Question

A family is going on a car trip. The equation m equals negative twenty-six g plus four hundred sixty-eight shows how many more miles m they can drive after they have used g gallons of gas. Complete the statement below. A family is going on a car trip. The equation m=−26g+468 m=−26g+468 shows how many more miles m m they can drive after they have used g g gallons of gas. Complete the statement below. On one gallon of gas, the family can drive ________ miles

Answer 1

Answer:442 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

m miles traveled with g gallon of gas .

m=-26g+468

If family uses 1 gallon of gas thus distance traveled in miles is

m=-26(1)+468=442 miles

Thus family can travel 442 miles in 1 gallon of gas.

Answer 2

we are given

$m=-26g+468$

where

m is distance travelled by car in miles

g is gallons of gas

we are given

g=1 gallons

so, we can plug it and find m

$m=-26*1+468$

$m=442$

so,

On one gallon of gas, the family can drive 442 miles..........Answer
