Let
x---------> represent the number of miles Troy's has driven
y--------> represent the amount of gas in Troy's truck
we know that
the equation that represents the amount of gas, y, in troy' s truck after driving a certain number of miles, x is

where
m is the slope---------> 
in this problem the slope is equal to 
it's negative because the tank is going to be consumed
assuming he starts with a full tank

substitute in the formula above

therefore
the answer is
the equation 
Answer:
a.
μ = $24.57
μ ≠ $24.57
b. 0.12
c. we fail to reject the null hypothesis since p ≈0.12 > 0.05
d. we fail to reject the null hypothesis since z ≈-1.6 > -1.96
Step-by-step explanation:
a)
μ = $24.57
μ ≠ $24.57
b)
To compute p value, we need to calculate z-score of $23.89 per hour. in the distribution assumed under null hypothesis
z-score can be calculated as follows:
where
- X= $23.89
- M is the mean value under null hypothesis ( $24.57)
- s is the sample standard deviation ($2.40)
- N is the sample size (30)
Putting the numbers in the formula we get
≈ −1,5518
The corresponding p-value is <em>two tailed </em>and ≈ 0.12
c)
since p ≈0.12 > 0.05 <em>we fail to reject the null hypothesis.</em>
d)
Critical value for the 0.05 significance level in two tailed test is :
c(z)=-1.96 Since z≈ −1,6 >-1.96, it is not in the critcal region, therefore <em>we fail to reject the null hypothesis. </em>
The formula for interval estimate would be: μ = M ± Z(<span>sM</span>)
Where: μ is estimate
M is the mean
Z is the z value
(<span>sM</span>) is the standard
error
μ = M ± Z(<span>sM</span>)
n = 200 rather than 50 (√200 = 2√50)
<span>⇒ ME = (1/2) * 1.32 = .66</span>
<span>Using the formula above, plugging this in will give us: μ
= 19.76 ± .66</span>
<span> = 19.76 ± .66 is
the confidence interval or interval estimate</span>

Determine the cost of k kilogram

Multiply both sides by k


Representing this as a function:

51/9 = 17/3. That is the answer.
