The scatter plot below shows the amount of weight towed by a vehicle and its
average miles per gallon. ![mc001-1.jpg](blueteacher09_files/mc001-1.jpg) How many pounds does the vehicle that gets 25
miles per gallon tow? How many miles per gallon does the vehicle that tows 3500 pounds
get? What tends to happen as the weight towed by a vehicle increases?
a. | 2500 pounds; 15 mi/gal; As the weight towed by the vehicle increases, the
miles per gallon increases. | b. | 2000 pounds; 20 mi/gal; As the weight
towed by the vehicle increases, the miles per gallon increases. | c. | 2500 pounds;
15 mi/gal; As the weight towed by the vehicle increases, the miles per gallon
decreases. | d. | 2000 pounds; 20 mi/gal; As the weight towed by the vehicle increases, the
