(type an integer or decimal rounded to two decimal places as needed.) the driving time is at 75 miles per hour is nothing hours. (round to two decimal places as needed.) b. assume a gasoline price of $3.33 per gallon. what is the gasoline cost for a 2000-mile trip if you drive at an average speed of 54 miles per hour? what is the gasoline cost at 75 miles per hour? the gasoline cost at 54 miles per hour is $ nothing. (round to two decimal places as needed.) the gasoline cost at 75 miles per hour is $ nothing. (round to two decimal places as needed.)
