Answer: x = $25.89

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a two step problem.  First we need to determine the number of gallons the car uses to drive the 250 miles:

250/28 ≈ 8.93 gallons

Then we just multiply the number of gallons by the price:

8.93 x 2.90 = $25.90

Alternate solution:  Use a proportion.  Since 1 gallon costs $2.90 and produces 28 miles, we can set up the following proportion:

2.90/28 = x/250

Cross-multiply and solve:

28x = 725

x = $25.89 (There is a one cent difference due to a rounding error in the first solution.  This solution avoids that error.)

The sum of three consecutive integers is greater than 66. What is the smallest possible product of the largest and smallest of t
AysviL [449]

Answer:

528

Step-by-step explanation:

So naturally at first sight for this question we would think -->

Oh 3 consecutive integers = 66 --> 66/3 = 22 (n-1), (n+1) so --> 21, 22, and 23.

But no. At second look it is the sum of 3 consecutive integers is greater than 66. So we find the next possible pair since it says smallest possible product.

We get the set (22, 23, 24). => Multiply the least and greatest integers together respectively 22 and 24 which amounts to => 528

And thus, we have out answer of 528

Hope this helps!
