3 A trainer for a soccer team keeps track of the amount of water players consume during practice. The trainer observes that the average amount of water consumed by the team is a linear function of the temperature. The graph and equation for this function are shown. Choose True or False for each statement. True у 7.8 a. For every degree increase in temperature, the average amount of water consumed increases by 0.0875 gallons. False 7.2 b. When the temperature is below 74 degrees, the team consumes no water. Water (gal) True 6.6 64 False 6.0 0 X True 0 74 76 78 80 82 84 86 88 90 92 94 C. When the temperature is 86 degrees, the team consumes somewhere between 7 gal and 7.2 gal of water. Temperature (°F) False w = 0.0875t – 0.45, where w represents the average amount of water consumed, and t represents the temperature on that day. True d. The amount of water consumed by the team decreases by 0.45 gallons for every degree the temperature falls, False S
