Ok, here is the problem
Louella runs a messenger service and must keep track of the gas mileage of each car. When she filled the gas tank of one car, she used a calculator to find the gas mileage. The calculator display read "23.355178".
Which of the numbers most closely represents the gas mileage in miles per gallon.
A- 2.335*10 squared
B- 24/3
C- 23 1/3
D- 2335/1000
Plz show your workMath problem help plz ?
A) 2.335 x 10虏 = 233.5
B) 24/3 = 8
C) 23 1/3 = 23.333333333333
D) 2335/1000 = 2.335
So C is the closest to "23.355178" ^^Math problem help plz ?
A-2.335*10^2=233,5 - noway
B- 24/3 (30/3=10) less then 10 - noway
C- 23 +1/3 possibly...
D- 2335/1000=2,335 noway
only c is possible since all the others aren't even close..

I need HELP!!!!!!..... Please. Is for Math class.?
For the following question, assume that you drive 15,000 miles per year(all in city) and the price of gasoline is $3.75 per gallon.
1. Write a linear equation the models that the total cost of owning and operating each vehicle y as a function of the number of years of ownership x.

2.4L 4, Auto
$3.75/GALLON 15,000 MI/YEAR
-Miles per gallon in city 21
-Gas cost $2,289.75
-Gas consumption 611 gallonsI need HELP!!!!!!..... Please. Is for Math class.?
y = mx + b
b = purchase price
m = annual operating cost
m = 3.75 * 15000 / 21
= 3.75 * 714.29
= 2678.57jp cycles

Computers Programming C++?
I need help on an assignment. Its a gas mileage calculator.
Compares two cars. You have to tank size, what kind of gas mileage do you get in city,
what kind of gas mileage you get on hwy it asks this for both cars.
how much does a gallon of gas cost now
what percentage do you travel on hwy
then it should show compared vehicles. I know i need objects and classes.Computers Programming C++?
Consider a car object. You can use it to store all the info for each car. You can even use the object to calculate the gas mileage.
The rest is displaying answers. Which you can also do with the car object.
The rest is easy math.

Can the gas mileage of my car be wrong?
I bought a used 2005 Hyundai Elantra about a month ago. It has a 14.5 gallon tank, an automatic transmission, and a 4 cylinder engine. The screen that calculates trip length says that since I filled up my tank a few days ago, I have gone about 105 miles and got 23 miles per gallon. However, I now only have a 1/2 tank of gas left. I just filled up on Sunday.
Calculating this myself, I figured that half the tank (7.25 gallons) times 23 miles per gallon should come to about 166.75 miles. Yet, in reality, divide the 105 miles I actually got by 7.25, and the number is really about 14-15.
For a 4 cylinder engine this is awful. Could the trip calculator be wrong in some way (either with the miles or the MPG?), or maybe are my calculations wrong? Or is there something wrong with the way the car is using gas, maybe?Can the gas mileage of my car be wrong?
Three possible reasons for the miscalculation.
1) You reversed a considerable distance, throwing the things out of whack.
2) You didn't count right.
3) You're trip calculator is broken.Can the gas mileage of my car be wrong?
You cannot estimate the gas mileage. The fuel guage will vary. Fill the tank and record the miles. Later refill the tank and then do the math. I'm surprised you don't get better mileage than the 23. I get better mileage than that with a Chevy V-8.Can the gas mileage of my car be wrong?
dont go by the fuel gauge to check this. heres what you do: top off your tank. reset the tripometer to 0. drive for a few days. refill the tank all the way. check how many miles you drove, and record how many gallons it took to refill the tank. so say you went 150 miles on 15 gallons. so then 150/15 = 10mpg. (thats what im gettin in my truck :-(...). get it? hope this clears things up. if youre still gettin a low number, it could be your driving habits. if you have a lot of hills, youll get worse economy, and if youre a jackrabbit as soon as the light turns green and you got a lead foot, thatll also destroy your mpg rating.

How can i estimate gas?
I have used an online gas calculator based on distance from city to city and year and make of car and gas prices over country.. but my sister just traveled from TN to MI and she estimated $800 but it cost $1,200.00. I am paying for a trip and the gas mileage calculator estimated $630 round trip from TN to NY? Any ideas?How can i estimate gas?
Well, the possibilities for why it was wrong are:
1) Calculator was wrong about distance (unlikely)
2) Calculator was wrong about MPG of the car (gotten from EPA but that's not reflective of most people's driving styles and actual MPG)
3) Calculator was wrong (or outdated) as far as gas prices along the way
I'd guess it's #2. The best thing you can do is find out how many highway MPG you actually get in the car that you'll be taking, and use that in the calculation.How can i estimate gas?
You will get a better calculation of gas usage while you are on your trip. Make note of how much it cost to fill your tank. Reset your trip mileage to zero. When you stop to fuel up calculate amount of gas used versus the distance you traveled. Use that as your base for the remainder of your trip.professor layton

Is it possible to have a bicycle towed by a towing company?
I've never seen or heard of a bike being towed but I guess it's possible.
What about a motorcycle?Is it possible to have a bicycle towed by a towing company?
If the towing company get paid to do so, I'm sure they will tow anything, even a bicycle.
Most of the people I know who have worked for towing companies over the years are full of stories about all the odd and unusual things they have been asked to tow for people. Yes, they have towed bicycles, motorcycles, electric wheelchairs and go carts. Basically, if you are willing to pay for it they will transport pretty much anything that they can legally haul.Is it possible to have a bicycle towed by a towing company?
They don't actually TOW it but they'll retrieve it. They put a mc diagonally on the forks and chain it down.
I'm pretty sure they'd tow a motorcycle if they needed to. Somehow someway!Is it possible to have a bicycle towed by a towing company?
how about a truck freight line. UPS, FedEx,train,ship or some similar means.

How do I find towing capacity for my truck ?
I need to know how much stuff my truck will tow by weight.How do I find towing capacity for my truck ?
Since you do not mention the model, year, 2 or 4 wheel drive, engine size and rear axel I can't answer it, but many times Edmonds will have some information.
Actually payload and towing capacity are completely different.
Trucks are actually evaluated for maximum towing capacity, but as I said, the questions that I asked needed answered first.
Check the owners manual, or the tag on the inside of the door.How do I find towing capacity for my truck ?
Look in your owners manual or call a dealership. That info is readily available in both location.
It is in your owners manual. If you don't have a manual contact a dealer who sells the truck his maintenance department will have that info.How do I find towing capacity for my truck ?
Check the owners manual. Note that for towing purposes there's a limit on weight of the trailer plus cargo as well as "tongue weight" (i.e. actually weight pushing down on trailer hitch).
There is really no rating for that in particular. Now there is a "capacity payload" towing rate for your truck. You kind of have to use some sensibility and keep your towing down to a minimum cause any heavy weighted object thats going to be towed will overwork the tranny and cause the fluid to heat up more quickly. Inotice alot of those dually truck guys get an extra tranny fluid cooler added on the truck just for towing purposes. Now if you have a dually truck or a deisel powered truck there probably is a towing rate where the driver door jam is. I hope this helps.
call your local dealer. they can tell you the exact amounts. good luck!
just check the owner manual
there should be a tag on your drivers door that will read MAX GVW or MAX GVW RATING - this is the maximum gross vehicle weight rating - it includes the weight of the truck as well as the payload. it will be the rating to use based on the equipment your truck was built with, your owners manual will cover how to load your truck - ie how much of a load you can put on the rear bumper hitch , and how much payload you can put in the box , and how heavy of a trailer you can pull.
