A car can travel 210 miles on 8 gallons of gas. Which equation best represents the linear
relationship between x, the number of gallons of gas, and y, the total distance the car can
travel?

Respuesta :

Answer:

D = (2 5/8) (miles per gallon)x miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Total distance traveled = (rate of fuel consumption)(number of gas)

                                          (210 mi / 8 gal)x, or, after reduction,

D = (210/8)x, or

D = (2 5/8) (miles per gallon)x miles

Answer:

y = 26.25x  

Step-by-step explanation:

Dividing 210 miles by 8 gallons will give you 26.25 miles can be driven for each gallon of gas.

[tex]\frac{210}{8} =26.25[/tex] miles/gallon

Slope can also be represented by [tex]\frac{105}{4}[/tex]  producing [tex]y = \frac{105}{4}x[/tex]
