The panda at the zoo became ill and lost 3 pounds every week for 5 weeks. In the sixth week, she began to feel better and gained 4 pounds. Write and evaluate an expression that represents the total change in the panda’s weight over these 6 weeks. Use parentheses for multiplication.

Expression:

(3X5)-4=11 pounds lost

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
