Answer 1

The amount of gas that would be left after 2 hours is 10.50 gallons

The amount of gas that would be left after t hours is 13 - 1.25t gallons

Calculating amount

From the question, we are to determine how much gas would be left after driving for 2 hours

From the given information,

Aria currently has 13 gallons of gas in her car

and

Each hour that she drives, her car uses up 1.25 gallons of gas.

Thus,

After 2 hours, her car would have used 2 × 1.25 gallons of gas

2 × 1.25 = 2.50 gallons of gas

Therefore,

The amount of gas that would be left after 2 hours = 13 gallons - 2.50 gallons

The amount of gas that would be left after 2 hours = 10.50 gallons

For the amount of gas that would be left after t hours
Since the car uses 1.25 gallons of gas per hour

Then,

The amount of gas that would be left after t hours = 13 - 1.25 × t

The amount of gas that would be left after t hours = 13 - 1.25t gallons

Hence,

The amount of gas that would be left after 2 hours is 10.50 gallons

The amount of gas that would be left after t hours is 13 - 1.25t gallons
