Making Decisions It is Friday, Homecoming, and the big game with a rival school is tonight. You have an after-school job, and you have been saving for the big event for the past month. BUT, you had to purchase two new tires for your car; and now you only have $40 to spend. You need to get gas, pay to get into the game, and you had planned to take your date out to eat after the game before you go the Homecoming dance. Answer each question in complete sentences using proper grammar and punctuation: 1. Do you have enough money to do all that you had planned? 2. If gas costs $3.00 per gallon, what factors will determine how much gas you purchase? 3. We will assume that you and your date will get into the game for free since you are students. Will you have enough to take your date to dinner after the game, once you purchase gas for your car? 4. Would you be better off to cancel the whole night's plans? Justify your answer...tell why you made your choice.​

Answer:

1. No

2.If you are on a budget it depends if you want to purchase $50 or another amount, while if you want to fill up the gas tank it depends on the cars' capacity. Some cars can take up to 11 gallons of gas, so if wanting to fill up the tank you would need to spend $33.

3. no because i will have 6 dollars left.

4. yes and chill at home with my date, im sure he/she will understand unless they will help pay for it or ask parents.

JUSTIFYING ANSWER= i choose to be this way because first off i would save my money once i even found about homecoming.
