Figuring out the type of function from a table of values requires either a graph or to look at y increases when x increases. (Or decreases.)
The function is linear because as x increases, y increases at the same amount no matter what two x values you pick. If you increase by 1 on the x, you always increase by 1/2 on x. And if you double the increases on x, the same for y.
Since it's a linear function, it has a slope. Slope, m, is the difference of the y coordinates divided by the difference of the x coordinates. Choose (4, 2) and (0,0) as (x₁, y₁) and (x₂, y₂) respectively for this, but any pair works.
m =
Our slope is 1/2. To write this in functional form, we can write this equation in slope-intercept form, y = mx + b where m is our slope and b is our y-intercept. We know from above that (0,0) is on the graph so 0 is both the x-intercept and the y-intercept. (If you substitute x = 0, y = 0, and m = 1/2 you would that b = 0 as well.)
So m = 1/2 and b = 0, and we report the linear equation in slope-intercept form, y = 1/2x + 0, which we give as y = 1/2x. Our equation represents y in terms of x, so it's a function too.
Thus, the function is y = .
Answer:
The circumference is 75.36 inches.
Step-by-step explanation:
Hi there! Please take a look at the following explanation and let me know in the comment if you have any doubts!
<h3>Given:</h3>We are given the <u>radius</u> that’s equal to <u>12 inches</u> and π = <u>3.14</u>
<h3>Problem:</h3>We want to find <u>the circumference</u>.
<h3>Circumference Formula:</h3> which simply means <em>circumference = 2*π*radius</em> or sometimes can also be written as
which means <em>circumference = π*diameter </em>since 2r means two times of radius and that’s technically diameter.
Determine the following:
- π = 3.14 as given
- r = 12 as given
Apply the circumference formula.
Hence, the circumference is <u>75.36 inches</u>.
