Your Porsche's gas mileage (in miles per gallon) is given as a function M(x) of speed x in miles per hour. It is found that
-2 - 1
3,600x
(3,600x-1 + x)2
M'(x) =
%3D
Estimate M'(40), M'(60), and M'(100). (Round your answers to seven decimal places.)
M'(40) =
mpg/mph
%3D
M'(60) =
mpg/mph
M'(100) =
mpg/mph
What do the answers tell you about your car?
The results mean that at a speed of 40 mph, the fuel economy is increasing at a rate of
miles per gallon per 1 mph increase in speed, at a speed of 60 mph, the fuel economy is neither
increasing nor decreasing, and at a speed of 100 mph, the fuel economy is decreasing at a rate of
miles per gallon per 1 mph increase in speed. Thus, 60 mph is the most fuel-efficient
speed for the car.
