Answer:
(a): 26.1
(b): 27.9
Please see below for the steps.
Step-by-step explanation:
(a):
Use points (0,0) and (3, 78.3)
Use slope formula. The slope formula is also used to find average rate of change (just so you know).
y2-y1/x2-x1
78.3-0/3-0=78.3/3=26.1
Answer for (a) is 26.1
(b):
Use points (4, 147.6) and (9, 287.1)
Use slope formula.
y2-y1/x2-x1
287.1-147.6/9-4=139.5/5=27.9
The answer for (b) is 27.9
Hope this helps!

Answer:
- premium: 165 gallons
- water: 120 gallons
Step-by-step explanation:
Let 'a' represent the amount of 95% antifreeze in the mix. Then the amount of water is (285 -a). The mix has this amount of antifreeze in it:
0.95a +0(285 -a) = 0.55(285)
a = 0.55/0.95(285) = 165 . . . gallons of 95%
285 -a = 285 -165 = 120 . . . . gallons of water
There are 120 gallons of water and 165 gallons of premium antifreeze in the mixture.
