You are running a fuel economy study. One of the cars you find is blue. It can travel 30 and one half miles30 1 2 miles on 1 and one fourth gallons1 1 4 gallons of gasoline. Another car is red. It can travel 25 and three fifths miles25 3 5 miles on four fifths gallon 4 5 gallon of gasoline. What is the unit rate for miles per gallon for each car? Which car could travel the greater distance on 1 gallon1 gallon of gasoline?
Blue car: 30.5 / 1.25 =24.4 miles per gallon
Red car: 25.6/0.80 =32 miles per gallon
You can easily see that the Red car travel farther on 1 gallon of gasoline.
312/17
= (306+6)/ 17
= 306/17+ 6/17
= 18+ 6/17
= 18 6/17
The final answer is 18 6/17~
Answer:
$24,498,509.74
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula for the value as a function of time is ...
V(t) = P·e^(rt)
Filling in the numbers and doing the arithmetic, we have ...
V(35) = 3,000,000·e^(0.06·35) ≈ 24,498,509.74
Compounded continuously for 35 years, the investment will be worth $24,498,509.74.
