Preliminary Problem
Givens
Miles = m = 392 miles
Gallons = G = 14 gallons
Miles per gallon = mpg
Formula
miles = miles per gallon * number of gallons.
Solve
392 = mpg * 14 Divide by 14
392 / 14 = mpg
28 = mpg which is really quite good. Our vehicle gets 44 mpg but it's a 4 cylinder. It's meant to get that kind of milage.
Part A
Let x = the number of gallons used
Let y = the number of miles driven
y = k*x
Part B
y = k* x
k =28 mpg
11700 = 28*x
11700 /28 = x
x = 417.86
If this is incorrect please put some more facts in. The question does not seem complete.
24x+8x= 32x
32x-11x=21x
21x=-7-14
-7-14=-21
21x=-21

Answer:
0.6 feet in half a day
Step-by-step explanation:
If it grows 1.2 feet in 1 full day, then half of that 1.2÷2=0.6

Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
Perpendicular lines have slopes which are the negative reciprocal of each other. To find the slope, convert 3x-5y=8 into y=mx+b form.
3x-5y=8
-5y = -3x +8
y = 3/5 x - 8/5
The slope is 3/5 so its perpendicular slope is -5/3. Write the equation of this line through the point (3,7) using point slope form. Then simplify into y=mx+b form.
