For part A, The answer is that the car gets better gas mileage. We can see it from the graph that the number of gallons used is on the X axis, and the distance traveled using those number of gallons is on the Y axis. The easiest way to compare would be to look at the 1 gallon of gas. You can see that you can travel 25 miles on 1 gallon of gas. The truck on the other hand will get you 18 miles per gallon. Imagine putting 1 in for X, the Y value would be 18 if you did this. The graph just shows us a visual way of saying the same thing. To determine how much farther the car with a girl on 8 gallons of gas, you would just multiply 8 by 25 for the number of miles traveled by the car. You would multiply 8 by 18 to find the number of miles traveled for the truck. The answers are 200 miles for the car and 144 miles for the truck. 200-144=56 miles farther for the car.
(A) because it is reflecting over the x-axis.
Answer:
12x
Step-by-step explanation:
4x+2x+4x+2x=12x
F(x) = |2x-1|-5
f(x) = |2*(x)-1|-5
f(-3) = |2*(-3)-1|-5 ... replace every x with -3
f(-3) = |-6-1|-5
f(-3) = |-7|-5
f(-3) = 7-5
f(-3) = 2 which is the final answer
Side Note: the vertical bars mean "absolute value" which represents distance. Negative distance makes no sense which is why absolute value results are never negative.
