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.
