Answer:
a.) Total amount spent on gasoline and oil = $ ( 3.95g + 4.45c )
b.) Total amount spent by Maria = $ 74.02
Step-by-step explanation:
As given,
Cost of gasoline = $ 3.95 gallon
Cost of oil per can = $ 4.45
Also given,
Maria bought g gallons of gasoline and c cans of oil
⇒ Total cost of g gallons of gasoline = g×3.95 = $3.95g
Total cost of c cans of oil = c×4.45 = $4.45c
Now,
a.)
Total amount spent on gasoline and oil = $ ( 3.95g + 4.45c )
b.)
As given ,
Maria buy gasoline , g = 8.6 gallons
Maria buy cans of oil , c = 6
So,
Total amount spent = $ 3.95(8.6) + 4.45(9)
= $ 33.97 + 40.05 = $ 74.02
⇒Total amount spent by Maria = $ 74.02
