Presumably d meanst distance and t means time.
When t = 1, d = 2.5
When t = 3, d = 4
d = mt + b
2.5 = m + b [t = 1]
4.0 = 3m + b [t = 2]
1.5 = 2m [subtract]
m = .75 = slope
b = 1.75 = d-intercept
d = .75t + 1.75
d = 15/4 + 7/4 [t = 5]
d = 22/4 = 5.5 m from sensor
a) x=4 is 5 units to the right of x=-1.
y=12 is 4 units up from y=8.
Your point (-1, 8) is translated to (4, 12).
___
b) If the parent function f(x) = x is translated so it goes through (4, 12), the translated function can be written ...
... g(x) = f(x-4) +12 = (x -4) +12
... g(x) = x +8
Answer:
slope of line that is parallel is 1/2
slope of line that is perpendicular is -2
Step-by-step explanation:
parallel lines have the same slope
perpendicular lines have slopes that are opposite and reciprocal
x - 2y = -1
-2y = -x -1
y = 1/2x + 1/2
the coefficient of the 'x' term represents the slope
