Question

The manager is considering upgrading to a new van that promises better fuel efficiency. He recorded the fuel efficiency of the company's current van during several recent deliveries. The data shows the fuel efficiency based on the distances traveled on six trips.

Trip Distance traveled (miles) Fuel Efficiency (miles per gallon)

1 120 8.0

2 150 9.0

3 180 8.5

4 220 7.5

5 260 8.0

6 300 9.5

b) The manager wishes to visualize the data. Create a graph that plots the points representing the trips described in the table.

c) The new van the manager plans to purchase is advertised to have a fuel efficiency of 10 miles per gallon. To the nearest percent, how much greater is the fuel efficiency of the new van compared to the lowest fuel efficiency recorded for the current van?

d) Considering the roads on the provided map, how many different routes can the van take to travel from Oakridge to Greenfield and then to Rivertown? (Assume the map has a similar structure to the one you uploaded, but with two possible paths from Oakridge to Greenfield and two from Greenfield to Rivertown.)
