Charlotte filled up her car with gas before embarking on a road trip across the
country. The capacity of Charlotte's gas tank is 12 gallons and the car uses 0.75
gallons of gas for every hour driven. Write an equation for G, in terms oft,
representing the number of gallons of gas remaining in Charlotte's gas tank after t
hours of driving.

Answer:

G=−0.75t+12

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

-0.75t+12

Step-by-step explanation:

Since Charlotte filled up her tank to the capacity of 12 gallons, there would be 12 gallons in the tank after driving for 0 hours, Which is G= 12 when t= 0, the Y -intercept.

(0,12)

Since the car uses 0.75 gallons of gas each hour, the amount of gas in the tank will decrease 0.75 gallons for each hour of driving, making the slope of G equal to -0.75

In Conclusion,

G= -0.75t+12.
