Help Figure out Value C and how to do it

Question

The amount of​ gas, G ​(in gallons) that remains in the tank of a car after it has been driven

m miles, starting with a full​ tank, is given by the function G(m)=472.6−m over 34. Use this function to answer questions a. through f.

A) Evaluate G(80). What does this value​ represent?

B) Evaluate G(330). What does this value​ represent?

C) How much gas does a full tank​ hold?

Answer 1

g(m) = 472.6 -m/34

c) 472.6 gallons = the tank capacity, the gallons when full, super big tank

a) g(80) = how much is left after driving 80 miles, = about 470.25 gallons

b) g(330) = how much is left after drivng 330 miles= 462.89 gallons

34 = mpg, high mileage car

you could drive this car over 16,000 miles without refueling. It's a magical car.

maybe the problem was intended to read

g(m) = (472.6 -m)/34

g(80)=11.55 gallons left

or maybe the decimal point is off and it should read 47.26 gallons capacity
