2. A company is buying two warehouses near their production plants in two states,
New York and Georgia. As is always the case in the real estate market, the
geographic location plays a major role in the price of the property. Consequently,
the warehouse in New York costs $30,000 less than four times the Georgia
warehouse. Together, the two warehouses cost the company $445,000. How many
more thousand dollars does the New York property cost than the Georgia
property?_____________________________________

selects one of the available cars, what is the probability that he will get a car that has a
fuel efficiency rating of at least 25 miles per gallon? Enter your answer as a decimal
number._________________________
4. The volume of a rectangular shipping crate being loaded onto a barge for

miles mostly by highway. The second car traveled 85 miles mainly on rural two-
lane roads. The third car traveled 25 miles primarily on busy city streets.
The first car traveled at an average speed of 64 mph. The second car started its
drive at 2:18 PM. How many minutes had the first car already been traveling
before the second car started its
drive?_____________________________________
8. Three cars all arrive at the same destination at 4:00 PM. The first car traveled 144
miles mostly by highway. The second car traveled 85 miles mainly on rural two-
lane roads. The third car traveled 25 miles primarily on busy city streets.
The third car encountered heavy traffic for the first 60% of its trip and only
averaged 15 mph. Then traffic stopped due to an accident, and the car did not
move for 20 minutes. After the accident was cleared, the car averaged 30 mph for
the remainder of the trip. At what time in the afternoon did the third car start its
trip? Use only digits for your answer. (For example, enter 1:25 PM as
125.)________________________________
