Answer:
A. 8 gallons
B. Drive by car is $59.4 cheaper than travel by train
Step-by-step explanation:
According to the scenario, given data are as follows,
Total drive = 400 miles
Total drive per gallon = 50 miles
Fuel cost per gallon = $4.45
A. So, Total fuel required to drive 400 miles can be calculated as follows,
Total fuel required = Total drive ÷ Total drive per gallon
By putting value, we get,
Total fuel required = 400 ÷ 50
= 8 gallons
B. Total cost if drive by car = 8 gallons × $4.45 = $35.6
Cost if travel by train = $95
Hence it is clearly shows that drive by car is much cheaper than travel by train.
Cost saved by travel by car = $95 - $35.6 = $59.4
So, drive by car is $59.4 cheaper than travel by train.
There are 6 numbers on each die.
The total number of out comes is 6 x 6 = 36.
To get a sum of 4, the combinations are: 1 & 3, 2 & 2 or 3 & 1.
To get a sum of 8, the combinations are: 1 & 7, 2 & 6, 3 & 5, 4 & 4, 7 & 1, 6 & 2, 5 & 3
The total of those combinations are: 3 + 7 = 10 total combinations of a sum of either 4 or 8.
The probability of either is 10/36, which can be reduced to 5/18.
