Acar travels 150 miles on 12 gallons of gasoline. how many gallons of gasoline are needed to travel 500 miles.

40 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

Per find gasoline per mile first.

150 miles per 12 gallons of gasoline,

so we divide 12 by 150 to find gallons per mile.

Gallons per mile = 12/150 = 0.08 gallons per mile

Now, we need to find gallons for 500 miles. We simply multiply 0.08 gallons per mile by the number of miles, 500.

So,

500 * 0.08 = 40 gallons

So, 500 miles would require 40 gallons

your answer is d 2,500

step-by-step explanation:

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
