Answer:

a) 2.5 gallons

b) 1.75 hours

c) $3.24/passenger

d) 73.33 feet/second

e) 11.11 cents/mile

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Gallons  - amount of gas used:

A = \frac{1\ gallon}{35\ miles}*87.5\ miles\\ A=2.5\ gallons

b) hours  - time spent on the trip

B = \frac{1\ hour}{50\ miles}*87.5\ miles\\ B=1.75\ hours

c) dollars/passenger  - amount spent per passenger on gas

C =\frac{\$3.89}{gallon}*2.5\ gallon*\frac{1}{3\ passengers}  \\ C=\$3.24\ /passenger

d) feet/second  - average speed of the trip

D=\frac{50\ miles}{hour}*\frac{hour}{3,600\ seconds}*\frac{5,280\ feet}{mile}\\  D=73.33\ feet/ second

e) cents/mile - money, in cents, spent per mile traveled

E =\frac{\$3.89}{gallon}*\frac{100\ cents}{\$} *2.5\ gallon*\frac{1}{87.5\ miles}  \\ E=11.11\ cents /mile

An automobile achieves a gas mileage of 30.5 mi/gal. how many kilometers can it travel on 1.5 l of gasoline?
Ksivusya [100]
Gas mileage = 30.5 mi/gal
Volume of gas = 1.5 l 

Note that 1 liter = 0.264172 gallons
Therefore
1.5 l = (1.5 l)*(0.264172 gal/l) = 0.3963 gal

Distance traveled is (Gas mileage, mi/gal)*(Gal of gas)
= (30.5)(0.3963) = 12.087 mi

Answer: 12 mi  (nearest integer)
