Answer 1

Answer: In explanation

Step-by-step explanation: 350-170=4x

Solve                                     180=4x

                                              45=x    45 minutes longer

4x+170=350 because you would want to subtract 170 from each side not add 170 to each side when simplifying

4x+170 because that is how much gas the tank can hold.  You need to have 4x in the equation and 350 and 4x wouldn't make sense so use 4x and 170.

45 minutes as stated above.
