Answer:
a) -3 gallons per hour
b) y = -3x +14
Step-by-step explanation:
Rate of change is computed by dividing the amount of change by the interval over which it occurred.
<h3>a)</h3>
Here the amount of gas decreased from 14 to 2 gallons, so a decrease of 14-2 = 12 gallons. That occurred over a 4-hour period, so the rate of change is (-12 gallons)/(4 hours) = -3 gallons/hour.
__
<h3>b)</h3>
The initial amount was 14 gallons, so the equation for the line describing remaining gas will be ...
y = -3x +14 . . . . gas in the tank after x hours

Answer:
48.6%
Step-by-step explanation:
Efficiency of energy conversion is the quotient of output energy and input energy.
(3291 J)/(6771 J) × 100% ≈ 48.6%
The solar panel's conversion efficiency is about 48.6%.
_____
<em>Additional comment</em>
With current (2021) technology, the best efficiency one can expect from a solar panel is in the neighborhood of 23%.
We know that
AB = 10x + 4
BC = 4x - 3
AC = 12x + 16
We need to find x, AB and BC.
The solution of the question is based on the assumption that the point A, B and C are col-linear, i.e. they lie on the same line, and B lies between A and C
⇒ AB + BC = AC
Substituting the values of AB, BC and AC in terms of x in the above equation, and solving the linear equation.
⇒ 10x+4 + 4x-3 = 12x+16
⇒ 14x+1 = 12x+16
⇒ 2x = 15
⇒ x = 7.5
Substituting the value of x in 10x+4 to determine the length of AB
AB = 10x+4
⇒ AB = (10×7.5)+4
⇒ AB = 75+4
⇒ AB = 79
Hence, AB is 79 units
Substituting the value of x in 4x-3 to determine the length of BC
BC = 4x-3
⇒ BC = (4×7.5)-3
⇒ BC = 30-3
⇒ BC = 27
Hence, BC is 27 units
