The type of function that can be used to model the data and then to estimate the mileage after
Answer to Problem 18Q
Linear function is used to model the data and mileage after
Explanation of Solution
Given information: A table containing data-values of time and distance is given.
Calculation:
Calculating the distance travelled per month,
As the distance travelled each month is same in all cases, linear function can be used to model the data,
Slope intercept form:
where
Distance travelled per month calculated before is itself the slope
When
Substituting the values derived so far in slope-intercept form,
Putting
Thus, linear function is used to model the data and mileage after
