≅ 2.4444444
Step-by-step explanation:
Add: -19 + 9 = -10
Absolute value: abs(the result of step No. 1) = abs(-10) = 10
Divide: the result of step No. 2 / 3 = 10 / 3 = 3.3333333333333 = 10/
3
Subtract: 14 - 22 = -8
Absolute value: abs(the result of step No. 4) = abs(-8) = 8
Divide: the result of step No. 5 / 9 = 8 / 9 = 0.88888888888889 = 8/
9
Subtract: the result of step No. 3 - the result of step No. 6 = 10/

Answer:
( 2 - x )^2
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
a) 91 1/6 gallons
b) 2502 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
You are given a number of miles and a number of gallons for the car. The ratio of these numbers is ...
(261 mi)/(14.5 gal) = 18 mi/gal
We presume this value is constant for this car. Then the questions can be answered by forming and solving a proportion:
a) 1641 miles/(gallons) = 18 mi/(1 gal)
Multiplying by gallons and dividing by 18 mi/gal, we get
1641/18 gal = (gallons) = 91 1/6 gal
It will take 91 1/6 gallons of gasoline for Mary to drive to her friend's house.
___
b) Same deal, but the miles are unknown.
(miles)/(139 gal) = (18 mi)/(1 gal)
Multiplying by 139 gal gives ...
(18 mi)·139 = (miles) = 2502 mi
139 gallons of gasoline will let Mary drive 2502 miles.
