Answer:

(a) The graph is shown below.

(b) Domain : [0,90]

(c) Origin represents the initial position of the truck.

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) Let no. of miles be y and no. of gallons be x. Then, initially x=0 and y=0 and when x=90 then y=660 . The equation of this determined by formula:

y-y_{1}=m\cdot (x-x_1) , m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}\\m=\frac{22}{3}\\y=\frac{22}{3}\cdot x

So the corresponding graph for this equation is given below :

(b) Domain : [0,90]

(c) Origin represents the initial position of truck when no. of gallons used is 0 and no. of miles covered is 0
