2834 - 2529 = 305 miles traveled
75.2 / 4.64 = 16.4 gallons used
305 / 16.4 = 18.5 miles per gallon
The limo did not use 1 gallon every 20 miles.
The limo used 1 gallon every 18.5 miles
The answer to this problem is -10x^2t-6st to get this answer or this problem you must use the product rule formula x^a x^b=x^a=b
Check the picture below, that's just an example of a parabola opening upwards.
so the cost equation C(b), which is a quadratic with a positive leading term's coefficient, has the graph of a parabola like the one in the picture, so the cost goes down and down and down, reaches the vertex or namely the minimum, and then goes back up.
bearing in mind that the quantity will be on the x-axis and the cost amount is over the y-axis, what are the coordinates of the vertex of this parabola? namely, at what cost for how many bats?

Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define</u>
N(y) = -3y - 7
N(1) is y = 1
<u>Step 2: Evaluate</u>
- Substitute in <em>y</em> [Function]: N(1) = -3(1) - 7
- [Function] Multiply: N(1) = -3 - 7
- [Function] Subtract: N(1) = -10
