Solve the problem. if at a given speed a car can travel 95.6 miles on 4 gallons of gasoline, how far can the car can travel on 68 gallons of gasoline at that speed? o 95.6 miles 1625.2 miles 68 miles 1632.6 miles

 The correct option is (B) 1625.2 miles.

Step-by-step explanation:  Given that at a given speed a car can travel 95.6 miles on 4 gallons of gasoline.

We are to find the distance that the car can travel on 68 gallons at the same speed.

We will be using the UNITARY method to solve the given problem.

Distance traveled by the car on 4 gallons of gasoline = 95.6 miles.

So, the distance traveled by the car on 1 gallon of gasoline will be

Therefore, the distance traveled by the car in 68 gallons of gasoline is given by

Thus, the required distance traveled by the car on 68 gallons of gasoline is 1625.2 miles.

Option (B) is CORRECT.

let's cover over the formula of the vertex:

y = a(x – h)^2 + k

in this formula, (h,k) are the vertex, always remember that the positive or negative value of the vertex is based on the sign it has.

for example, if the vertex is -3,-6 then both the x and y value would have the positive sign attached to it and if it were a positive x and y value, then a negative sign would be attached to it.

with that being said, for our problem the x value is a positive one so we are looking for a number with a negative sign next to it, in this case the first and second choice.

however, for the first answer choice it isn't quite part of the formula so we know that the answer choice correctly displays the x value.

to confirm, we can see if the -1 fits correctly with the second answer choice, and as mentioned above a negative number will have a positive sign attached to it. so, for our problem we can see that -1 has been changed to +1, so we can confirm that the second answer choice is correct.

hence, our final answer is y=(x - 1)^2 + 1
