A gas station sells 1600 gallons of gasoline per hour if it charges $ 2.70 per gallon but only 900 gallons per hour if it charges $ 2.95 per gallon. Assuming a linear model
(a) How many gallons would be sold per hour of the price is $ 2.90 per gallon?

(b) What must the gasoline price be in order to sell 1300 gallons per hour?

Look just at finding the linear model. Two points. Use price per gallon for x and gallons per hour sold for y. Your two points (x,y) are (2.15,1600) and (2.55,800).

Slope m=%281600-800%29%2F%280.15-0.55%29

m=800%2F0.40

m=2000

Using point-slope form for a line, and the lower-y point,

y-800=2000%28x-2.55%29

highlight%28y=2000%28x-2.55%29%2B800%29

i'm sorry i don't know
