Answer:
x = 325 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
1) 28.4 miles per gallon
2) 34 miles per gallon
3) the red car
Step-by-step explanation:
Blue car:
Travels 35 1/2 miles on 1 1/4 gallons of gasoline
Red car:
Travels 27 1/5 miles on 4/5 gallons of gasoline
We want to know the unit rate for miles per hour, and to do it we have to divide the miles they travel by the gallons each car uses:
Blue car:
(35 1/2) / (1 1/4) = 28.4 miles per gallon
Red car:
(27 1/5) / (4/5) = 34 miles per gallon
The red car travels greater distance with 1 gallon of gasoline {and thats about it!}
The quotient is -8. This being because when a negative number is in parentheses, the negative will be the opposite: Positive. And we know 48 divided by 6 is 8. So the answer is B.
Hope this helps !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
