g=15−32mIf Vera starts with a full tank of gas, the number of gallons of gas, g, left in the tank after driving m miles is given by the equation. When full, how many gallons of gas does Vera's tank hold?Choose 1 answer:(A) 15 gallons(B) 17 gallons(C) 32 gallonsD 480 gallons
Q. g=15−32mIf Vera starts with a full tank of gas, the number of gallons of gas, g, left in the tank after driving m miles is given by the equation. When full, how many gallons of gas does Vera's tank hold?Choose 1 answer:(A) 15 gallons(B) 17 gallons(C) 32 gallonsD 480 gallons
Given equation: We are given the equation g=15−32m, which describes the number of gallons, g, left in the tank after driving m miles. To find out how many gallons the tank holds when full, we need to consider the scenario where Vera has not driven any miles yet, which means m=0.
Substituting m=0: Substitute m=0 into the equation to find the value of g when the tank is full.g=15−(0/32)g=15−0g=15
Calculating g: The calculation shows that when Vera's tank is full and she has not driven any miles, the tank holds 15 gallons of gas.
