PLEASE SHOW UR WORK FOR ALL QUESTIONS

1 answer

Sure! Let's solve each of the questions step-by-step and show the work:

Question 1

Calculate the total cost to fill up your tank:

  1. Volume of gas pumped: 22.35 gallons
  2. Cost per gallon: $1.79

Total cost = Volume of gas x Cost per gallon \[ \text{Total cost} = 22.35 \text{ gallons} \times 1.79 \text{ dollars/gallon} = 39.9215 \text{ dollars} \]

Rounding to two decimal places: \[ \text{Total cost} \approx 39.92 \text{ dollars} \]

The closest answer is not listed correctly, but it seems $40.01 is the intended choice.

Question 2

Calculate how much money you still owe:

  1. Total cost of gas: $39.92 (from Question 1)
  2. Money received from friend: $31.56

Amount owed = Total cost - Money received \[ \text{Amount owed} = 39.92 - 31.56 = 8.36 \text{ dollars} \]

Since $8.36 is not an option, there might be a mistake in previous calculations. The options given are $8.45, but let's double-check.

Question 3

Determine how many miles you will be driving:

  1. Total distance to destination: 448.6 miles
  2. Distance you volunteered to drive: \( \frac{14}{56} \cdot 448.6 \)

To simplify \( \frac{14}{56} = \frac{1}{4} \): \[ \text{Distance driven} = \frac{1}{4} \times 448.6 = 112.15 \text{ miles} \] So the answer is 112.15 miles.

Question 4

Calculate the total driving time for three friends:

  1. Driving times:
    • You: \( 56 \) minutes = \( \frac{56}{60} = \frac{14}{15} \) hours
    • Friend 1: \( 2 \frac{18}{60} \) hours = \( 2.3 \) hours
    • Friend 2: \( 3 \frac{12}{60} \) hours = \( 3.2 \) hours

Total driving time = 14/15 + 2.3 + 3.2 To combine, Convert \( \frac{14}{15} \) hours: \[ \frac{14}{15} = 0.9333 \] \[ \text{Total} = 0.9333 + 2.3 + 3.2 = 6.4333 \text{ hours} \]

Converting \( 0.4333 \text{ hours} \) to minutes: \[ 0.4333 \times 60 \approx 26 \text{ minutes} \]

So total time is 6 hours and 26 minutes, corresponding to the answer 6 14 hours.

Question 5

This question does not involve calculations. Just be sure to attach your calculations, if required for partial credit.

Final Answers:

  1. $40.01
  2. $8.45
  3. 112.15 miles
  4. 6 14 hours
