(a) Truck carries 90 gallons of diesel fuel to 660 miles.

So, 1 gallon of diesel fuel to 660/90 = 22/3 miles.

30 gallons of diesel fuel to = 220 miles.

Hence, if x-axis represents the number of miles and y-axis represents the number of gallons, then, (660, 90) and (220, 30) are points on the graph.

Join (660, 90) and (220, 30), we get the graph of a line.

Note that (0, 0) is also a point on the line.

Equation of the line is .

(b) x represents the number of miles. Therefore, the possible values for x is the closed interval [0, 660].

Hence, the domain of the function is [0, 660].

Check the picture below.

$\bf slope = m = \cfrac{rise}{run} \implies 
\cfrac{ f(x_2) - f(x_1)}{ x_2 - x_1}\impliedby 
\begin{array}{llll}
average~rate\\
of~change
\end{array}\\\\
-------------------------------\\\\
\begin{cases}
x_1=\frac{3\pi }{2}\\
x_2=2\pi 
\end{cases}\implies \cfrac{f(2\pi )-f\left( \frac{3\pi }{2} \right)}{2\pi -\frac{3\pi }{2} }\implies \cfrac{3-1}{\frac{4\pi -3\pi }{2}}\implies \cfrac{2}{\quad \frac{\pi}{2}\quad }\implies \cfrac{4}{\pi }$

alukav5142 [94]

Answer:

Option E.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the intended length of Rebecca's swimming is = x units

and we assume the length of the pool = l units

Now it is given in the question that " She covers one fifth of her intended distance "

That means distance covered = $\frac{x}{5}$

" After swimming six more lengths of the pool she had covered one quarter of her intended distance"

So $\frac{x}{5}+6(l)=\frac{x}{4}$

$6l=\frac{x}{4}-\frac{x}{5}$

$6l=\frac{x}{20}$

x = 20×(6l)

x = 120l

Therefore, Rebecca has to complete 120 lengths of the pool.

Option E is the answer.
