Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

One of the cars are blue. it can travel 31 1/2 miles on 1 1/4 gallons of gasoline. Converting 31 1/2 miles to decimal, it becomes 31.5 miles. Converting 1 1/4 gallons of gasoline to decimal, it becomes 1.25 gallons of gasoline.

Therefore, the miles per gallon for the blue car is

31.5/1.25 = 25.2 miles per gallon.

Another car is red it can travel 28 4/5 miles on 4/5 gallon of gasoline.

Converting 28 4/5 miles to decimal, it becomes 28.8 miles. Converting 4/5 gallons of gasoline to decimal, it becomes 0.8 gallons of gasoline.

Therefore, the miles per gallon for the red car is

28.8/0.8 = 36 miles per gallon.

Answer:

a. No (see below)

b. (see below)

c. Johnny

d. Johnny = $12.50 / hour      Doug = $9.16... / hour

e. Doug: extend the table to show how much he gets paid for 1 hour of work (the unit rate)

Johnny: already on the graph

Step-by-step explanation:

a. No. This is because a proportional relationship would have a certain ratio between payment and the amount of time spent working, which would not change. However, if Doug's neighbour pays him $55 for 6 hours, it's likely that this is not a proportional relationship, or we would be able to divide $55 by the 6 hours Doug spent working.

b. Even though above I said that it's probably not a proportional relationship, if it were, we would have to divide everything equally. I'm guessing the table should look like this:

                            Doug

       Time (hr)                      Earnings ($)

          4                                  $36.66...

          5                                  $45.8333...

          6                                  $55

          7                                  $64.4666....

          8                                  $73.333...

To work out how much Doug would get for working 4 hours:

4/6 x $55 = 2/3 x $55 = $36.66... (so definitely not a proportional relationship)

To work out how much Doug would get for working 5 hours:

5/6 x $55 = $45.8333.... (more evidence that this is not a proportional relationship)

To work out how much Doug would get for working 7 hours (we already got 6 hours):

7/6 x $55 = $64.4666...

To work out how much Doug would get for working 8 hours:

8/6 x $55 = $73.33... (we could double the 4 hour payment, but this is probably more accurate)

c. Johnny is getting paid more. If we look at how much Doug gets for 6 hours, it's $55. If we look out at how much Johnny gets for 6 hours, it's $75. (If we do the same with the other amounts of time, it's the same.

4 hours: D = $36.67 vs J = $50

5 hours: D = $45.83 VS J = $60

etc...

d. Johnny gets $75 per 6 hours --> 75/6 = $12.50 per hour

Doug gets $55 per 6 hours --> 55/6 = $9.1666... per hour

e. Carry on the table for Doug all the way to 1, so you can see the how much Doug gets paid for 1 hour of work (i.e. the minimum).

The unit rate is already on the graph for Johnny.

HOPE THIS HELPED :)

P.S. Mate cld you please give me Brainliest? That table took so much dam work
