Answer:

D) 8x - 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's say that x = 5. That would mean Amelia put 15(5) - 4 gallons of gas in her car, which equals 71 gallons. She used 7(5) - 3 gallons driving to work, which is 32 gallons used. 71 - 32 = 39 gallons left.

What else equals 39, you might ask?

8(5) - 1

40 - 1

39.
