A motorcycle can go 50 miles using one gallon of gas. About how many gallons of gas will be used to go 150 kilometers? (Hint: 1 mile is approximately 1.6 kilometers)

The answer to your question is 1.875 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

distance = 50 mi

volume of gas = 1 gal

volume for 150 km = ?

Process

1.- Convert 50 mi into kilometers

                         1 mile 1.6 km

                          x         150 km

                          x = (150 x 1)/1.6

                          x = 93.75 mi

2.- Calculate the gallons wasted

                          1 gallon 50 mi

                          x             93.75 mi

                          x = (93.75 x 1)/50

                          x = 93.75/50

                         x = 1.875 gallons

the central idea is that:

individuals should refuse to cooperate with institutions they believe unjust.

thoreau felt  that governments were more often agents of corruption than justice, even democracies, and that just because the majority feels a certain way does not make it just or correct in absolute terms. he uses the fact that slavery exists in our democracy to support this idea.

he goes on to say that, as a result, people should live true to their own internal laws regarding right and wrong, as a product of reflection and a moral life, rather than following every law that society imposes.
