Mrs. Allan's car uses 8 gallons of gas for a 224-mile trip. Mrs. Owen's car uses 6 gallons of gas for a 210-mile trip. How many

Feliz [49]

Answer:

Mrs. Allan's Car will use 20 gallons of gas for 560 miles trip.

Mrs. Owen's Car will use 16 gallons of gas for 560 miles trip.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Number of Miles for Mrs Allan car = 224 miles

Number of gallons of gas required = 8

We need to find the number of gallons of gas required for 560 miles for Mrs. Allan's car.

First we will find, in 1 gallons how many miles does Mrs Allan's Car drives.

For 8 gallons = 224 miles

So for 1 gallons = Number of miles in 1 gallon of gas

By using Unitary method we get;

Number of miles in 1 gallon of gas = $\frac{224}{8}= 28\ miles$

Now we know that;

for 28 miles = 1 gallon of gas is required.

So for 560 miles = Number of gallon of gas required in 560 miles.

Again by using Unitary method we get;

Number of gallon of gas required in 560 miles = $\frac{560}{28}= 20\ gallons$

Hence Mrs. Allan's Car will use 20 gallons of gas for 560 miles trip.

Also Given:

Number of Miles for Mrs Owen's car = 210 miles

Number of gallons of gas required = 6

We need to find the number of gallons of gas required for 560 miles for Mrs. Owen's car.

First we will find, in 1 gallons how many miles does Mrs Owen's Car drives.

For 6 gallons = 210 miles

So for 1 gallons = Number of miles in 1 gallon of gas

By using Unitary method we get;

Number of miles in 1 gallon of gas = $\frac{210}{6}= 35\ miles$

Now we know that;

for 35 miles = 1 gallon of gas is required.

So for 560 miles = Number of gallon of gas required in 560 miles.

Again by using Unitary method we get;

Number of gallon of gas required in 560 miles = $\frac{560}{35}= 16\ gallons$

Hence Mrs. Owen's Car will use 16 gallons of gas for 560 miles trip.

A new car purchased for $27,000 loses 15% of its value each year.

Lady_Fox [76]

Multiply 27,000 x .85 (percentage of remaining value after 15% loss) raised to the 5th power (number of years) to get the answer

the value of the car in five years will be $11,980.04

Find the slope of the line that passes through these two points: (- 1, 0) and (4, - 2) .

I am Lyosha [343]

Slope is vertical change over horizontal change. Since coordinates conveniently give both the horizontal and vertical coordinates of a points, we can use the coordinates of both points to differentiate, or find the change horizontally and the change vertically between the two points.
