Gas station A has posted a chart that shows the price of gasoline in terms of the number of gallons. Gallons Price 3 9.15 5 15.25 7 21.35 Gas station B has an equation that represents the price, p, for gallons, g, of gasoline as p = $3.08g. Which gas station sells gasoline at a lower rate? What price does it charge?

Respuesta :

The prices at gas station A are :

3 gallons at $9.15

5 gallons at $15.25

So, per gallon costs = [tex]\frac{9.15}{3}=3.05[/tex] or

[tex]\frac{15.25}{5}=3.05[/tex]

At gas station B , the equation is p = $3.08g this means the price (p) is 3.08 per gallon and 3.08g (g is number of gallons) represents the total price of the number of gallons purchased.

Hence, Gas station A sells gasoline at a lower price of $3.05 per gallon.
