Based on the given information, it is not possible to draw a conclusion. The table only provides data on the distances Samantha drove and the amount of gas she used, but does not provide any additional information or context to draw a conclusion.
To determine an accurate conclusion based on the table, we need additional information. Could you please provide the information or provide the options that we can choose from?
In order to determine an accurate conclusion based on this table, we need to analyze the relationship between the miles driven and the amount of gas used.
Looking at the table, we can observe that the miles driven are not evenly spaced. From 1 to 16, the distances increase by 7, and then from 16 to 24, the distances increase by 4. This indicates that the distances driven might not have been consistent or measured accurately.
However, we can still make a few conclusions based on the given data:
1. As the miles driven increase, the amount of gas used generally increases. This can be observed by comparing the values in the "Miles driven" column with the corresponding values in the "Amount of gas (gallons)" column. For example, as the miles driven increase from 1 to 16, the amount of gas used increases from 9 to 28.
2. The relationship between miles driven and amount of gas used is not linear. This is evident from the varying increments in the "Miles driven" column. For example, the increase from 1 to 16 is much larger than the increase from 16 to 20.
Based on these observations, we can conclude that the amount of gas used is generally proportional to the miles driven but it may vary depending on other factors such as driving conditions or the efficiency of the vehicle.
