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.

Match the fractions with Equivalent percentages
Mrrafil [7]

In order to match each of the pairs you need to divide the numerator by the denominator to make it into a decimal.

Below are the pairs:

21/25 = 84%

13/20 = 65%

2/5 = 40%

3/4 = 75%

3/5 = 60%

Kyla spends 60 Minutes of each day exercising. Let d be the number of days that Kyla exercises, and let m represent the total nu
stealth61 [152]

Answer: There is linear relationship between the number of days that Kyla exercise in the total minutes that she exercises.

The independent variable is 'd' and m is the dependent variable which depends on the number of days she exercise.

The linear equation for the situation is given by

m=60d

Step-by-step explanation:

Let d be the number of days that Kyla exercises, and let m represent the total numbers of minutes she exercise.

Kyla spends 60 Minutes of each day exercising which is constant .

Then the total numbers of minutes she exercise(m) in d days is given by

m=60d which is the linear equation.

The relationship between the number of days that Kyla exercise in the total minutes that she exercises is linear, where d is the independent variable, and m is the dependent variable which depends on the number of days she exercise.

[ad d increases m increases by rate of 60 minutes per day]

The linear equation for the situation is given by

m=60d
