Answer:
The car uses less gas
They use the same amount of gas after 
miles
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
The table represents the car mileage
--- The van
First, calculate the car's slope (m)
From the table, we have:
So, we have:
Calculate the equation using:
implies that for every mile traveled, the car uses 1/40 gallon of gas
Also:
--- The van
By comparison to: 
This implies that for every mile traveled, the van uses 1/5 gallon of gas.
By comparison:
This means that the car uses less gas
Solving (b): Distance traveled for them to use the same amount of gas.
We have:
--- The van
--- The car

Step-by-step explanation:
(a) Fₙ₋₁ > 0, so Fₙ₊₁ > Fₙ. Each term is bigger than the one before it, so the function is increasing, meaning the series will diverge to infinity.
(b) Fₙ₊₁ / Fₙ = (Fₙ + Fₙ₋₁) / Fₙ
Divide.
Fₙ₊₁ / Fₙ = 1 + (Fₙ₋₁ / Fₙ)
Rewrite the second fraction using negative exponent.
Fₙ₊₁ / Fₙ = 1 + (Fₙ / Fₙ₋₁)⁻¹
Take the limit of both sides as n approaches infinity.
lim(n→∞) Fₙ₊₁ / Fₙ = 1 + lim(n→∞) (Fₙ / Fₙ₋₁)⁻¹
Substitute with φ.
φ = 1 + φ⁻¹
Solve.
φ² = φ + 1
φ² − φ − 1 = 0
φ = [ -(-1) ± √((-1)² − 4(1)(-1)) ] / 2(1)
φ = (1 ± √5) / 2
Since the ratio can't be negative:
φ = (1 + √5) / 2
Answer:
y = 0.5 cosine (4 (x - pi/2)) - 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Taking the general form:
y = A cosine (Bx - Cπ)) + D
In the following case. the constants are:
y = 0.5 cosine (4x - 2π)) - 2
A: 0.5
B: 4
C: 2π
D: -2
The range of this function is:
range = [-|A|+D, |A|+D]
range = [-0.5-2, 0.5-2]
range = [-2.5, -1.5]
Which coincides with "It has a maximum at negative 1.5 and a minimum at negative 2.5"
At x = 0, the function value is:
y = 0.5 cosine (4(0) - 2π)) - 2
y = 0.5 - 2 = -1.5
As indicated in "a curve crosses the y-axis at y = negative 1.5"
The period of the function is:
period: 2π/B
period = 2π/4 = π/2 or 2 cycles at π
as described in "It goes through 2 cycles at pi."
