Amotorist traveled 250 miles on 11 gallons of gas. with the same vehicle, about how far could he go on 16 gallons of gas? round to the nearest tenth.

Given:

A motorist traveled 250 miles on 11 gallons of gas.

To Find:

In the same vehicle, the distance that can be traveled in 16 gallons.

Rounding to the nearest tenth, the distance traveled on 16 gallons of gas is 363.5 miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

We first find the number of miles that can be traveled on 1 mile of gas.

We do this by using the unitary method.

Given that in 11 gallons, 250 miles can be traveled in a certain vehicle.

So in 1 gallon, 250 ÷ 11 miles can be traveled. This is roughly equal to 22.72.

Next we will calculate how much distance he can go in 16 gallons. We multiply the distance traveled in 1 gallon by 16.

That is, in  16 gallons, the number of miles that can be traveled is 22.72 x 16 = 363.52.

Rounding to the nearest tenth, the distance traveled on 16 gallons of gas is 363.5 miles.

the answer is. -82562234434584

step-by-step explanation:

hello and welcome!

so, when we see the words "proportional" along with a table, we need to know that we're looking numbers that divide by the same thing.

looking at this table, we simply have to do a trial and error, and divide to see which numbers have the same quotient. if you look at choice a & c, they both have equal quotients for three of the numbers, with one exception, so those can't be the answer. looking at b, there is no similarity, so that can't be it. then, we see d; if you divide all the numbers in the table, you'll see that they all divide by two, which is a proportional relationship, and our answer!

also, always remember that the x will always be the number that goes into y, and somewhere behind this table, is a formula. for this specific table, the formula would be:

since our x-value is being divided by two to get the y-value. and if they were to ask for more numbers in the series, this is the formula you would use to find them.
