Answer:
Approximately 50 pounds less carbon (in CO₂) will be produced by the second auto on this trip.
Step-by-step explanation:
We have been given that the combustion of one gallon of automobile fuel produces about 5 pounds of carbon (in CO₂). Two autos are making a trip of 600 miles.
Let us find amount of fuel used by autos by dividing the total distance by their mileage.






Let us find the difference of fuel used by both autos.


Since one gallon of automobile fuel produces about 5 pounds of carbon, so 10 gallons of fuel will produces
pounds of carbon.
Since 2nd auto used 10 gallons less than 1st auto, therefore, 2nd auto will produce 50 pounds less carbon than 1st auto.
It is now possible to find the margin of error, the reason being that the confidence level is not given. However the 'standard error' of the sample mean can be found as follows:

Converted to a percentage, we get 1.11% which is the third choice of answer.
The answer is D becuase 18 plus 6 is twenty four
16.7 inches is 0.464 yards
