To determine the number of gallons of gasoline that is used, we need to know the rate of usage of gasoline. This rate would describe the number of gasoline in units of volume that is being used per distance in units of length. In this case, we need the rate in units of miles per gallon. From what is asked and the given values, we simply divide the rate to the the total distance that was traveled by the car. We calculate as follows:
Gallons of gasoline = 293 miles / 57 miles / gallon
Gallons of gasoline = 5.14 gallons
Therefore, about 5 gallons of gasoline was consumed by the hybrid car for a distance of 57 miles.
We have to give counter example for the given statement:
"The difference between two integers is always positive"
This statement is not true. As integers is the set of numbers which includes positive and as well as negative numbers including zero.
Consider any two integers say '2' and '-8'. Now, let us consider the difference between these two integers.
So, 2 - 8
= -6 which is not positive.
Therefore, it is not necessary that the difference of two integers is only positive. The difference of two integers can be positive, negative or zero.
The answer is C 16 I believe
So, what I did was multiply 33*6 and got 198 and then 228-198 to find out that the initial fee was 30 dollars. then multiply 33*9+30 to get a 9 month total cost of $327. Hope from here you are able to set up your equation now you have all the information needed :)
