Question

Damon’s car can go an average of 18 miles on each gallon of gas. If m represents the number of miles, which equation models this situation? CLEAR CHECK m = 118 1 1 8 g, where g is the miles per gallon of gas. m = 18g, where g is 1 gallon of gas. m = 118 1 1 8 g, where g is the number of gallons of gas. m = 18g, where g is the number of gallons of gas.

Answer 1

Answer: Last option is correct.

Explanation:

Since we have given that

Amount of average of miles on each gallon of gas = 18

Let the number of miles be m

According to question, it becomes

Number of miles= Average of miles × Number of gallons of gas

`m=18g\\\\\text{where g is the number of gallons of gas}`

Hence, Last option is correct.

Answer 2

Let m represent the number of miles travelled by Damon.
Damon's car can go an average of 18 miles per gallon of gas.
The equation that models the situation is given by m = 18g, where g is the number of gallons of gas.
