Answer:

5.6 miles per gallon

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation for Mrs Sanchez: y = 36x

The rate of change = miles/gallon for Mrs Sanchez = 36 miles/gallon

Let's find the rate of change for Mr White:

Rate of change = change in y/change in x

Using two pairs of values form the table given, (2.5, 76) and (5, 152),

Rate of change = (152 - 76)/(5 - 2.5) = 76/2.5

Rate of change = miles/gallon = 30.4 miles/gallon

The difference between the miles per gallon of Mrs Sanchez and Mr White = 36 - 30.4 = 5.6 miles per gallon.

Therefore, Mrs Sanchez gets 5.6 miles per gallon than Me White

How do you find scale factor

Lerok [7]

First, a scale factor is the ratio of the corresponding sides in two similar geometric figures.

To find the scale factor:
1. Locate two corresponding sides (one on each figure).
2. Write the ratio of one length to the other.
And there you go! That's the scale figure from one figure to the other

Hope that helps and correct me if I'm wrong!
