The Speedy Max Taxi Company estimated, on the basis of collected data, that the number of taxi miles driven each day can be modeled by the function $Q(L) = 301L^{0.3}$ when they employ $L$ drivers per day. (a) How many taxi miles are driven each day if there are 5 drivers employed? (b) Graph the function. (a) If 5 drivers are employed, miles are driven per day. (Round to the nearest integer as needed.)

The Green Hat Taxi Company estimated, on the basis of collected data, that the number of taxi miles driven each day can be modeled by the function Q = 441L^0.6, when they employ L drivers per day. (a) Graph this function for 0 <= L <= 30. (b) How many taxi miles are driven each day if there are 8 drivers employed? (c) Does this model indicate that the number of taxi miles increases or decreases as the number of drivers increases? (a) Choose the correct graph below. (b) If 8 drivers are employed, miles are driven per day. (Round to the nearest integer as needed.) (c) The number of miles driven per day as the number of drivers employed increases.
