Answer:
number of times feliz can drive to or from work with the gas in his tank is 10 times
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's start by reviewing the slope-intercept formula:
y = mx + b
At the start of the journey, we have a tank that's 5/6 full and have yet to go anywhere. That means that our b is 5/6.
Thus:
y = mx + 5/6
Now, every time he drives to or from work, be loses 1/12 of a full tank.
Thus;
y = -(1/12)x + 5/6
negative because the initial volume of gas is decreasing whenever he goes out.
Now, to get the number of times feliz can drive to or from work with the gas in his tank, y = 0.
Thus,
0 = -(1/12)x + 5/6
Add (1/12)x to both sides to give;
(1/12)x = 5/6
x = 5/6 ÷ 1/12
x = 10
