To state: The expression of gas cost per mile if Tan pays $84 to fill his truck with gas and is able to drive m miles on a full tank.
The resultant expression is
“Per” indicates “Divide”.
After substituting m equal to 200 miles the resultant cost per mile is $0.42
Given information:
The given cost of filling gas in truck is $84. It can travel m miles.
Explanation:
Consider the given information:
The total cost of filling full tank of gas is: $84
The distance travelled on a full tank of gas is: m
The expression for gas cost per mile:
This expression can be found out by dividing the total cost by the total distance travelled by the truck.
The expression will become:
Here “Per” indicates the operation of “Division”.
Now find the cost of gas per mile, for that substitute the value of m as 200 in the expression
Therefore, the answer
