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

Answer:

This explanation is not correct

Explanation:

Significance level is the probability that the null hypothesis rejected is in fact true. If we say there is a significance level of 0.10 or 10%(α=0.10 level) then there is a 10% chance of incorrectly rejecting the null hypothesis when there is actually no difference.

If we wish to reach a conclusion on rejection or acceptance of the null hypothesis, we could use the p value(the probability that observed results or more extremee results are true given null hypothesis)which we compare with the significance level to conclude. If the significance level is 0.10 and p value is 0.07(since p value is less than significance level) , we reject the null hypothesis and vice versa.

It would be 2.9 because if the number to the right of the number your rounding is 5 or higher you round up to the next number. If the number is 4 or lower you round down to a 0.
