Answer:
9x^2y^2
Step-by-step explanation:
Ok so to find the area of a square we have to square the side length. So 3xy*3xy = 9x^2y^2 because 3*3=9, x*x=x^2, and y*y=y^2.
we know that
the car gets 18 miles per -----------> 1 gallon of gasoline
so
for 543 miles ---------------------> x gallons of gasoline
by proportion
543/18=x/1---------->x=543/18------->x=30.17 gallons
therefore
the answer is
30.17 gallons
/ also means division so the answer is 42.75
