A family is planning a driving vacation and is estimating the price of gasoline. While on the vacation, the family plans to drive 3,000 miles. The car gets about 25 miles per gallon, and the cost of gasoline is $1.66 per gallon. Which of the following is the estimate for cost of gasoline for the vacation?

Here, the athlete runs 6 miles in 51 minutes, which can be expressed as:

Now, in 90 minutes, the athlete will cover about

Therefore, the athlete runs about 10.6 miles in 90 minutes.

from the provided table, the first option represents the amount of gas in gallons while the second column shows the distance in miles. Thus, (6, 144) will denote that the car can 144 miles by consuming 6 gallons of a gas.

We are given a mix of fractions and decimals and to compare the numbers, we convert the given decimals to fractions.

4.4 becomes 44/10

4.25 becomes 425/100

Now the set of fractions for comparison are: 9/2, 10/3, 44/10, and 425/100. The least common denominator for 2, 3 and 10 is 300. Then,

9/2*300=1350

10/3*300=1000

44/10*300=1320

425/10*300=1275

From the above products, 9/2 gives the greatest value when the fractions are compared with the least common denominator of the given denominators.

we use the US customary system of units’ equivalent to convert from yards to inches. We know that 1yard=3 ft, and 1 ft =12 inches.

First, convert 2 ¾ into an improper fraction.

Then,

to solve for x, we order like terms together and proceed as follows:

4x-3-5x=24

Add 3 to both sides of the equation

4x-3+3-5x=24+3

4x+3-3-5x=27

4x-5x=27

-x=27

Divide both sides by -1

-x/-1=27/-1

x= -27

Thus, the unknown value of x is -27

A teaspoon can approximately hold 5 mL.

Although the capacity of a teaspoon could be more or less, choice D remains the most correct answer as the other choices have amounts too much for a small teaspoon.

In the simple interest, we utilize the following formula to find the simple interest after a period of time in years.

I=P*r*t

I is the interest

P=Principal or initial deposit

r=rate

t=time in years

From the given problem, P=$600, r=6%=6/100=0.06, t=5 years. Then

I=$600*0.06*5=$180

After 5 years, Pat will earn an interest of $180.

we are asked to change 400 mg to g. We use the conversion 1g=1000mg, which we can write as:

So, 400 mg to g becomes

Looking at the given trend, it is observed that the price increases with years. From 2008 to 2012, the price is fairly constant but we expect it to be more than $130,000 in the year 2016. The expected price in 2016 is $140,000.

We can interpret ‘cannot exceed” as less than ‘<’. Therefore, in our inequality, the symbol < must be included. Now let’s convert the word problem into a mathematical inequality.

Money spent on supplies=s

Money spent on textbooks=t

Total money spent=money spent on supplies + money spent on textbooks

Total money spent = s+t

But the money spent cannot exceed $12,000. Then,

s+t <$12,000.
However the money spent can still be equal to $12000, as it has not exceeded it.

Therefore, therequired inequality is s + t <= $12,000.
