How many more miles per gallon can she go if she uses gas from Good Gas for her car? (1 point) Gabi can go more [?] miles per gallon if she uses gas from Good Gas for her car.
To find out how many more miles per gallon Gabi can go if she uses gas from Good Gas for her car, we need to compare the number of miles driven per gallon for each brand.
For Go Gas:
5.5 gallons of gas for 170.5 miles = 170.5/5.5 = 31 miles per gallon
10.2 gallons of gas for 316.2 miles = 316.2/10.2 = 31 miles per gallon
12.0 gallons of gas for 372.0 miles = 372.0/12.0 = 31 miles per gallon
14.5 gallons of gas for 449.5 miles = 449.5/14.5 = 31 miles per gallon
For Good Gas:
3.75 gallons of gas for 127.5 miles = 127.5/3.75 = 34 miles per gallon
9.4 gallons of gas for 319.6 miles = 319.6/9.4 = 34 miles per gallon
12.6 gallons of gas for 428.4 miles = 428.4/12.6 = 34 miles per gallon
16.0 gallons of gas for 544.0 miles = 544.0/16.0 = 34 miles per gallon
Therefore, Gabi can go 34 - 31 = 3 more miles per gallon if she uses gas from Good Gas for her car.

For 15 lbs: $4.50/15 = $0.30 per pound
For 30 lbs: $9.00/30 = $0.30 per pound
For 100 lbs: $30.00/100 = $0.30 per pound
The price per pound of Super Sugar can be found using the same method:
For 3.75 lbs: $1.16/3.75 = $0.31 per pound
For 10 lbs: $3.10/10 = $0.31 per pound
For 25 lbs: $7.75/25 = $0.31 per pound

Since the price per pound of both brands is the same ($0.31), Suman will not save any money per pound if he buys the Sweet Sugar brand.
A bean plant grows 2 inches in 2 days. A strawberry plant grows 4 inches in 5 days. Compare the two proportional relationships. Assume each plant is growing at a constant rate.(1 point)
To compare the two proportional relationships between the bean plant and the strawberry plant, we can determine the growth rate of each plant.
For the bean plant: 2 inches in 2 days, the growth rate is 2 inches per 2 days, or 1 inch per day.
For the strawberry plant: 4 inches in 5 days, the growth rate is 4 inches per 5 days, or 0.8 inches per day.
Comparing the growth rates, we can see that the bean plant grows at a faster rate than the strawberry plant. The bean plant grows 1 inch per day, while the strawberry plant grows 0.8 inches per day.
Last week, Malika’s cat slept 18 hours each day. Her baby slept 91 hours total for the week. Compare the proportional relationship of the number of hours the cat and baby sleep each day.
To compare the proportional relationship between the number of hours the cat and baby sleep each day, we need to determine the number of hours each one sleeps per day.
For Malika's cat:
The cat slept 18 hours each day for the week.
For Malika's baby:
The baby slept 91 hours total for the week.
Since there are 7 days in a week, we can divide 91 hours by 7 to find the average number of hours slept per day by the baby.
91 hours / 7 days = 13 hours per day.
Comparing the hours slept per day, we can see that the cat sleeps 18 hours per day, while the baby sleeps 13 hours per day.
Therefore, the cat sleeps more hours per day compared to the baby.
