The price of gasoline purchased varies directly as the number of gallons of gas purchased. Suppose 19 gallons are purchased for $22.50

Missing Part:

What is the price of purchasing 14 gallons?

14 gallons cost $16.58

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Gallon ---- Price

19 ---------- $22.50

Required

Determine the price of 14 gallons?

Represent this price with x

Since, it is a direct variation. The table can be completer as thus:

Cross Multiply:

Solve for x

the smallest possible measurement of the width is 14 feet

step-by-step explanation:

let's assume length of parallelogram is 'l'

width of parallelogram is 'w'

the perimeter of a parallelogram must be no less than 40 feet

so, we get

we are given

length of parallelogram is 6 feet

so,

l=6

we can plug it

now, we can solve for w

subtract both sides by 12

divide both sides by 2

and we get

so,

the smallest possible measurement of the width is 14 feet

45
