Answer:

The vehicle covers 126 miles on 7 gallons of fuel.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The distance traveled is directly proportional to the amount of fuel.

For F gallons of fuel distance traveled D miles can be given as:

D ∝ F

D=kF

where k is constant of proportionality.

The vehicle covers D=90 miles on F=5 gallons.

So

90=k(5)

Dividing both sides by 5.

\frac{90}{5}=\frac{k(5)}{5}

18=k

∴ k=18

When F=7 gallons

D=(18)(7)

D=126 miles

∴ The vehicle covers 126 miles on 7 gallons of fuel.

I don't know what I'm doing wrong here, can anyone help?
Novosadov [1.4K]

if you look at the part where the first part connects with the second part:

y = 5 if x < - 2

y = -2x + 1 if  -2 ≤ x < 1

we don't have a discontinuity there, so there shouldn't be a dot.

<h3></h3><h3>What is wrong with the graph?</h3>

When we graph over intervals like (a, b) or [a, b] or something like that, we use dots to define the end of the intervals, and to denote that the function ends abruptly or we have a jump.

In this case, you can see that between the end and the second part and the beginning of the third part there is a jump, so the use of dots is correct there, but if you look at the part where the first part connects with the second part:

y = 5 if x < - 2

y = -2x + 1 if  -2 ≤ x < 1

we don't have a discontinuity there, so there shouldn't be a dot.

That is the only error with the graph.
