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>

If a position on the ocean floor is 12 kilometers below the sea level, which value describes the elevation of the ocean floor
LenKa [72]

Answer:

- 12

Step-by-step explanation:

The sea level serves as a reference point and may be used to describe objacetsvir positions above or below it. Therefore, the sea level is regarded as a zero point or level. Hence, objects below are describes to be at a negative distance while those above are assigned the positive sign. Hence, for a position which is 12 km below sea level, then the object is said to be at a distance of - 12 km (below sea level takes the negative sign.)
