Answer: The black will filled by (1) -0.04, (2) 1 , (3)-0.04 and (4) Change in the fuel remaining in each mile.
Explanation:
From the given table we can noticed that the fuel remaining (gallons) decreases as distance (miles).
It is clear that the distance increases by 1 mile for each next row and the remaining fuel is changed for each next row is,
[tex]change=13.46-13.50=-0.04[/tex]
The change in fuel remaining from one row to the next in the table is -0.04 gallons.
The change in distance from one row to the next in the table is 1 mile.
The slope is the rate of change of remaining fuel with respect to change in distance.
[tex]m=\frac{-0.04}{1} =-0.04[/tex]
The slope of the line that runs through the points given in the table is -0.04.
The slope indicates a Change in the fuel remaining in each mile. The slope is -0.04 it means the remaining fuel decreases by 0.04 gallons in each mile.
