The price of gasoline at a service station increased from $1.65 per gallon last week to $1.82 per gallon this week. Sally paid $26.40 for gasoline last week at the station. How much more will Sally pay this week at the station for the same amount of gasoline?

A. $1.70B. $2.55C. $2.64D. $2.72E. $2.90

D. $2.72

Step-by-step explanation:

The price of gasoline at a service station increased from $1.65 per gallon last week to $1.82 per gallon this week.

We need to find the percentage increase in the price of gasoline.

$1.82 - $1.65 = $0.17

=>  = 10.3%

There was a 10.3% increase in the price of gasoline.

Sally paid $26.40 for gasoline last week at the station. To find increase in the corresponding amount that Sally paid last week, we multiply $26.40 dollars by 10.3%:

= $2.72

Sally will pay $2.72 more for the same amount of gasoline.

step-by-step explanation:

here's what happens:

1) the graph of f   = x^2 is shifted 2 units to the right.

2) the resulting graph is reflected in the x-axis, so that the parabola now opens down.

3) this final result is transformed up by 5 units.

the entire expression should be subtracted from 30. to subtract the quantity, distribute the negative sign, which changes the signs on the terms. so, the –2 changes to positive and gets added to 30 instead of subtracted from it.

hope this ! ^w^
