The fuel capacity of a popular hybrid car is 11.9 gallons. The function for this situation is f(x) = -0.02x + 11.9, where x repr

esents miles and f(x) represents the amount of fuel remaining. What is the rate of change for this scenario?

Answer:

-0.02 gallons per mile

Step-by-step explanation:

You're in luck. The fuel consumption of the car is linear, and the slope - ie, the coefficent of the x term gives you the rate of change. In this case, it's -0.02 gallons per mile.

Write the slope-intercept form of the equation that passes through the given points. (separate equations for each of them)

guajiro [1.7K]

Answer:

Part 1) $y=-\frac{1}{5}x-1$

Part 2) $y=3x-16$

Part 3) $y=4$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The equation of the line into slope intercept form is equal to

$y=mx+b$

where

m is the slope

b is the y-intercept

Part 1) we have

(10,-3) (5,-2)

<u><em>Find the slope</em></u>

The formula to calculate the slope between two points is equal to

$m=\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}$

substitute

$m=\frac{-2+3}{5-10}$

$m=\frac{1}{-5}$

$m=-\frac{1}{5}$

<em>Find the value of b</em>

we have

$m=-\frac{1}{5}$

$point (10,-3)$

substitute in the equation $y=mx+b$ and solve for b

$-3=-\frac{1}{5}(10)+b$

$-3=-2+b$

$b=-3+2=-1$

substitute

$y=-\frac{1}{5}x-1$

Part 2) we have

(6,2) (7,5)

<u><em>Find the slope</em></u>

The formula to calculate the slope between two points is equal to

$m=\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}$

substitute

$m=\frac{5-2}{7-6}$

$m=\frac{3}{1}$

$m=3$

<em>Find the value of b</em>

we have

$m=3$

$point (6,2)$

substitute in the equation $y=mx+b$ and solve for b

$2=3(6)+b$

$2=18+b$

$b=2-18=-16$

substitute

$y=3x-16$

Part 3) we have

(4,4) (-7,4)

<u><em>Find the slope</em></u>

The formula to calculate the slope between two points is equal to

$m=\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}$

substitute

$m=\frac{4-4}{-7-4}$

$m=\frac{0}{-11}$

$m=0$

This is a horizontal line (parallel to the x-axis)

The y-intercept b is equal to the y-coordinate

<em>therefore</em>

The equation of the line is

$y=4$
