Question

Karl set out to Alaska on his truck. The amount of fuel remaining in the truck's tank (in liters) as a function of distance driven (in kilometers) is graphed.
What distance did Karl travel by the time he had 200 liters of fuel?

_____ kilometers​

Answer 1

Answer:

500 kilometers

Step-by-step explanation:

The fuel (y) Karl has in his car is a function of the distance (x) Karl travelled. The amount of fuel (y) is dependent on the distance (x) Karl travelled.

On the y-axis, we have amount of fuel.

On the x-axis, we have distance travelled.

At the time Karl travelled when he had 200 liters of fuel (y) remaining in his car, he had travelled a distance (x) of 500 kilometers.

We know this by looking at the graph given. When x (distance) = 500, y (fuel) = 200.
