Hurry! A FedEx freight truck carries three tons of packages 660 miles on 90 gallons of diesel fuel from Miami, Fl to Atlanta, Ga

. FedEx makes a graph to represent the miles per gallon the truck uses.
(a) Sketch a graph to represent the situation. Use one axis to represent the number of miles and the other axis to represent the number of gallons. Label your intercepts.

(b) What is the domain in this situation? explain you answer.

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

A population of mice is increasing exponentially. On Monday there were 120 most. One month later there were 132 most. Ready func
djyliett [7]

Answer:

y=120 * 1.1^x --- function

The monthly rate is 10%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Let

x \to months

y \to mice

So, we have:

(x_1,y_1) = (0,120) --- Monday

(x_2,y_2) = (1,132) --- One month later

Required

The function

The function is represented as:

y=ab^x

In (x_1,y_1) = (0,120), we have:

120 = a * b^0

120 = a * 1

120 = a

a=120

In (x_2,y_2) = (1,132), we have:

132 = a * b^1

132 = a * b

Substitute: a=120

132 = 120 * b

Solve for b

b = \frac{132}{120}

b = 1.1

So, the function is:

y=ab^x

y=120 * 1.1^x

To calculate the monthly rate (r), we have:

y =a(1 + r)^x

Compare to: y =ab^x

1 + r = b

Make r the subject

r = b-1

Substitute b = 1.1

r = 1.1-1

r = 0.1

Express as percentage

r = 0.1*100\%

r = 10\%

Aleks [24]

Answer:

Defining variable: x = per week

Equation: 37 + 6.5x = 9 + 8.25x

Answer: 16 weeks

Step-by-step explanation:

x = per week

Jack:

37 + 6.5x

Diane:

9 + 8.25x

Equation:

37 + 6.5x = 9 + 8.25x

-1.75x = -28

x = 16
