Answer:

9.9 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem, we need to cross multiply. Lets input the values (250, 275, 9) as shown below:

\frac{9}{250}  = \frac{x}{275}

Next we cross multiply. We multiply 250 and x, and we multiply 9 and 275.

250(x) = 250x\\

275(9) = 2,475

Now, lets put the values above back into the equation:

250x = 2,475

Lets solve this equation. First we divide 2,475 by 250, making x by itself.

\frac{2,475}{250} =x

9.9 = x

This means that to drive 275 miles, Kala would need to use 9.9 gallons of gas.

The value of y varies directly with x, and y=28 when x=7. Find y when x=4 by first finding k.
lesya692 [45]
Direct proportionality is the type of proportionality where an increase in one quantity or variable causes a corresponding increase in another quantity. 
Therefore; y varies directly as x
Hence; y α x
             y =k x where k is a constant 
if y= 28 and x = 7 , then k = 28/4 =4
hence, y = 4 k
when x = 4, then y= 16

S_A_V [24]
Let the number of reptiles on endangered list be 'x'

2x + 16=158

2x=158-16

2x=142

x=71

So there are 71 reptiles on the endangered list
