(a). The fuel expense of the car in the complete trip in US dollars is [tex]\boxed{\$\,354}[/tex].
(b). The fuel consumed in gallons per mile is [tex]\boxed{0.0254\text{ gallons/mile}}[/tex].
Explanation:
Given:
The price of the fuel in Europe is [tex]1.063\text{ euros/ltr}[/tex].
The amount of fuel required for every [tex]100\text{ km}[/tex] is [tex]6.00\text{ ltr}[/tex].
Part (A):
Concept:
The value of one euro equivalent to the US dollar is [tex]\$\,1.11[/tex].
The cost of the fuel in terms of the US dollar is:
[tex]\begin{aligned}c&=1.063\text{ euros/ltr}\left(\dfrac{\$\,1.11}{1\text{ euro}}\right)\\&=\$\,1.18\text{ USD/ltr}\end{aligned}[/tex]
Since the car consumes [tex]6\text{ ltr}[/tex] of fuel during the journey of [tex]100\text{ km}[/tex], the total fuel consumed by the car in the trip of [tex]5000\text{ km}[/tex] is:
[tex]\begin{aligned}n&=\dfrac{6\text{ ltr}}{100\text{ km}}\times(5000\text{ km})\\&=300\text{ ltr}\end{aligned}[/tex]
The fuel consumed by the car in the whole trip of [tex]5000\text{ km}[/tex] is [tex]300\text{ ltr}[/tex].
The fuel expense for the trip of [tex]5000\text{ km}[/tex] can be obtained as:
[tex]\begin{aligned}\text{ cost}&=1.18\text{ USD/ltr}\times(300\text{ ltr})\\&=\$\,354\text{ USD}\end{aligned}[/tex]
Thus, the price of the fuel of the car in the complete trip in US dollars is [tex]\boxed{\$\,354}[/tex].
Part (B):
Concept:
The distance covered by the car in covering one mile is equivalent to [tex]1.61\text{ km}[/tex].
The amount of fuel consumed by the car in covering one mile is:
[tex]\begin{aligned}v^{'}&=1.6\text{ km}\times\dfrac{6\text{ ltr}}{100\text{ km}}\\&=0.096\text{ ltr}\end{aligned}[/tex]
The volume of oil consumed in terms of gallons per mile is:
[tex]\begin{aligned}v^{'}&=0.096\text{ ltr}\times\dfrac{1\text{ gallon}}{3.78\text{ ltr}}\\&=0.0254\text{ gallons}\end{aligned}[/tex]
Thus, the fuel consumed in gallons per mile is [tex]\boxed{0.0254\text{ gallons/mile}}[/tex].
