Answer:
In the first week, Micah bought 11 gallons of gas.
In the second week, Micah bought 8 gallons of gas.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
First week
x gallons of gas at $2.39 per gallon
x gallons = $2.39x
Second week
3 fewer gallons of gas than the first week at $2.49 per gallon
x - 3 gallons = $2.49(x-3)
Total spent = $46.21
$2.39x + $2.49(x-3) = $46.21
2.39x + 2.49x - 7.47 = 46.21
4.88x - 7.47 = 46.21
Add 7.47 to both sides
4.88x - 7.47 + 7.47 = 46.21 + 7.47
4.88x = 53.68
Divide both sides by 4.88
x = 53.68/4.88
= 11
x = 11
First week = x = 11 gallons
Second week
= x - 3
= 11-3
= 8 gallons
Therefore,
In the first week, Micah bought 11 gallons of gas.
In the second week, Micah bought 8 gallons of gas.
