Step-by-step explanation:
the answer to 1/3 times 3/4 is 1/4
Let
x---------> represent the number of miles Troy's has driven
y--------> represent the amount of gas in Troy's truck
we know that
the equation that represents the amount of gas, y, in troy' s truck after driving a certain number of miles, x is

where
m is the slope---------> 
in this problem the slope is equal to 
it's negative because the tank is going to be consumed
assuming he starts with a full tank

substitute in the formula above

therefore
the answer is
the equation
