Answer:
a) Table and graph showed
b) The distance will be 231 miles
c) Yes
Step-by-step explanation:
We know the van gets 22 mi/gal, so the distance D in miles traveled by the van can be expressed as
D(g)=22g, being g the number of gallons of gas used
a) The graph of the function D and its corresponding table of values is shown below.
b) If the van used g=10.5 gallons of gas, the distance would be:
D(10.5)=22 x 10.5 = 231 miles
c) The values of g are real in nature because they represent the amount of gas consumed by the van and it can be any real positive number. Being D a linear function of g, it also happens to take positive real values. Then it makes sense to connect the points with lines.
Answer:
(22,0)
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Select any two points given and find their slope (rise/run)
(-38, 40) and (-23, 30)
slope = = - 2/3
2. Use the slope and one of the points to create an equation of the line in the format y = mx + b, where m = slope and b = y-intercept.
y = mx + b ⇒ 40 = -2/3 (-38) + b
3. Solve for b
40 = -2/3 (-38) + b
40 = 76/3 + b
40 - 76/3 = b
b = 44/3
4. To find the x-intercept, set y = 0, and solve.
y = -2/3 x + 44/3
0 = -2/3 x + 44/3
2/3 x = 44/3
x = 22
