Answer:

gas left after 3 hours = 4.75

gas left after t hours = 10-1.75t

Explanation:

According to DeltaMath "Since Camila uses 1.75 gallons of gas per hour, she would use 1.75 x 5, or 5.25 gallons in 3 hours. Since Camila started with 10 gallons in the tank, the amount of remaining after 3 hours would be 10-5.25 or 4.75 gallons. "
