Question

Scott loves to take his truck on road trips. He decides to take his first road trip from Syracuse to Miami. The trip is 1,419 miles each way. If Scott averages 65 miles per hour, how long will it take, to the nearest tenth, for him to get there? If Scott gets 13 miles to the gallon, how many gallons of gas will he use to get there?
If gas costs him $3.62 a gallon, how much will he pay for gas on the way down?
What will the round trip cost him?
