Explanation / Answer

1) From table 36 miles per gallon in city

So, no. of miles = y ; x = no. of gallons

So, y = 36*x ( equation)

for x = 20 gallons

y = 36*20 = 720 miles

2) A magazine has 110 pages. There are 23 full-page ads and 14 half-page ads. The rest of the magazines consists of articles. Write an equation that can be used to find the number of pages of articles in the magazine

number of pages of articles in the magazine = y

y = total no. of pages - pages with full page add - pages wth half 0 page add

= 110 - 23 - 14 = 73 pages
