Gas Prices.... Part 2 !!!

Miss Slawinski and I carpool when we can to save on gas. (I like to make her drive in the winter because I get so nervous in the snow!) Every time, we get off the freeway and drive past the BP on Rt. 306 - I get excited because gas prices have fallen... a lot! Check out the article below.http://money.cnn.com/2008/11/12/news/economy/_prices/index.htm?postversion=2008111209One of your first posts were about filling your gas tank. Now, with the new gas price in the article, find how much it would cost to fill your tank. Find the difference between what you would have paid a month ago to now. One more thing - find me the lowest local gas price in Lake County!Part Two: The ReasonNow, although I actually don't mind filling my 12 gallon tank for $1.94 a gallon, I read the article below to learn more about why gas prices are falling. Check it out, especially paragraph 4. Write a paragraph about this article and what you learned.http://www.time.com/time/business/article/0,8599,1850413,00.html?iid=sphere-inline-sidebar ----------------------- I with the crazy gas prices fluctuating, I was curious to see how much gas would cost me, even at its lowest price. So, I used this equation to figure it out: 350 miles a week/29.5mpg x $1.73 =$ 20.53!!! Compared to the $50.40 that i t would have cost before, when gas was around $4.00!!! Just in a few months, I saved $29. 87 dollars!! WOW thats a lot of cash!! THEN...... The lowest gas price that I found in Lake County
