(intro) Slope is change in y divided by change in x (axes). Here, the y axis is depth and the x axis is hours. So, the slope is change in depth between any two points, divided by the change in hours between the same points. The slope of this line is half a foot depth divided by 2 hours.
a) So, the slope is 0.5 / 2 = 0.25, or 1/4.
b) The graph shows a constant rate of change because the line is straight (it increases at the same speed. If the line was curving, it would not be a constant rate of change).
c) Yes, because the line has a constant rate of change now.
Answer:
A) slope = 20.
B) The slope of 20 dollars per hour means that for every hour, the price of the service call increases by 20 dollars (or you could say the price of the service call is 20 dollars every hour, both work.)
Step-by-step explanation:
Recall that slope is y2 - y1 / x2 - x1.
Excellent. We are provided with two points: (1, 60) and (3, 100). Let’s enter this into our formula.
Slope = (100 - 60) / (3 - 1) = 40 / 2 = 20.
Now, to determine what the slope means, we can look at the axis titles on the graph. The x axis title is hours, or time in hours. The y axis title is price of the service call in dollars. Therefore, the slope is price (in dollars) per time (in hours).
This can be restated as: The slope of 20 dollars per hour means that for every hour, the price of the service call increases by 20 dollars (or you could say the price of the service call is 20 dollars every hour, both work.)
Hope this helps!
Answer:
c it the answer
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
53.5
Explanation:
Since triangle AOB is an isosceles triangle (AO = OB), the base angles of the triangle are 53.5. (180-73 = 107, 107/2 = 53.5)
Answer:
The 6% simple interest account earns more interest in 2 years.
Step-by-step explanation:
You can compare the multipliers in the interest formulas.
For simple interest, the amount in the account (A) starting with principal P and earning at rate r for t years will be ...
A = P(1 +rt)
For the values given, r=.06 and t=2, the multiplier is ...
1 +rt = 1 +.06·2 = 1.12
__
For interest compounded annually, the amount will be ...
A = P(1 +r)^t
For the given values, the multiplier is ...
(1+r)^t = (1.04)^2 = 1.0816
__
Since 1.12 > 1.0816, the account earning simple interest will earn more interest.
