Answer:
The Answer is B.
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.
Add all the times together:
10 + 25 + 15 = 50 minutes total.
For the ratio divide the time for weights by total time:
25/50 which reduces to 1/2
The ratio is 1/2
Convert to an equation:
50^2=2+25^2=2*5=10
Simplify:
2500=625=10=10
What is wrong is that 2500 does not equal 625 which does not equal 10.
For Perimeter you add all the sides of the figure and the total is your perimeter. For Area you multiply the length times the width.
