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!}
Answer: -2
Step-by-step explanation:
<h3>Answer:</h3>
A. y = -1/3x + 2 . . . . . . . . assuming a typo in your problem statement
<h3>Explanation:</h3>
The point (0, 2) is the y-intercept. This tells you the equation will be something of the form ...
... y = mx + 2 . . . . . . matching only answer choices A and C
_____
Knowing this, you can either substitute the values x=3, y=1 into these two equations to see which one works (it is not C), or you can look at the two points and determine the value of the slope.
The slope is ...
... (difference in y)/(difference in x) = (1-2)/(3-0) = -1/3 . . . . . matches choice A
The equation of the line is ...
... y = -1/3x + 2 . . . . . matches answer choice A
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
x = 10
x = 20 / 2
x = 4*5 / 2
