With $17.50 she can get 11 2/3 gallons. 11 (she just got) + 8 (that she had) = 19 gallons. 19 x 27 MPG = 513 Miles.
27 divided by 3 = 9 (9 is a third of the MPG) 9 x 2 (since it was 2 thirds that were left) = 18
In total she can drive 531 miles.
Hope this answer helps you! If it did, please mark it as the brainiest! I would really appreciate it! :)
X/2+1=y subtract 1 from both sides
x/2=y-1 multiply both sides by 2
x=2y-2
Answer:
18.44%
Step-by-step explanation:
Let :
Percentage who rode bus to work last year = x
Percentage who ride bus to work this year = 27.1%
Percentage who ride bus to work this year = [percentage who rode bus to work last year + 47% of percentage who rode bus to work last year]
Mathematically ;
27.1% = x + 47% of x
0.271 = x + (0.47x)
0.271 = x + 0.47x
0.271 = 1.47x
x = 0.271 / 1.47
x = 0.1843537
x = 0.1843537 * 100%
x = 18.435%
x = 18.44%
