Question

The fuel consumption of a car is proportional to the distance covered .
True
False​

Answer 1

The amount of fuel consumed is directly proportional to vehicle distance travelled (holding everything else constant). Thus, a 20% decrease in vehicle distance travelled (e.g., by an increase in telecommuting) would translate into a 20% reduction in fuel used.

Answer 2

The amount of fuel consumed is directly proportional to vehicle distance travelled (holding everything else constant). Thus, a 20% decrease in vehicle distance travelled (e.g., by an increase in telecommuting) would translate into a 20% reduction in fuel used.
