<u>Part a)</u> If both ants skate directly towards each other, starting at the same time and skating the same speed, what will be the coordinates of their meeting place?

Let

A(3,4)  B(33.44)

we know that

If both ants skate directly towards each other, starting at the same time and skating the same speed

then

the coordinates of their meeting place is the midpoint AB

<u>Find the midpoint AB</u>

in the x-coordinate

(3+33)/2=18

in the y-coordinate

(4+44)/2=24

the midpoint AB is (18,24)

therefore

<u>the answer Part a) is </u>

the coordinates of their meeting place is (18,24)

<u>Part b)</u> How far will each ant skate?

<u>Find the distance AB</u>

d=\sqrt{(x2-x1)^{2}+(y2-y1)^{2}}

substitute the values

dAB=\sqrt{(33-3)^{2}+(44-4)^{2}}

dAB=\sqrt{2,500} units

dAB=50 units

<u>Find the half distance AB</u>

50/2=25 units

therefore

<u>the answer part b) is</u>

Each ant will skate 25 units

Which table shows input and output values that represent a linear function?
shepuryov [24]

Answer:

Table A

Step-by-step explanation:

In order for it to be a linear relationship, the change in the x values and y values (f(x)) needs to be consistent.

In every table, the x values change the same, so we can focus on the y values.  

Notice in table A, the f(x) values go down consistently by 10 for every change in x.  

All of the other tables are not consistent.  

Therefore, table A is the only linear function.
