The boat uses 4 gallons to travel 6 miles. Traveling 4 times as far is expected to require 4 times the gas.
4 gallons = 6 miles
Multiply by 4.
16 gallons = 24 miles
⇒ 16 gallons
A= 0.25 or 1/4
Hope this helps:)
]Eigenvectors are found by the equation

implying that

. We then can write:
And:
Gives us the characteristic polynomial:

So, solving for each eigenvector subspace:
![\left [ \begin{array}{cc} 4 & 2 \\ 5 & 1 \end{array} \right ] \left [ \begin{array}{c} x \\ y \end{array} \right ] = \left [ \begin{array}{c} -x \\ -y \end{array} \right ]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cleft%20%5B%20%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bcc%7D%204%20%26%202%20%5C%5C%205%20%26%201%20%5Cend%7Barray%7D%20%5Cright%20%5D%20%5Cleft%20%5B%20%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bc%7D%20x%20%5C%5C%20y%20%5Cend%7Barray%7D%20%5Cright%20%5D%20%3D%20%5Cleft%20%5B%20%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bc%7D%20-x%20%5C%5C%20-y%20%5Cend%7Barray%7D%20%5Cright%20%5D%20)
Gives us the system of equations:
Producing the subspace along the line

We can see then that 3 is the answer.
R = 16 according to the problem, so the total amount of income will be:
$20*16 + $15*(40 - 16)
= $320 + <span>$15*(24)
= </span>$320 + <span>$360
= $680
that is the income, but the expenses are $275 so the total revenue is the subtraction of those two
total revenue = $680 - $275
= $405</span>
