Answer:19.74 gallons of the gas in the tank is wasted.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the efficiency of the gas engine is 6%, wastage is #= 100 - 6 = 94%.

Therefore wastage = 94% x 21=94 x21/100=19.74 gallons

B-4-3b combining like terms​
Bogdan [553]

Answer: -2b-4

Ok, so I assume you meant b-4-3b. If not, then B-4-3b is the best you can get, since B and b are different in math.

Anyways, we can rearrange b-4-3b into b-3b-4. Calculating b-3b = -2b. That means -2b-4 is the answer.

Hope that helped,
