ACT Math Practice Question And Elaborated Answers

ACT Math Practice Question And Elaborated Answers 408. 04 is the correct answer. If you divide 2,727 miles by 27 miles per gallon you will get the number of gallons: = 101. Then, multiply the number of gallons by the cost per gallon: 101(4.04) = 408.04. This gives the cost of gas for this car to travel 2,727 typical miles. - CORRECT ANSWER-A car averages 27 miles per gallon. If gas costs $4.04 per gallon, which of the following is closest to how much the gas would cost for this car to travel 2,727 typical miles? 14 is the correct answer. When you use x = 3 and y = 5 in the given expressions, 3x² - 2y = 3(3)² - 2(5) = 27 - 10 = 17 and 2x² - 3y = 2(3)² - 3(5) = 18 - 15 = 3. Then subtract 3 from 17 to get 14. - CORRECT ANSWER-When x = 3 and y = 5, by how much does the value of 3x² - 2y exceed the value of 2x² - 3y ? The answer is 7. You can solve this problem by first subtracting 2x from each side of the equation to get 3 = x - 4. Then add 4 to each side, so x = 7. - CORRECT ANSWER-What is the value of x when 2x + 3 = 3x - 4 ?
