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.

Find the slope and y intercept of the line y=7/5x-3 5/7; 3 3; 7/5 7/5;-3 -3; 7/5
7nadin3 [17]

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation of a line is y = mx + c

where

m is the slope

c is the y intercept

From the question

y = 7/5x - 3

Comparing with the above formula

<h3>Slope / m = 7/5</h3><h3>c/ y intercept = - 3</h3>

Hope this helps you

Solve simultaneous equation <br> X-2y=1<br> 2x-y=2
Step2247 [10]

Answer: x=1,y=0

Step-by-step explanation:

X-2y=1.....equation 1

2x-y=2.....equation 2

X=1+2y.......equation 3

Substitute equation 3into 2

2(1+2y)-y=2

2+4y-y=2

2+3y=2

3y=2-2

3y=0

Y=0/3

Y=0

Substitute for y=0 in equation 1

X-2y=1

X-2(0)=1

X-0=1

X=1

X=1 & Y=0
