Answer:
12g=m
12 is the mpg
g represents one gallon being used
m represents the total miles travelled after them being multiplied together
14. Range=22 Mean= 31.2
15. Range=33 Mean= 88.2
16. Range= 81 Mean= 161.3
To find range you take the smallest number and the largest number and subtract them. To find mean you add all of the totals together and then divide by how many numbers are given.
A) x * 7 = y
B) y + 7 +1 = 9x
A) x = y / 7
Substituting this into B)
B) y + 8 = 9(y/7)
Multiplying both sides by 7
B) 7y + 56 = 9y
2 y = 56
y = 28
x = 4
***************************************************
Double Check
4 * 7 = 28 + 7 = 35
9*x = 36
