each of the other intervals?

A car traveled 462 miles per tankful of gasoline on the highway and 336 miles per tankful of gasoline in the city. If the car traveled 6 fewer miles per gallon in the city than on the highway, how many miles per gallon did the car travel in the city?

A school supply store sells only one kind of desk and one kind of chair, at a uniform cost per desk or per chair. If the total cost of 3 desks and 1 chair is twice that of 1 desk and 3 chairs,then the total cost of 4 desks and 1 chair is how many times that of 1 desk and 4 chairs?

Let n and k be positive integers with k ≤ n. From an n × n array of dots, a k × k array of dots is selected.The figure above shows two examples where the selected k × k array is enclosed in a square. How many pairs (n, k) are possible so that exactly 48 of the dots in the n × n array are NOT in the selected k × k array?

The figure above represents a network of one-way streets. The arrows indicate the direction of traffic flow and the numbers indicate the amount of traffic flow into or out of each of the four intersections during a certain hour. During that hour, what was the amount of traffic flow along the street from R to S if the total amount of traffic flow into P was 1, 200?

(Assume that none of the traffic originates or terminates in the network)
