Question

Damian filled up his car with gas before embarking on a road trip across the country. The car uses 2 gallons of gas for every hour driven, and after driving for 3 hours, there were 6 gallons of gas left in the tank. Write an equation for the function G(t),G(t), representing the number of gallons of gas remaining in Damian's gas tank after tt hours of driving.

Answer 1

Answer:

G(t)=12-2t

Step-by-step explanation:

Okay, first we need to find out how many gallons he lost, so we multiply 2 by 3 and get 6 gallons used.

Next, now knowing 6 gallons are left and 6 have been used we now add to get 12 gallons originally.

Then, now that we have the rate of change and the starting number we put together the equation to the way that best suits the question

Last, to check our work plug six into t next to the two and solve to get six gallons used,

I hope this helps you
