Black Dragon and Red Rocket each have 18-gallon fuel tanks. Wild Thing and Lucky Lady have 20-gallon fuel tanks. Match the linear equation that could be used to model the fuel remaining, f, in each car after t seconds.
	
1.	Wild Thing      A. f(s) = 18 - 2.14s
2.	Red Rocket     B. f(s) = 20 - 2.68s
3.	Lucky Lady      C. f(s) = 20 - 3.06s
4.	Black Dragon   D. f(s) = 18 - 2.33s
Those are the correct answers for the graph and it is needed for my original question i am lost on this problem please help me thankyou

if you divide fuel used by time and match the (s) you will get your answer.

ie

black dragon: 14.2/6.1 =2.33  you see 4 is D and so on and so on....
