The fuel efficiency for a certain midsize car is given by E(V) = -0.018V2 + 1.620V + 3.7 where E(v) is the fuel efficiency in miles per gallon for a car traveling v miles per hour. (a) What speed will yield the maximum fuel efficiency? Round to the nearest mile per hour. mph (b) What is the maximum fuel efficiency for this car? Round to the nearest mile per gallon. mpg Need Help? Read It Watch It Talk to a...
Stan Moneymaker has been informed of a major automobile manufacturer?s plan to conserve on gasoline consumption through improved engine design. The idea is called engine displacement, and it works by switching from 8-cylinder operation to 4-cylinder operation at approximately 40 miles per hour. Engine displacement allows enough power to accelerate from a standstill and to climb hills while also permitting the automobile to cruise at speeds over 40 miles per hour with little loss in driving performance. The trade literature...
Gas mileage actually varies slightly with the driving speed of a car (as well as with highway vs. city driving). Suppose your car averages 31 miles per gallon on the highway if your average speed is 54 miles per hour, and it averages 29 miles per gallon on the highway if your average speed is 69 miles per hour. Answer parts (a) and (b) below. a. What is the driving time for a 3000-mile trip if you drive at an...
How does the fuel consumption of a car change as its speed increases? Here are data for a 2014 Chevrolet Cruze Turbo Diesel. Speed is measured in miles per hour, and fuel consumption is measured in miles per gallon. Speed 10 20 30 40 50 60 70 80 Fuel 38.1 54.0 68.4 63.6 60.5 55.4 50.6 43.8 a. Make a scatterplot.

Your small remodeling business has two work vehicles. One is a small passenger car used for job-site visits and for other general business purposes. The other is a heavy truck used to haul equipment. The car gets 25 miles per gallon (mpg). The truck gets 10 mpg. You want to improve gas mileage to save money, and you have enough money to upgrade one vehicle. The upgrade cost will be the same for both vehicles. An upgraded car will get...
