Charles decided that his old car could not make a 1200 mile trip; it might break down. Rather than take a chance on a big repair

bill, and breaking down on the road, he decided to rent a car. The rental is $99 for a special three day weekend rate, with unlimited miles. If the rental car gets 30 miles per gallon and Charles has to pay $3.85 per gallon for gas, what is the total cost of gasoline and rental for the trip

Using proportions, it is found that the total cost of gasoline and rental for the trip is of $253.

<h3>What is a proportion?</h3>

A proportion is a fraction of a total amount.

In this problem, the total cost is composed by:

  • The rental fee of $99.
  • The gasoline cost, of $3.85 per gallon, considering that 1200/30 = 40 gallons were used.

Hence, the total cost is given by:

C = $3.85 x 40 + $99 = $253.

will the opposite of a number always,sometimes,or never be greater than the number itself??????? can someone do an example and a
weeeeeb [17]

When the number is positive, its opposite is less than the number.

9 ==> -9 . . . . . . less
72 ==> -72 . . . . less
324 ==> -324 . . less


When the number is negative, its opposite is greater than the number.

-8 ==> 8 . . . . . . greater
-3/4 ==> 3/4 . . . greater
-429 ==> 429 . . greater .

We've seen that the opposite can be less, and it can also be greater.
I guess that means that it's sometimes greater.
