A car can go 35 1/2 miles in 1 1/2 miles gallons. How many gallons does a car need to go 639 miles? Need work please!!

27 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the car can go 35½ miles in 1½ miles gallons, we need to first calculate the number of miles that the car can go in 1 gallon. This will be:

= 35½ / 1½

= 71/2 / 3/2

= 71/2 × 2/3

= 23⅔ miles per gallon.

Therefore, the amount of gallons that the car need to go 639 miles will be:

= 639 / 23⅔

= 639 ÷ 71/3

= 639 × 3/71

= 27

The car will need 27 gallons.

correct choice is b

step-by-step explanation:

when you calculate the average rate of change of a function, you are finding the slope of the secant line between the two points. for the function the average rate of change from point to point can be calculated as

to find the average rate of change from day 2 to day 10, note that at day 2, 8 houses were sold, so a(2,8) and at day 10, 2 houses were sold, so b(10,2). thus,
