The cost (in dollars) of g gallons of gasoline and be modeled by C(g) = 2.25g. The gasoline used by an SUV can be modeled by g(d) = 0.025d where d is the distance (in miles).
\n" ); document.write( "--------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "Find C(g(d)) = C[0.025d] = 2.25*0.025d = 0.05625d
\n" ); document.write( "------------------------------ \r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Evaluate C(g(500)) = C[0.025*500] = C[12.5] = 2.25*12.5 = 28.125
\n" ); document.write( "-----------\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "What does C(g((500)) represent?
\n" ); document.write( "g(500) is the amt. of gasoline in gallons needed by an SUV to travel 500 miles.
\n" ); document.write( "Then C(12.5) = 2.25*12.5 = 28.125 is the cost in dollars for that 12.5
\n" ); document.write( "gallons of gasoline.
\n" ); document.write( "So C(g(500)) is the cost in dollars for an SUV to go 500 miles.
