Ok so => 8a + a -3 = 6a -2a -3
9a - 3 = 4a -3
-3 on both sides is gone so 9a = 4a
9a - 4a =0 => 5a = 0 so a=0

A truck uses 1 tablespoon of gasoline to drive 125 yards. How many miles can the vehicle travel per gallon?

Alborosie

Answer:

18.18 miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

A truck uses 1 tablespoon of gasoline to drive 125 yards.

Now, 1 gallon of gasoline contains 256 tablespoons of gasoline.

So, the truck uses 1 gallon i.e. 256 tablespoons of gasoline to drive (256 × 125) = 32000 yards.

Now, 1-mile distance contains 1760 yards.

Therefore, the truck uses 1 gallon of gasoline to drive $\frac{32000}{1760} = 18.18$ miles. (Answer)
