Ms. Arbor’s Volkswagen GTI gets 40 miles to the gallon of gas. How far can it go on 1 gallon of gas? 2 gallons?

Ms. Arbor's Volkswagen GTI can go:

40 miles on a gallon

80 miles on 2 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

if the Volkswagens GTI gets 40 miles per gallon then for two gallons you multiply 40 by 2 getting the number 80.

y = 1/2x - 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:

y = mx + b      Slope Intercept Form

Step 2:

y = 1/2x + b          Equation

Step 3:

3 = 1/2 ( 10 ) + b         Input x and y

Step 4:

3 = 5 + b         Multiply

Step 5:

3 - 5 = b      Subtract 5 on both sides

Step 6:

b = - 2

y = 1/2x - 2

Hope This Helps :)
