Question 526679: 1. Imagine you are at a gas station filling your tank with gas. The function C(g) represents the cost C of filling up the gas tank with g gallons. Given the equation C(g) = 3.03(g)
a. What does the number 3.03 represent?
b. Find C(2).
Answer by KMST(5328) (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!

The expression "303(g)" means 3.03 multiplied by g. The parentheses were not really necessary, and may be confusing you, but it is not a trick question.
The number 3.03 is what you multiply the number of gallons of gas purchased to find the price you have to pay. It is obviously the price of a gallon of gas.
C(2) is the cost of 2 gallons of gas 2 multiplied by 3.03.
