the distance d, in miles, that a family travels on a vacation is given by d=55t, where t is the time in hours. the distance can also be expressed as d=25g, where g is the number of gallons of gasoline used on the trip. write an equation to g in terms of t.

Substitute 55t for d in d = 25g
Solve for g, simplifying to its lowest terms
