The Beechcraft 1900D is a commuter airplane with a fuel capacity of 665 gallons. The function that represents how the amount of

fuel changes as a function of distance flown is f(x)=−0.9x+665, where x represents miles flown, and f(x) represents the amount of fuel remaining. What is the rate of change for this scenario?

Given:

The  function that represents how the amount of fuel changes as a function of distance flown is

f(x)=-0.9x+665

where x represents miles flown, and f(x) represents the amount of fuel remaining.

To find:

The rate of change for this scenario.

Solution:

The slope intercept form of a linear function is

y=mx+b        ...(i)

Where, m is the slope or rate of change and b is the y-intercept.

We have,

f(x)=-0.9x+665        ...(ii)

On comparing (i) and (ii), we get

m=-0.9

Therefore, the rate of change for this scenario is -0.9. It means, the amount of fuel in the airplane is decreasing by 0.9 gallons per mile.

nevsk [136]
Well, to find out how many times 20.4 can split into 3.4, you need to divide 20.4÷3.4 and you will get 6, and Katrin (K-A-T-R-I-N) is 6 letters, so you have enough room, the answer is yes.

Answer:

  140°

Step-by-step explanation:

Angles 1 and 3 are "corresponding" angles, so are congruent.

  ∠1 = ∠3

  20x +60 = 30x +20

  40 = 10x . . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 20x+20

  4 = x . . . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 10

  ∠1 = 20x +60 = 20(4) +60 = 80 +60

  ∠1 = 140°
