Answer: 492 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

The first thing to do in such a question is to find out the number of miles Violet can go on 1 gallon.

That figure is:

= 369 / 12

= 30.75 miles per gallon

With 16 gallons therefore, she can go:

= 16 * 30.75

= 492 miles

-------------------------------\\\\
\begin{array}{llll}
\stackrel{frequency}{f}\textit{ of a vibrating string varies directly}\\
\qquad \qquad \textit{with the square root of the tension }\stackrel{tension}{t}
\end{array}$

$\bf f=k\sqrt{t}\quad \textit{we also know that }
\begin{cases}
f=300\\
t=8
\end{cases}\implies 300=k\sqrt{8}
\\\\\\
\cfrac{300}{\sqrt{8}}=k\implies \cfrac{300}{\sqrt{2^2\cdot 2}}=k\implies \cfrac{300}{2\sqrt{2}}=k\implies \cfrac{150}{\sqrt{2}}=k
\\\\\\
\textit{and we can \underline{rationalize} it to }\cfrac{150\sqrt{2}}{2}\implies 75\sqrt{2}=k$

$\bf thus\qquad f=\stackrel{k}{75\sqrt{2}}\sqrt{t}\implies \boxed{f=75\sqrt{2t}}\\\\
-------------------------------\\\\
\textit{now, when t = 72, what is \underline{f}?}\qquad f=75\sqrt{2(72)}$
