3. Samantha is training to run a marathon. The first week she runs 4 km each day. The next week, she runs 7 km each day. During each successive week (each week following), each day she runs 3 km farther than she ran the days of the previous week. If she runs for five days each week, what total distance will Sara run in a 12-week training session?

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
