Energy tax A proposed energy tax T on gasoline, which would affect the cost of driving a vehicle, is to be computed by multiplying the number x of gallons of gasoline that you buy by 125,000 (the number of BTUs per gallon of gasoline) and then multiplying the total BTUs by the tax—34.2 cents per million BTUs. Find a linear function for T in terms of x.
