Answer:

73 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

The question seems to be incomplete because the model is missing, I found a similar question with the addition of the model, so if we can solve it (see attached image).

We have that the model would be:

y = 43.81 - 0.395 * x

We need to solve for x, if y = 15

Replacing:

15 = 43.81 - 0.395 * x

Solving for x we have:

0.395 * x = 43.81 - 15

0.395 * x = 28.81

x = 28.81 / 0.395

x = 72.9

We are asked to round to the nearest number therefore x = 73.

The car will average 15 miles per gallon at the speed of 73 miles per hour.

The answer is 41 miles


Imagine the diagonal distance is called c
Using Pythagorean theorem 40^2 + 9^2 = c^2
1600 + 81 = c^2
The square root of 1681 is 41
So c = 41
