Answer:
The expression of amount of gas is [tex]s=25-g.[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
25 gallons of gas were pumped into two different size tanks.
Now, to express the amount of gas pumped into the smaller tank in terms of the amount [tex]g[/tex] pumped into the larger tank.
Let the amount of gas pumped into smaller tank be [tex]s.[/tex]
And according to question, the amount of gas pumped into larger tank is [tex]g[/tex] .
Total amount of gas pumped into both size tanks = 25 gallons.
So, to express the amount of gas pumped into the smaller tank in terms of the amount [tex]g[/tex] pumped into the larger tank:
[tex]s+g=25[/tex]
Subtracting both sides by [tex]g[/tex] we get:
[tex]s=25-g.[/tex]
Therefore, the expression of amount of gas is [tex]s=25-g.[/tex]
