The problem does not clearly give us the distance from Buffalo to Chicago, so let this be x (in mile) just so I can show you how the total cost is solved.
The total cost is equal to the sum of the rental fee plus the cost of the additional fee per mile which is equal to 1.50x, and also of the cost of the gasoline which is equal to (x/16)(2.15). Thus, the final answer should be expressed as,
total cost = 29.95 + 1.5x + 2.15x/16
When the distance is available, this should be easily substituted in the equation above.

225 g flour

Pachacha [2.7K]

If she needs to use 225g of flour for each cake and wants to make 18 cakes she will need 4050g (225x18=4050) of flour but she only has 360g which is obviously not enough flour. For one cake she needs 75g of sugar and since she needs to make 18 cakes she needs 1350g (75x18=1350) of sugar. She only has 135g so it’s not enough.

Troyanec [42]

For this case we propose a system of equations:

x: Variable that represents the amount of hours that Olivia's mother drove

y: Variable that represents the amount of hours that Olivia's father drove

So, we have:

$x + y = 14\\65x + 60y = 895$
