For number 16 we need to write the data as a ratio then convert to a unit rate (amount per 1)...
308/14 = x/1
Cross multiply
14x = 308
x = 308/14
x = 22
So the fuel efficiency is
22 miles per 1 gallon or
22/1
For number 17, since the car was driven at 48 mph, we just have to divide distance driven by speed to get how long it took...
288 miles ÷ 48 mph =
6 hours
We can set up the width a X and, from the description the length would be 3X-1. The perimeter of a rectangle is determined by 2XL + 2Xw. Plugging into the equation 2(3X-1) + 2(X) = 118. Next distribute to get 6X-2 + 2X = 118. Combine like terms to get 8X = 120. Divide by 8 to get X = 15. The width is 15. The length is 3(15)-1 or 44. 88 +30 = 118
