<h3>Answer: Approximately -0.0742857 grams per year</h3>

======================================================

Work Shown:

x = year

y = amount of hydrocarbon emissions in grams, per mile driven

m = rate of change = slope

m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

m = (0.8 - 3.4)/(2007 - 1972)

m = -2.6/35

m = -0.0742857 approximately

The approximate rate of change is about -0.0742857 grams per year. The negative rate of change indicates the per mile hydrocarbon amount has gone down by about 0.0742857 grams each year.

we'd do the same as before on this one as well.

if we take 27.99 to be the 100%, what is 12 off of it in percentage?

\bf \begin{array}{ccll} amount&\%\\ \cline{1-2} 27.99&100\\ 12&x \end{array}\implies \cfrac{27.99}{12}=\cfrac{100}{x}\implies 27.99x=1200 \\\\\\ x=\cfrac{1200}{27.99}\implies x\approx 42.87

It took Max 3.5 hours to cover a certain route walking at a rate of 2.4 mph. How long would it take Max to cover the same route
andrew11 [14]
It would take 2.8 hours ((3.5 hours x 2.4 Mph)/3Mph) hours for Max to cover the same route walking 3 mph. This problem can be solved by using the velocity equation which is the velocity is equal a change in position divided by a change of time. The amount of time can be found assuming that Max walks in a constant velocity from the starting point until the finish point of 8.4 miles distance (3.5 hours x 2.4 mph)<span>.</span>
