Over the weekend statton and taylor drove to montana to go hunting. now they're preparing to go home. tyler needs gas for his jeep, which gets 30 miles per gallon for gas mileage. when he stops at the gas station, he already has 8 gallons of gas in his tank. he buys more gas for $1.50 per gallon

if tyler spends $16.50 on gas, what is the total distance the boys could travel? round, if necessary, the nearest tenth.

Step-by-step explanation:

Givens

His tank contains 8 gallons

He spends 16.50 on gas

A gallon of gas costs 1.50 dollars

Millage = 30 mpg

Find the gas added.

Total gas (in gallons) added = amount spent / cost per gallon

Total gas (in gallons) added = 16.50 / 1.50

Total gas (in gallons) added = 11 gallons.

Find the total number of gallons in his tank.

Total = what was there + What he bought.

Total = 8 + 11

Total = 19 gallons.

Find the distance he can travel

Total distance = gallons * miles / gallon

Total distance = 19 * 30

Total distance = 570 miles.
