You can put this solution on YOUR website!
let’s a full tank of gas be x
if Nerissas car travel between 380 and 410 miles on a full tank of gas,then we have
380+%3Cx%3C+410+.......1

if she filled her tank and drove 45 miles, then we have
380++%3Cx%2B45%3C+410............solve for x
380-+45%3Cx%2B45+-45+%3C+410+-45+
335+%3Cx+%3C+365
so, she can drive between 335 and 365 miles without running out of gas
