Answer: 14 gallons of gasoline.

Step-by-step explanation:

given data:

25(x + 3) = 424

where x is the number of gallon of gasoline needed to purchase.

Solution.

25(x + 3) = 424

first we open the bracket

25x + 75 = 424

collect like terms

25x = 424 – 75

25x = 349

divide both sides by 25

25x/25 = 349/25

x = 13.96

x = 14

mathew needs to get 14 gallons of gasoline.

I can't seem to find the answer for this I'm pretty sure it's non linear

Answer:

(d) No. Slope is not constant.

Step-by-step explanation:

You want to know if the given graph shows a linear function.

<h3>Linear function</h3>

The graph of a linear function is a straight line. The points on the graph shown do not form a straight line, so the function is nonlinear.

<h3>Rate of change</h3>

The rate of change of a function is the ratio of "rise" to "run" between two points in the graph. This ratio is also called the "slope." For a straight line, the rate of change (slope) is constant. That is, a linear function has a constant rate of change.

If the function is nonlinear, its rate of change is not constant. The converse is also true: if the slope is not constant, the function is nonlinear.
