Answer:

You will have 3 oil changes.

Step-by-step explanation:

The automaker of your new car recommends an oil change after the first 5,000 miles and every 3,000 miles there after.

Considering 52 weeks in a year.

You plan to drive the car 250 miles a week means you drive for [tex]250\times52=13000[/tex] miles per year.

So, you will have 1st change at 5000 miles.

Now after 5000 miles you have 1 oil change.

[tex]13000-5000= 8000[/tex] miles  (remaining)

Then second change at 3000 miles.

[tex]8000-3000=5000[/tex] miles

Then again third change at 3000 miles.

[tex]5000-3000=2000[/tex] miles  

Hence, you will have 3 oil changes.
