Answer:
y = -6x + 70
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the amount of oil in the tank decreases constantly, we need to create a linear function. Using the base form, y = mx + b, we can replace -6 for m because volume decreases by 6 (or increases by -6) each hour, and +70 for b because we start off with 70 liters of oil. So we get y = -6x + 70, with x representing the number of hours, and y representing the volume of oil remaining.
Yes; his answer is correct.
John can do this by multiple ways, but most likely he just remembered this one. Here are some ways.
1. He used his fingers; he put 1 finger, then another finger, and got 2 fingers up. The answer is 2.
