6 0

Answer:

We use the formula:

S 10 = 8 · [(1/2)^9 - 1] / (1/2 - 1 );

Then, S 10 = 8 · ( 1/512 - 1 ) / ( 1/2 - 1 );

S 10 = 8 · ( - 511 / 512 ) / (-1 / 2 );

S 10 = ( - 511 / 64 ) · ( - 2 );

S 10 = + 511 / 32;

S 10 = 15.96;

A truck driver can travel 560 miles on 28 gallons of gas. How far can he travel on 35 gallons of gas?
Shtirlitz [24]
560 / 28 = 20....so the driver travels 20 miles per gallon

on 35 gallons......35 * 20 = 700 miles <==

or u can also do it this way...

560/28 = x / 35....560 miles to 28 gal = x miles to 35 gal
cross multiply because this is a proportion
(28)(x) = (560)(35)
28x = 19600
x = 19600/28
x = 700 miles <==

so u can either do it by finding the unit rate or by making a proportion. either way will result in the same answer.
