8. Mylie's family car has a 14 gallon gas tank. The car uses about 0.5 gallons of gas each day. A warning light comes on when the fuel left in the tank is 1.5 gallons or less.
a. If Mylie's family starts with a full tank (14 gallons), can they drive the car for 15 days with out the warning light
coming on? Explain how you know

yes

Step-by-step explanation:

Mylie's car has 14 gallons of gas. But if we use 0.5 a day we should figure out how many days she can use it. 14*2=28. 28-15 is 13 which is above 1.5.

the final amount you will pay is $68.04.

the tip is determined by the pre-tax amount, so we calculate the tip based on the original bill, not after we've added sales tax.

to find the tip:

we can divide 54.00 by 100 to get 1% of 54. then we multiply that by 18.

54 / 100 = .54

.54 x 18 = 9.72

tip = 9.72$

to find the tax:

we can divide 54.00 by 100 to get 1% of 54. then we can multiply that by 8 to get 8%.

54 / 100 = .54

.54 x 8 = 4.32

tax= 4.32

now we can add the tip and tax to the bill to get our total.

54 + 9.72 + 4.32 = 68.04

total: $68.04
