Answer:
B. 46n = 350
C. Approximately 7.61 gallons
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Let's review the information given to us to answer the question correctly:
Miles per gallon of the hybrid car = 46
Distance of the trip = 350 miles
2. What equation represents this situation? How many gallons of gas will Madeline need?
Let's write the equation to answer the question as follows:
Number of gallons for the trip = Distance of the trip/Miles per gallon of the hybrid car
Number of gallons for the trip = 350/46
Number of gallons for the trip = 7.61 (rounding to the next hundredth)
We can write it in another way:
46 * Number of gallons for the trip = 350
Therefore,
B. 46n = 350
C. Approximately 7.61 gallons
