How would you do a,b,c,and d

a) You are told the function is quadratic, so you can write cost (c) in terms of speed (s) as

... c = k·s² + m·s + n

Filling in the given values gives three equations in k, m, and n.

28 = k\cdot 10^2+m\cdot 10+n\\21=k\cdot 20^2+m\cdot 20+n\\16=k\cdot 30^2+m\cdot 30+n

Subtracting each equation from the one after gives

-7=300k+10m\\-5=500k+10m

Subtracting the first of these equations from the second gives

2=200k\\\\k=\dfrac{2}{200}=0.01

Using the next previous equation, we can find m.

-5=500\cdot 0.01+10m\\\\m=\dfrac{-10}{10}=-1

Then from the first equation

[tex]28=100\cdot 0.01+10\cdot (-1)+n\\\\n=37[tex]

There are a variety of other ways the equation can be found or the system of equations solved. Any way you do it, you should end with

... c = 0.01s² - s + 37

b) At 150 kph, the cost is predicted to be

... c = 0.01·150² -150 +37 = 112 . . . cents/km

c) The graph shows you need to maintain speed between 40 and 60 kph to keep cost at or below 13 cents/km.

d) The graph has a minimum at 12 cents per km. This model predicts it is not possible to spend only 10 cents per km.

What is the rate of change for the linear relationship modeled in the table? (4 points)
lozanna [386]

Answer:

-1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

In a linear relationship, the rate of change of one variable with respect to the other is <em>constant</em>. When we talk about <em>change</em>, we're looking for a <em>difference</em> of values.

If we look at the first and second rows, the change in x is 1 - (-1) = 2, while the change in y is 9 - 10 = -1. Usually we refer to these changes as Δx and Δy (read like "delta-x" and "delta-y"), and the <em>rate of change </em>is the number we get by dividing one of these by the other.

The rate of change we're used to seeing, sometimes called the <em>slope</em>, is Δy/Δx. So, using the values we've already found:

\Delta{x}=2\\\Delta{y}=-1\\\Delta{y}/\Delta{x}=-1/2
