Gas mileage is the number of miles you can drive on a gallon of gasoline. A test of a new car results in 430 miles on 10 gallons of gas. How far could you drive on 55 gallons of gas? What is the car's gas mileage?

With 55 gallons of gass the car is able to travel 2,365 miles. Its mileage is 43 miles per gallon.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the car ran 430 miles on 10 gallons of gas, we can calculate its mileage by dividing the distance traveled by the amount of gas used, so:

If he had 55 gallons of gas on the tank, then he'll be able to travel:

With 55 gallons of gass the car is able to travel 2,365 miles. Its mileage is 43 miles per gallon.

complete the steps to find the area of the trapezoid.

area of rectangle = 256   square units

area of triangle 1 = 24  square units

area of triangle 2 = 16  square units

area of triangle 3 =   96 square units

area of trapezoid = 120  square units

step-by-step explanation:

a) y = -3x +2

b) y = 1/2x -6

these 2 can be combined into one equation.

-3x +2 = .5x -6

8 = 3.5x

x = 8 / 3.5 = 2.2857142857

y = -3 * (8 / 3.5) +2

y = (-24 / 3.5) + 2

y = -4.8571428571
