A contractor has 12 gallons of paint which will cover 2,712 square feet. Which of the following rates best represents the relationships between the number of square feet and the number of gallons of paint? A. 226 gallons of paint per square foot
B. 2,712 gallons of paint per square foot
C. 226 square feet per gallon of paint
D. 12 square feet per gallon of paint

the required function is .

step-by-step explanation:

from the given table it is noticed that the graph passing through (-3,7), (0,4), (3,1) and (8,-4).

it is a linear function because the value of y is decrease by one as the value of x increase by 1.

the slope of the function is

the slope of the function is -1 and the y-intercept is 4.

the slope intercept form is

where, m is slope and b is y-intercept.

therefore the required function is . the graph of this function is shown below.

investment b is an ordinary annuity with $3,909.64 in the account after one year.
