Answer:
not linear
Step-by-step explanation:
this equation becomes y = -4x² + 32x which is a quadratic equation that, when graphed, forms an upside down u-shaped curve (upside down because the x² term is negative; if it's positive then the curve is u-shaped)
For this case we have the following function:
Where,
g: number of gallons of gas
M (g): number of miles that Danny's truck travels
We know that the maximum capacity is 20 gallons of gas.
Therefore, the maximum distance the truck can travel is given by:
Thus, the domain of the function is:

The range of the function is:
Answer:
A domain and range that are reasonable for the function are:
D. D: 0 ≤ g ≤ 20
R: 0 ≤ M (g) ≤ 340
Longer leg = x + 4
Shorter leg = x
Hypotenuse = x + 8
Using Pythagorean Theorem:
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
(x + 4)^2 + x^2 = (x + 8)^2
x^2 + 8x + 16 + x^2 = x^2 + 16x + 64
2x^2 + 8x + 16 = x^2 + 16x + 64
2x^2 +8x = x^2 + 16x + 48
2x^2 - 8x = x^2 + 48
x^2 - 8x = 48
x^2 - 8x - 48 = 0
You can complete the square from here or use the quadratic formula.
Completing the square:
x^2 - 8x = 48
x^2 - 8x + (-8/2)^2 = 48 + (-8/2)^2
x^2 - 8x + 16 = 48 + 16
(x - 4)(x - 4) = 64 or (x - 4)^2 = 64
x - 4 = +√64 OR x - 4 = -√64
x - 4 = +8 OR x - 4 = -8
x = 12 OR x = -4
However, you can't use negative 4 as a length because your length needs to be a positive.
So x will be 12.
Shorter leg: 12
Longer leg: 12 + 4
Hypotenuse: 12 + 8
The slope of y = 3x - 4 on the interval [2, 5] is 3 and the slope of y = 2x^2-4x - 2 on the interval [2, 5] is 10
<h3>How to determine the slope?</h3>
The interval is given as:
x = 2 to x = 5
The slope is calculated as:

<u>16. y = 3x - 4</u>
Substitute 2 and 5 for x
y = 3*2 - 4 = 2
y = 3*5 - 4 = 11
So, we have:


Divide
m = 3
Hence, the slope of y = 3x - 4 on the interval [2, 5] is 3
<u>17. y = 2x^2-4x - 2</u>
Substitute 2 and 5 for x
y = 2 * 2^2 - 4 * 2 - 2 = -2
y = 2 * 5^2 - 4 * 5 - 2 = 28
So, we have:


Divide
m = 10
Hence, the slope of y = 2x^2-4x - 2 on the interval [2, 5] is 10
