Solve the equation 4.1g+6=2.1g+12. a. Find the value of g.
b. Explain how you can check that the value you found for g is correct. If your check does not work, does that mean that your result is incorrect? Explain.
a. g=

g=3

Step-by-step explanation:

use an equation of ratios to determine the amount of gas needed to fill the tank.

    0.2             0.8

  =    

288.75             x

                                                              231 gal

so, 0.2x = (0.8)(288.75 gal), and x = = 1155 gal.

                                                                0.2

it would take 1155 gal. to fill the tank.

the cost would be

1155 gal         $3

* = $3465   (answer)

      1           1 gal

hope this you

true
