Answer:
sedan = 26 miles/gallon
truck = 17 miles/gallon
Step-by-step explanation:
try to write the text in mathematical format as a system of equations
t=truck s=sedan
first equation can be written as
t= (181-5s)/3
we can use it in the second equation and rewrite it as
7[(181-5s)/3]+6s = 275
7(181/3 -5/3s) + 6s = 275
1267/3 - 35/3s + 6s = 275
-35/3s + 18/3s = 275-1267/3
-35/3s + 18/3s = 825/3 - 1267/3
-35s + 18s = 825 -1267
-17s = -442 s = 442/17 = 26 sedan has an average of 26 miles/gallon
we use this value of s in the first equation
3t + 5*26=181 3t=181-130 t= 51/3 = 17 truck has an average of 17 miles/gallon
