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.

Juliette [100K]

Answer: 0.4667

Step-by-step explanation:

According to 68–95–99.7 rule , About  99.7% of all data values lies with in 3 standard deviations from population mean (\mu).

Here , margin of error = 3s , where s is standard deviation.

As per given , we have want our sample mean \overline{x} to estimate μ μ with an error of no more than 1.4 point in either direction.

If 99.7% of all samples give an \overline{x} within 1.4 , it means that

3s=1.4

Divide boths ides by 3 , we get

s=0.466666666667\approx0.4667

Hence, So \overline{x} must have 0.4667 as standard deviation so that 99.7 % 99.7% of all samples give an \overline{x} within 1.4 point of μ .

egoroff_w [7]
Hi there! 5 bottles of water for $3 would make $0.60 per bottle. 0.6 * 15 = 9. That means 15 bottles of water should equal $9, but instead it is $8. Based on that, no. The costs for bottles of water is not proportional to the numbers sold. Basically, you can divide to find unit prices and multiply the number of another item to see if the numbers are proportional.
