Question 294

Multiple Choice

Solve the problem.
-Gas mileage is tested for a car under different driving conditions. At lower speeds, the car is driven in stop and go traffic. At higher speeds, the car must overcome more wind resistance. The variable x
Given in the table represents the speed (in mph) for a compact car, and m(x) represents the gas mileage
(in mpg) . Use regression to find a quadratic function to model the data. x253035404550556065m(x) 20.724.42728.428.727.825.822.618.3\begin{array}{c|ccccccccc}x & 25 & 30 & 35 & 40 & 45 & 50 & 55 & 60 & 65 \\\hline m(x) & 20.7 & 24.4 & 27 & 28.4 & 28.7 & 27.8 & 25.8 & 22.6 & 18.3\end{array}
