Answer:
Using the estimate:
The car has to go for 1,200 miles but it consumes a gallon of gasoline for every 30 miles. The number of gallons it will need is therefore:
= 1,200 / 30
= 40 gallons
Each gallon costs $3.00 so the total cost is:
= 40 * 3
= $120
Without using the estimate:
The car has to go for 1,211 miles but it consumes a gallon of gasoline for every 29 miles. The number of gallons it will need is therefore:
= 1,211 / 29
= 41.76 gallons
Each gallon costs $3.40 so the total cost is:
= 41.76 * 3.40
= $141.98
<em>Using the estimate provides a lower cost of gasoline for the trip. </em>
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Parallel lines have identical slopes and different y intercepts.
y = 3x + 2
y = 3x + 9
These lines are parallel with the same slopes (3) and different y intercepts (2 and 9)
49^(3/2)
This is the same as (sqrt49)^3
7^3 = 343
The answer is:
c = 7s
The Independent Variable is: s
The Dependent Variable is: c
