Answer: the efficiency of the first car is 25 miles per gallon.

the efficiency of the second car is 30 miles per gallon.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the efficiency of the first car.

Let y represent the efficiency of the second car.

Distance = car efficiency × number of gallons.

The first car consume 25 gallons of gas and the second consumed 15 gallons of gas. The two cars Drove a combined total of 1075 miles. It means that

25x + 15y = 1075- - - - - - - - - - -1

The sum of the fuel efficiencies was 55 miles per gallon. It means that

x + y = 55

Substituting x = 55 - y into equation 1, it becomes

25(55 - y) + 15y = 1075

1375 - 25y + 15y = 1075

- 25y + 15y = 1075 - 1375

- 10y = - 300

y = - 300/-10

y = 30

x = 55 - y = 55 - 30

x = 25
