The distance y (in miles) that a truck travels on x gallons of gasoline is represented by the equation y=18x The graph shows the distance that a car travels. Which vehicle gets the better gas mileage?

Car M:

50.4/2 = 25.2

car M uses up 1 gallon every 25.2 miles

Car P:

Just from the graph, you can see that it uses up 1 gallon every 30 miles

The two graphs vary the /miles slightly but it is around their zones of 25.2 and 30. It varies slightly because the cars may be traveling at a fast speed or slower speed thus using up more or less fuel by the time they've reached the recorded distances on the graphs.

what's that

$9.89

step-by-step explanation:

9.90 = p x .06 x .25 (3/12 changed to a decimal)

9.90 = p x 0.015

9.90 - 0.015 = p

9.89 = p
