Martin and three of his friends take turns driving on a trip. The gas mileage for their car ranges from 28.94 to 24.56 miles per

gallon. Each friend drives between 58 and 64 miles, so Martin estimates they will need about 7 gallons of fuel for their trip. Is this a reasonable estimate?
A. No, the estimate should be higher.
B. No, the estimate should be lower.

Answer:

A. No, the estimate should be higher

Step-by-step explanation:

To determine the maximum number of gallons of fuel the car can consume, we express this as;

Maximum miles driven=highest consumption per gallon×Maximum gallons

where;

Maximum miles driven per person=64 mile

Maximum miles driven=64×4=256 miles

highest consumption per gallon=24.56 miles per gallon

Maximum gallons=g

replacing;

256=24.56×g

24.56 g=256

g≥256/24.56=10.42 gallons

g≥10.42 gallons

No, the estimate should be higher

find three consecutive even integers such that the sum of the smallest integer and twice the median integer is 20more than the l
3241004551 [841]
X = smallest; x + 2 = middle, and x + 4 = largest
x + 2(x+2) = 20 + x + 4
x + 2x + 4=24 +x
3x + 4 = 24 + x
2x = 20
x = 10
so the three integers are 10, 12, and 14

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE HELP!!

Okay I'll try to show it step by step

Step 1. So first you need to recognise that the diagram is a right angled triangle, with the right angle being at the bottom. This means we can do Pythagoras' Theorem.

Step 2. Now that you know you can use Pythagoras' Theorem, you can apply it. If you don't know, the theorem is a² + b² = c², with, in this case, a being 5 and b being 8. This means we can do 5² + 8² = 25 + 64 = 89.

Step 3. From the previous step, we now know that the length of the side including x is √89, and because we know that part of this side is 3, if we subtract 3 from √89 we get the value of x, so: √89 - 3 = 9.434 - 3 = 6.434, which is your answer.

I hope this helps!
