Water is not soluble in gasoline. Water is made up of very polar molecules while gasoline is made up of a collection of different nonpolar hydrocarbon molecules. They cannot interact through the same intermolecular forces and therefore they cannot dissolve each other.
The above answer is correct, however even insoluble things will dissolve to a certain extent. Gasoline will dissolve about .1% water, or 1 ml per liter (about 3/4 of a teaspoon per gallon). Gasoline containing ethanol will dissolve about 1% water.

Is methylbenzene miscible in water?
Methylbenzene, aka toluene, is not miscible in water. It is miscible in organic solvents such as hexane and acetone.
Would gasoline turpentine or mercury settle at the bottom of water?
Of the three, only mercury (a liquid metal) is heavier than water and would sink to the bottom. Gasoline is partly miscible (forms suspensions in water), while turpentine has a lower density than water and would float on top.
Example of miscible?
oil and water are immiscible water and alcohol are miscible
When water is mixed with rubbing alcohol the two liquids completely dissolve. Are the two liquids miscible or are they immiscible?
Water and rubbing alcohol are totally miscible.
Are water and ethanol miscible?
Methanol is miscible in water but Ethyl Acetate is immiscible in water. -- The above answer is correct if asking if each solvent is miscible in water. If you are asking if they are miscible together then the answer is yes, they will mix.
What pairs of substances are miscible water and oxygen water and gasoline water and sodium chloride water and ethanol?
Water and ethanol are miscible.
What happens when you mix water and gasoline?
These liquids are not miscible.
Is gasoline miscible in ethanol?
Yes.
Is gasoline an element solution compound or heterogenous?
Gasoline is best described as a solution. It is a mixture of miscible hydrocarbons.
Is oil miscible?
Oil is not miscible with water.
Is methylbenzene miscible in water?
Methylbenzene, aka toluene, is not miscible in water. It is miscible in organic solvents such as hexane and acetone.
Is ink a miscible liquid?
Miscible in/with what? I am going to assume in water. Then, yes, they are miscible.
Why alcohals are miscible with water?
Alcohals are miscible in water and we cannot see anything after stirring it
Would gasoline turpentine or mercury settle at the bottom of water?

Are milk and cream miscible?
Milk is miscible in other milk products but it is not miscible in water--otherwise you wouldn't see it, or detect it, optically in water.
Is water miscible in water?
Yes.
Example of miscible?
oil and water are immiscible water and alcohol are miscible
