Answer:

(12,1.625)

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the given statement:

Cost of gas per gallon = $6

Cost of diesel per gallon = $8

Cost of x gallon gas  = 6x

Cost of y gallon diesel = 8y

You have at most $85 to spend on fuel

Therefore the equation we get is:

6x+8y≤85

You must purchase at least 12 gallons of gas for your car

x≥12

Plot the graph and you get possible solutions:

(12,1.625)..

The scale on a map is 2cm =25 miles Dave measured the distance to the next town 5cm How many miles away is the next town
denis-greek [22]

First we need to find the measurement for 1 centimetre. To do this, we need to divide the given amount of miles (25) by the given number of centimetres (2).

25 / 2 = 12.5

1 cm = 12.5 miles

Now we need to find the distance of the next town.

If the next town is 5 cm, and 1 cm is 12.5 miles, we need to multiply 12.5 by 5.

12.5 * 5 = 62.5

<h3>So the next town is 62.5 miles away!</h3>

If you are asked to round this to the nearest whole number, it would be 63 miles.

Hope this helped! <em>Brainliest? :)</em>
