Given :
Maximum capacity of fuel tank , M = 14 gallon .
It can travel approximately 26 miles with one gallon of gas.
To Find :
A function d(x), that gives the distance the Escape can travel with x gallons of gas in the tank.
Solution :
Car can travel 26 miles in one gallon of gas.
So , distance covered in x gallon of gas :
( Here, 0 ≤ x ≤ 14 ) or x ∈ [ 0 , 14 ] .
Hence , this is the required solution.
