Answer:

y = 1/2x - 4

Step-by-step explanation:

First, write the equation using the slope: y = 1/2x + b. Next, find the y intercept by plugging in the point. It should look like this: -2 = 1/2(4) + b. Multiply 1/2 by 4 to get 2. This is what it looks like now: -2 = 2 + b. Subtract 2 from both sides to get -4 = b. Go back to your original equation and plug in -4 for b. This is your final answer:

y = 1/2x - 4

Hope this helped! :)

The deck of a bridge is suspended 275 feet above a river. If a pebble falls off the side of the bridge, the height, in feet, of
Ivenika [448]

Answer:

Our equation for the height is:

y(t) = 275 - 16*t^2.

a) To find the average velocity between two times, t1 and t2, (where t2 > t1) the equation is:

AV = \frac{y(t2) - y(t1)}{t2 - t1}

Then:

i) t1 = 4s, t2 = 4s + 0.1s = 4.1s

The average velocity is:

AV = \frac{(275 - 16*4.1^2) - (275 - 16*4^2)}{4.1 - 4} = \frac{16(4^2 - 4.1^2)}{0.1} = -129.6

And the units will be ft/s, so the average speed is:

-129.6 ft/s

The minus sign is because te pebble is falling down.

ii)  t1 = 4s, t2 = 4s + 0.05s = 4.05s

The average velocity is:

AV = \frac{(275 - 16*4.05^2) - (275 - 16*4^2)}{4.05 - 4} = \frac{16(4^2 - 4.05^2)}{0.05} = -128.8

So the average speed is -128.9 ft/s

iii)  t1 = 4s, t2 = 4s + 0.01s = 4.01s

The average speed is:

AV = \frac{(275 - 16*4.01^2) - (275 - 16*4^2)}{4.01 - 4} = \frac{16(4^2 - 4.01^2)}{0.01} = -128.16

The average speed is -128.16 ft/s.

b) The instantaneous velocity of the pebble after 4 seconds can be obtained by looking at the velocity equation, that is the derivative of the height equation.

v(t) = dy(t)/dt.

v(t) = -2*16*t + 0

Then the velocity at t = 4s is:

v(4s) = -32*4 = -128

The instantaneous velocity at t = 4s is -128 ft/s.

OleMash [197]
7 1/4 - 2 4/5
Turn the denominator into a common denominator for both fractions:
7 5/20 - 2 16/20
To subtract easier, turn the fractions into an improper fraction:
145/20 - 56/20
Subtract the numerators:
145 - 56 = 89 ---> 89/20
Simplify (to get an answer of):
4 9/20
