Answer:

x - 79.25

Explanation:

Let x represent the original amount of money that Ms. Liu had in her bank account.

Find how much money she spent on gasoline, by multiplying 15.85 by 5:

15.85(5)

= 79.25

To represent how much money she will have left, subtract this from x:

x - 79.25

So, the expression to find the change in her account is x - 79.25
