Answer: 278.30 pounds (if the gasoline does not contain ethanol)
317.12 pounds (if the gasoline does contain ethanol)
Step-by-step explanation:
If the truck averages 12 miles per gallon, then in 170 miles it consumes:
170mi/12mi = 14.17 gallons.
We know that for one gallon consumed, the carbon dioxide emitted into the atmosphere is 19.64 pounds. (assuming it does not contain ethanol)
Then for 14.17 gallons consumed, we have a emission of:
14.17*19.64 pounds = 278.30 pounds
I the gasoline contains ethanlol, for a gallon the emiision is around 22.38 pounds.
In this case the total emission is:
14.17*22.38 pounds = 317.12 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
Jonas = 60 pounds
Jane = 70 pounds
Remember- 5 or more, raise the score. 4 or less, let it rest.
Jonas is 63 pounds. 3 is less than 4, so rounded to the nearest ten would be 60 pounds.
Meanwhile, Jane is 67 pounds. 7 is more than 5, so we will raise the score.
So, 67 rounded to the nearest ten would be 70.
You have your answers. 60 and 70. Hope this helps!
Answer:
6 : 1
Step-by-step explanation:
b - 3a / 9 = a /3
Cross multiply
3(b - 3a) = 9a
Expand
3b - 9a = 9a
Add 9a to both sides
3b = 9a + 9a
3b = 18a
Divide both sides by 3
b = 6a
Ratio of a : b
6 : 1
