In the question it is already given that Eric drove for 439.92 miles on 15.6 gallons. It is required to find the distance traveled on 39.7 gallons of gas. Also we have to find the answer to the nearest hundredth.
Then,
In 15.6 gallons Eric can drive for a distance = 439.92 miles
In 39.7 gallons Eric can drive for a distance = [(439.92/15.6) * 39.7] miles
= 1119.54 miles
So the total distance traveled by Eric is 1120 miles with 39.7 gallons of gas. The answer has been calculated to the nearest hundredth.
The slope intercept form is y = mx + c.
The quantity given by the constant term c, is the vertical or y intercept.
It is the point where the line cuts the y axis, and this point, x = 0.
This just wants the derivative which you can solve for.
You can do this using a negative expononet or using ...the rational rule forget its name*.... you shoudl get 9000/(t+12)^2
*Quotient rule
The inverse will be 2x+3/4 or D in your picture
