Question

Leonard wants to become a stuntman for
the movies. He finds a great stuntman
school online and he applies and gets

school is in California and Leonard doesn't
have a car or money for a plane ticket. It will
cost him $2,000 to buy a car that gets 30
miles per gallon. The trip is 1200 miles and
gas is $4.00 per gallon. It is $2,500 for the
plane ticket. Which one would be cheaper
for him?

Answer 1

Answer:

It is cheaper to travel by car

Step-by-step explanation:

1200/30=40

This shows you need 40 gallons.

40x4=160

This shows it will cost Leonard $160 for the gas

2000+160=2160

This shows that if he chooses to travel by car he will pay $2160

$2500 is more then $2160 meaning it would be cheaper to travel by car
