im in middle school taking algebra 1 rn, but im pretty sure the equation is similar to 40x(40 pledges every mile) + 250(how much he already has from running) = y(the unknown variable).
so the equation would be 40x+250=y and you solve that to get the expression of how much he makes per mile
Answer:
Silver car
Step-by-step explanation:
It seems pretty hard but it's actually REALLY easy. gas mileage means the number of miles you can go on a particular amount of gallons. But the gallons have to be the same for both cars so that it's fair.
so let's go with 10 gallons. pretty broad number right?
so to get 12 gallons(the gallons for the blue car) to 10, We divide it by 12 then multiply it by 10. Try it yourself, (12/12)*10=???
then we do that to 384 (the miles for the blue car)
(384/12)*10=320
so 320 is the mileage for the first car. Repeat the steps for the silver car!
(14/14)*10=10
so then: (504/14)*10= 360.
So which is bigger, 320 or 360?
360 is bigger, meaning it has better gas mileage.
Answer:
5
Step-by-step explanation:
1. in order to calculate all the required values, it needed to solve:
2. x≥5 means, that x∈[5;+∞), where beginnig is '5'.
The answer is 19 because you have to divide them
