PLEASE USE MATLAB TO SOLVE THE FOLLOWING PROBLEM (PLEASE KEEP IT AS SIMPLE AS POSSIBLE) MATHEMATICAL SOLUTION POSTED BELOW:

PROBLEM 2.11

MATHEMATICAL ANSWER:

1) for Smart Car ForTwo

fuel efficiency = 36 mpg

total miles travelled = 12000 miles

no of gallons used = 12000 miles/ 36mpg

= 1000/3 gallons

amount of CO2 omitted = 1000/3 * 19.4 pounds

= 6466.67 pounds

2) for Honda Civic

fuel efficiency = 32 mpg

total miles travelled = 12000 miles

no of gallons used = 12000 miles/ 32mpg

= 3000/8 gallons = 375 gallons

amount of CO2 omitted = 375 * 19.4 pounds

= 7275 pounds

3) for Chevrolet Malibu

fuel efficiency = 44 mpg

total miles travelled = 12000 miles

no of gallons used = 12000 miles/ 44mpg

= 3000/11 gallons

amount of CO2 omitted = 3000/11 * 19.4 pounds

= 5290.9090 pounds

4) for Toyota Prius (hybrid)

fuel efficiency = 50 mpg

total miles travelled = 12000 miles

no of gallons used = 12000 miles/ 50mpg

= 240 gallons

amount of CO2 omitted = 240 * 19.4 pounds

= 4656 pounds

5) for Toyota yaris

fuel efficiency = 33 mpg

total miles travelled = 12000 miles

no of gallons used = 12000 miles/ 33mpg

= 4000/11 gallons

amount of CO2 omitted = 4000/11 * 19.4 pounds

= 7054.54 pounds

burning one gallon of gasoline in your car produces 19.4 pounds of CO2. Calculate the amount of CO2 emitted during a year for the following vehicles, assuming they all travel 12,000 miles per year. The reported fuel efficiency numbers were extracted from the U.S Department of energy website and reflect the combined city and highway estimate s. 2013 2013 2013 2013 2013 2013 Smart Car ForTwo Honda Civic Honda Civic Hybric Chevrolet Malibuu Toyota Prius (hybrid) Toyota yaris 36 mpg 32 mpg 44 mpg 26 mpg 50 mpg 33 mpg
