Answers:
1) The dependent variable is the boiling point of water and the independent variable is the altitude.
2) The slope would represent the average decrease of the boiling point of water per every one thousand feet that the altitude increase.
Explanation:
1) given
Table:
<span>Altitude
(in thousands of feet) Boiling Point of Water (Fahrenheit)
(sea level) 0
212
0.5 211.1
1.0 210
2.0 208.4
2.5 207.5
3.0 206.6
4.0 204.8
4.5 203.9
2) The independent variable is the input of the function, and the dependent variable is the output of the function.
The input determines the output once the rule is established.
Therefore:
a) the independent variable is the altitude, and
b) the dependent variable is the boiling point of water in Farenheit.
3) The slope of the graph would be:
change in the dependent variable change in boiling point
slope = --------------------------------------------------- = ---------------------------------
</span> change in the independent variable change in altitude
Therefore, the slope represents the average change in the boiling boilin point of water every one thousand feet on change of altitude.
If the relationship is not linear, then the slope is not constant, and you will have different slopes for different parts.
If the slope is negative, means that as the altitude increase the boiling point of water decrease.
You can calculate the slope using any two pair of points (data)
212 - 210 2
slope =---------------- = ------- = - 2
0 - 1 - 1
or, using other pair of points:
204.8 - 210 -5.2
slope = --------------------- = --------- = -2.6
4.0 - 2.0 2.0
As you see, the slope is not constant. So, the function is not linear.
angle AOB = 132 and is also the sum of angles AOD and
DOB. Hence
angle AOD + angle DOB = 132° ---> 1
angle COD = 141 and is also the sum of angles COB and BOD. Hence
angle COB + angle DOB = 141° ---> 2
Now we add the left sides together and the right sides of equations 1 and 2
together to form a new equation.
angle AOD + angle DOB + angle COB + angle DOB = 132 + 141 ---> 3
We should also note that:
angle AOD + angle DOB + angle COB = 180°
Therefore substituting angle AOD + angle DOB + angle COB in equation 3 by 180
and solving for angle DOB:
180 + angle DOB = 132 + 141
angle DOB = 273 - 180 = 93°
Since FA || BE, then angle 1 must equal angle 2 since they are corresponding angles along parallel lines where the transverse line cuts.
Thus, if angle 1 is 59, then angle 2 must also be 59 (ie D)
Answer:
It has a slope of 1.
Step-by-step explanation:
First, you need to choose two points. The points HAS to be exactly on top of the line.
The two points I picked where
(-2,0) and (-1,1)
All you do is subtract the two points. Remember rise over run or y/x
1 -0 = 1
-1 - (-2) = 1
