The table doesn't represent linear function

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to identify if the table represent a linear function or not.

<u>Linear Function </u>

A linear function is defined as a straight line with an x and y intercept and the same slope through the whole line.

Finding the slope of elements in the table:

x y

0 0

1 1

2 8

3 27

Slope= y/x

Slope = 0/0=0

slope = 1/1 = 1

slope = 8/2 = 2

slope = 27/3 = 9

The function represented is: y=x^3

Since the slope of points x and y in the table is not same, and its graph is not linear.

So, the table doesn't represent linear function

Joe bikes at the speed of 30 km/h from his home toward his work. If Joe's wife leaves home 5 mins later by car, how fast should

Dahasolnce [82]

Answer:

45 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a really good question to know the answer to. It is tricky and a bit indirect (which means you have to find something else before you can find the speed of the car.)

Let's keep track of what he does in the time allotted.

How far does Joe go in 5 minutes? That's the amount of time he's on the road before she is.

convert 5 minutes into hours. 5 minutes * 1 hour / 60 minutes = 1/12 of an hour

d = r*t

r = 30 km/hour

t = 1/12 hour

d = 30 km/hr * 1/12 hour = 2.5 km

Now she's about to start. She wants to catch him in 10 minutes

d = r*t

r = x mph

t = 10 minutes = 10 minutes * 1 hour * 60 minutes = 1/6 of an hour.

How far does he go in the 10 minute time?

d = 30 * 1/6 = 5 km

What is his total distance

5 km + 2.5 km = 7.5 km

Finally how fast does she need to go to catch him

d = 7.5 km

r = ? This is what you are trying to find

t = 1/6 of an hour

d = r*t

7.5 km = r * (1/6)hour divide by 1/6 hour

7.5 km // 1/6 hour = r

r = 7.5 * 6 = 45 mph

What is the surface area of a right rectangular prism with the length of 10 inches width of 8 inches and a height of 1.5 inchess

Contact [7]

Answer: Option 3

Step-by-step explanation: Option (3) is correct.The surface area of a rectangular prism of given dimension is 170 square inches.Step-by-step explanation:Given : a rectangular prism whose base is 5 inches by 6 inches and whose height is 5 inches.We have to find the surface area of a rectangular prism of given dimension.Since a rectangular prism whose base is 5 inches by 6 inchesThat is length (l)= 5 inches Width (w) = 6 inches and height (h) = 5 inches.Also . Substitute, we have,simplify , we have,surface area of a rectangular prism = 170 inches²Thus, the surface area of a rectangular prism of given dimension is 170 square inches
