Bill’s car gets 30 miles to the gallon. For every gallon of gas it consumes, his car runs 30 miles. Use this information to determine whether this relation is a function write a equation for the number of miles Bill travels, y, in terms how much gas it uses, x.

Step-by-step explanation:

No. of miles driven in 1 gallon = 30 miles.

since we have to distance traveled in miles.multiply LHS and RHS by x

No. of miles driven in 1*x gallon = 30*x miles.

No. of miles driven x gallons = 30*x = 30x miles

As given that

the number of miles Bill travels is represented by y

gas used is x

then

y = 30x

=> x = y/30

Thus, Bill's car uses y/30 gallon gas to travel Y miles.

because linear equations are a lot simpler than quadratics equations, and linear equations formula is a lot easier to memorize. that's why i think they're harder.

10/60

step-by-step explanation:

if you divide 10 by 60 the answer is 0.166666 while if you divide or solve the other problems it equals 0.6
