Step-by-step explanation:

987 → 789

987 - 789 = 198

876 → 678

876 - 678 = 198

765 → 567

765 - 567 = 198

654 → 456

654 - 456 = 198

543 → 345

543 - 345 = 198

432 → 234

432 - 234 = 198

321 → 123

321 - 123 = 198

Generally it is always like that:

3 ≤ x ≤ 9

100x + 10(x-1) + (x - 2) → 100(x - 2) + 10(x - 1) + x

(100x + 10(x - 1) + (x - 2)) - (100(x-2) + 10(x-1) + x)

= 100x + 10(x - 1) + (x - 2) - 100(x - 2) - 10(x - 1) - x   <em>cancel 10(x - 1)</em>

= 100x + x - 2 - 100x + 200 - x     <em>cancel 100x and x</em>

= 100 - 2

= 198

Camison's minnan gets 14 miles per gallon for city driving and 19 miles per gan
loris [4]

Answer:

<u>7 gallons were used for city driving and 17 gallons were used for highway driving</u>

Correct statement and question:

camison's minnan gets 14 miles per gallon for city driving and 19 miles per gallon for highway driving. At the beginning of the week, the 24-gallon tank was full. The family traveled 421 miles before running out of gas. How many gallons were used for city driving and  how many were used for highway driving?

Source:

Previous question found at brainly

Step-by-step explanation:

x = Gallons for city driving

24 - x = Gallons for highway driving

Miles drove before running out of gas = 421

Now let's solve for x, writing the following equation:

14x + 19 (24 - x) = 421

14x + 456 - 19x = 421

-5x = 421 - 456

-5x = - 35

x = -35/-5

x = 7 ⇒ 24 -x = 17

<u>7 gallons were used for city driving and 17 gallons were used for highway driving</u>
