Answer : To the nearest cent, the Total Natural Gas Charges is $38

Number of therms = 35.4

Let the number of therms = x

The modeled equation is

Total Natural Gas Charges = 11.72 + 0.75214 x number of therms

Since, number of therms = x

Total Natural Gas Charges = 11.72 + 0.75214x

Since, the number of therms = 35.4

Hence, x = 35.4

Total Natural Gas Charges 11.72 + 0.75214 x 35.4

Total Natural Gas Charges = 11.72 + 26.626

Total natural Gas Charges = $38.346

To the nearest cent, the Total Natural Gas Charges is $38

Number of therms = 35.4
