Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

70 miles * [1.6 km/mile] = 112 km

Notice when you multiply by km/mile by miles the miles cancel out.

1 gallon will get 112 km

x gallon will get 60 km

1/x = 112/60 cross multiply
1 * 60 = 112 * x divide by 112
60/112 = x switch
x = 60/112 Do the division
x = 0.54 Which rounds to 0.5

Answer:

We have the following given

mileage = 70 miles per gallon

distance = 60 km

Required: amount of fuel in gallons

First, we must convert the distance to miles, so

60 km (1 mi/1.6 km) = 37.5 mi

So, the amount of fuel is

37.5 mi / (70 mi/gal) = 0.54 gallon

What is the equation of the line that passes through (-5, 7) and is parallel to the line y = 4x + 5?

Marysya12 [62]

Answer:

y=4x+27

Step-by-step explanation:

If a line is parallel, it would have the same slope, so you already have that.

Now, you need the y-intercept of the second line. You already have one point, so use that point and the slope to find the y-int. What you can do (since you know you have to go up 4 and over 1, add a 1 to the -5 until you get to zero. your y-int would be 7+20 since you've gone up 5x4)

your final answer (i think) should be y=4x+27, but I could be wrong :))
