Question

The car gets miles to the gallon after the car has traveled miles 2 2/3 gallons of gas have Ben consumed

Answer 1

Let the Distance traveled by car = X miles

Then amount of gas consumed= Y gallons

As car travels more distance, amount of gas consumption will increase.

So,⇒Amount of gas Consumption=k× Distance traveled by car

Where k is sign of proportionality.

⇒Y = k X

This is equation in two variable of a line passing through the origin.

Drawn the Graph for you below

If X=1, Y=1

then k=1/1=1

If X=2, Y=2, then k=1

It shows uniform motion of car.
