Describe a situation that models a linear pattern and then describe a situation that models a nonlinear pattern. Do not state wh

ich situation is linear and which is nonlinear. Your classmates will need to determine which is which and then write a function that models the linear situation. Your classmates will also need to write 1 ordered pair that is a solution to the linear function and explain its meaning in the context of the situation.

Answer:

When we talk about linear patterns, we refer to those events where events are related with a linear proportion, that is, if one magnitude increases, the other one will to, or if one magnitude increases the other would decrease, and this behaviour with a linear function which is represented as a line.

So, one example of linear model would be speed, which relates distances and time in a linear behaviour, which function is

s=\frac{d}{t}

So, if one ball has a speed of 3 meters per second, the function would be

3=\frac{d}{t}\\ d=3t

Where t represents the independent variable (horizontal axis) because it represents time, and d is distance, which is a dependent variable.

On the other hand, a non linear model could be population growth, which is an exponential beahaviour. It's not represented with a linear function, that's why is not linear.

An example of a function that represents population growth is

N(t)=N_{0} e^{rt}

Where t is time (horizontal axis), r is growth rate, N_{0} is the initial population and N(t) is the population after t time.

A specific example is

N(t)=12e^{0.012t}

At last, each function graph is attached, there you could see a lot better, the linear and non-linear behaviour.

Given the circumference of a circle is 26 pi, what is the area of the circle? Show work. Leave answer in term of pi.
Ierofanga [76]

Answer:169pi

Step-by-step explanation:

Circumference(c)=26pi

Circumference(c)=2 x pi x radius(r)

26pi=2pi x r

Divide both sides by 2pi

26pi/2pi=(2pi x r)/2pi

13=r

Radius(r)=13

Area of circle=pi x r^2

area of circle=pi x 13^2

Area of circle=169pi

Explain how you decide whether the final answer to a multiplication problem is
Evgesh-ka [11]

Explanation:

Regardless of the number of factors, the product will be negative if an odd number of factors are negative.

In the example, 3 of the factors are negative. 3 is an odd number so the product will be negative.

  -2*-3*-1*1 = -6

_____

Of course, the product will be zero if any factor is zero, regardless of the signs of any other factors.
