Question

A jetliner uses 3,600 gallons of fuel per hour while it is cruising, and there are 15,000 gallons of fuel in the jetliner's fuel tank when it begins to cruise. If y represents the amount of fuel, in thousands of gallons, remaining in the fuel tank after the jetliner cruises for x hours, determine the graph of the solution set for this situation and the equation modeled by the graph.

Answer 1

if graph is needed to be chosen too then its graph a

Explanation:

Answer 2

y = 15 - 3.6x.

Explanation:

The initial amount of fuel before cruising begins = 15,000 gallons.

The equation is y = 15 - 3.6x where y is in thousands of gallons and x = number of hours.
