Answer:
y= - frac4/7 x + frac9/7
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
The denominators are not equal.
Step-by-step explanation:
(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].
(c) Origin represents that the truck is not moving and there is no diesel fuel loaded in the truck.
Since a serving is 1/2 cup and he needs 72 servings you can multiply 72 by 1/2 and find out that he needs to make 36 cups of punch. Two cups is a pint so he needs (36 / 2) 18 pints of juice. He already has the 8 pints of pineapple juice so 18 - 8 leaves 10 pints of orange juice.
