A van travels 260 miles on 13 gallons of gas. Find how many gallons the van needs to travel 500 miles?
1 answer:
Answer:
25 gallons
Step-by-step explanation:
Assuming miles-per-gallon is a constant, the amount of gas is proportional to the miles driven:
gallons/(500 mi) = (13 gal)/(260 mi)
gallons = (500 mi)/(260 mi)(13 gal) . . . . multiply by 500 mi
gallons = 25 gal . . . . do the arithmetic
The van will need 25 gallons of gas to go 500 miles.

Answer: the answer should be D
Step-by-step explanation:
False it is roughly 3.74 so it is less than 5. Becuase

if thats what ur asking lol
" the sum " means add
the sum of 8 and a number...
8 + n <== ur expression
parallel = same slope
y=1/5x-4
slope= 1/5x
solve using for b using y=mx+b
-4=(1/5)(5)+b
-4=4+b
(subtract -4 from both sides)
-8=b
put your equation together:
y=1/5x-8
Not sure, there is no graph with it. I just edited the question to fix the formatting and to add in info that got cut off when iI pasted it in.
