Question

Suppose that you can save $50 by buying your car in a different city. if the trip requires only $10 in gasoline, is the trip worthwhile? why or why not?

Answer 1

Yes the trip is worthwhile. If you save $50, but it takes you $10 in gas o get theready & $10 in gas to get back you still have $30 saved.

Answer 2

Answer: The answer is YES.

Step-by-step explanation: Given that we can save $50 by buying car in a different city. We are to check whether the trip is worthwhile or not if it requires $10 in gasoline.

Since we require $10 for gasoline for the trip, so the total savings in buying car in a different city will be given by

S = $50 - $10 = $40.

Therefore, we will save $40 if we buy the car in a different city.

Thus implies that the trip will surely be worthwhile, because we will be saving some amount of money.

Thus, the answer is YES, the trip is worthwhile.
