Johnson family took a trip in July. The son wanted to calculate the gas mileage in miles per gallon for his Nissan truck. When h

e filled the tank, he recorded the mileage as 24,033 miles. It cost him $83.38 to fill his completely empty gas tank. Then If gas cost $3.79 per gallon, how many gallons of gas can his tank hold? Then When he got to their destination there was exactly ¼ that amount of gas left in the tank. The new mileage on the truck was 24,297 miles. Determine the gas mileage, in miles per gallon, for the trip. How many gallons were used? How many miles were driven? How many miles per gallon did his truck get?

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

initial mileage=24,033 miles.

cost to fill tank=$83.38

cost per gallon= $3.79

1. capacity of tank=83.38/3.79=22 gallons

remianing gas= 1/4*22= 5.5gal

gas used= 22-5.5= 16.5gal

new mileage= 24,297 miles.

mile covered= 24,297 miles.-24,033 miles.

=264miles

miles per gallon is =264/16.5

=16miles per gallon

Find four consecutive integers with the sum of -142
Akimi4 [234]

n, n + 1, n + 2, n + 3 - four consecutive integers

-142 - the sum

The equation:

n + (n + 1) + (n + 2) + (n + 3) = -142

n + n + 1 + n + 2 + n + 3 = -142

4n + 6 = -142     |subtract 6 from both sides

4n = -148    |divide both sides by 4

n = -37

n + 1 = -37 + 1 = -36

n + 2 = -37 + 2 = -35

n + 3 = -37 + 3 = -34

Answer: -37, -36, -35, -34.
