Verdich [7]

Answer:

22 more gallons.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Car A's fuel efficiency is 34 miles per gallon of gasoline.

Car B's fuel efficiency is 23 miles per gallon of gasoline.

Question asked:

At those rates, how many more gallons of gasoline would car B consume than car A on a 1,564 miles trip?

Solution:

Car A's fuel efficiency is 34 miles per gallon of gasoline.

By unitary method:

Car A can travel 34 miles in = 1 gallon

Car A can travel 1 mile in = $\frac{1}{34} \ gallon$

Car A can travel 1564 miles in = $\frac{1}{34} \times1564=46\ gallons$

Car B's fuel efficiency is 23 miles per gallon of gasoline.

Car B can travel 23 miles in = 1 gallon

Car B can travel 1 mile in = $\frac{1}{23} \ gallon$

Car B can travel 1564 mile in = $\frac{1}{23} \times1564=68\ gallons$

We found that for 1564 miles trip Car A consumes 46 gallons of gasoline while Car B consumes 68 gallons of gasoline that means Car B consumes 68 - 46 = 22 gallons more gasoline than Car A.

Thus, Car B consumes 22 more gallons of gasoline than Car A consumes.

There were 442 students at Deerlake Middle School who voted on a theme for the spring carnival. Those who voted represent 76% of

never [62]

Answer:

Option C is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of students of Deerlake middle school that voted = 442

Percentage of student that voted = 76%

Let x be the total number of student.

According to the Question,

$\frac{76}{100}\times x=442$

$x=442\times\frac{100}{76}$

$x=582$

Therefore, Option C is correct.

The table shows the distance Allison drove on one day of her vacation. Is the relationship between the distance and the time a p

Anuta_ua [19.1K]

Answer:

we conclude that the relationship between distance and time is NOT proportional.

Hence, she did not drive at a constant speed.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that when 'y' varies directly with 'x', we get the equation

y ∝ x

y = kx

k = y/x

where 'k' is called the constant of proportionality.

In our case, the table shows the distance Allison drove on one day of her vacation.

Time (h) 1 2 3 4 5

Distance (mi) 55 100 165 280 250

using the equation

k = y/x

susbtitute y = 55, x = 1

k = 55/1 = 55

substitute y = 100, x = 2

k = y/x

k = 100 / 2 = 50

substitute y = 165, x = 3

k = y/x

k = 165 / 3 = 55

substitute y = 280, x = 4

k = y/x

k = 280 / 4 = 70

substitute y = 250, x = 5

k = y/x

k = 250 / 5 = 50

It is clear that the value of 'k' does not remain constant.

Therefore, we conclude that the relationship between distance and time is NOT proportional.

Hence, she did not drive at a constant speed.
