Answer:

a. $0.1\ miles$

b Slope: $\frac{1}{10}$ or $0.1$

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line that passes through the origin is:

$y=mx$

Where "m" is the slope of the line.

By definition, Direct variation equations have the following form:

$y=kx$

Where "k" is the Constant of variation.

Then, you can conclude that:

$m=k$

a. Let be "d" the distance in miles that the train travels per gallon.

You can observe in the graph that when the train travels 10 miles, it uses 100 gallons. Then, you can set up the following proportion:

$\frac{10}{100}=\frac{x}{1}$

Solving for "x", you get:

$x=\frac{1}{10}\\\\x=0.1$

Then, it travels 0.1 miles per gallon.

b. The slope is also $\frac{1}{10}$ or $0.1$ . To check this, you can subsitute the coordinates of the point (100,10) into $y=mx$ and solve for "m" in order to find its value.

This is:

$10=m(100)\\\\m=\frac{1}{10}$

Write 3 × 3 × 3 × 3 × 3 × 3 using exponents. a. 123 b. 36 c. 63 d. 94

GuDViN [60]

The answer to your question is b 3 to the 6power. The reason why is there are 6 3 so instead writing 3*3*3*3*3*3 you can just do 3 to the 6 power. Hope this helps:)

Plot the point whose polar coordinates are given. Then find two other pairs of polar coordinates of this point, one with r >

Ira Lisetskai [31]

Answer:

The other pairs are:

$(a)\ (2, \frac{5\pi}{6}) \to$ $(2, \frac{17\pi}{6})$ and $(-2, \frac{23\pi}{6})$

$(b)\ (1, -\frac{2\pi}{3}) \to$ $(1, \frac{4\pi}{3})$ and $(-1, \frac{7\pi}{3})$

$(c)\ (-1, \frac{5\pi}{4}) \to$ $(-1, \frac{3\pi}{4} )$ and $(1, \frac{7\pi}{4})$

See attachment for plots

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$(a)\ (2, \frac{5\pi}{6})$

$(b)\ (1, -\frac{2\pi}{3})$

$(c)\ (-1, \frac{5\pi}{4})$

Solving (a): Plot a, b and c

See attachment for plots

Solving (b): Find other pairs for $r > 0$ and $r < 0$

The general rule is that:

The other points can be derived using

$(r, \theta) = (r, \theta + 2n\pi)$

and

$(r, \theta) = (-r, \theta + (2n + 1)\pi)$

Let $n =1$ ---- You can assume any value of n

So, we have:

$(r, \theta) = (r, \theta + 2n\pi)$

$(r, \theta) = (r, \theta + 2*1*\pi)$

$(r, \theta) = (r, \theta + 2\pi)$

$(r, \theta) = (-r, \theta + (2n + 1)\pi)$

$(r, \theta) = (-r, \theta + (2*1 + 1)\pi)$

$(r, \theta) = (-r, \theta + (2 + 1)\pi)$

$(r, \theta) = (-r, \theta + 3\pi)$

$(a)\ (2, \frac{5\pi}{6})$

$r = 2\ \ \ \ \theta = \frac{5\pi}{6}$

So, the pairs are:

$(r, \theta) = (r, \theta + 2\pi)$

$(2, \frac{5\pi}{6}) = (2, \frac{5\pi}{6} + 2\pi)$

Take LCM

$(2, \frac{5\pi}{6}) = (2, \frac{5\pi+12\pi}{6})$

$(2, \frac{5\pi}{6}) = (2, \frac{17\pi}{6})$

And

$(r, \theta) = (-r, \theta + 3\pi)$

$(2, \frac{5\pi}{6}) = (-2, \frac{5\pi}{6} + 3\pi)$

Take LCM

$(2, \frac{5\pi}{6}) = (-2, \frac{5\pi+18\pi}{6})$

$(2, \frac{5\pi}{6}) = (-2, \frac{23\pi}{6})$

The other pairs are:

$(2, \frac{17\pi}{6})$ and $(-2, \frac{23\pi}{6})$

$(b)\ (1, -\frac{2\pi}{3})$

$r = 1\ \ \ \theta = -\frac{2\pi}{3}$

So, the pairs are:

$(r, \theta) = (r, \theta + 2\pi)$

$(1, -\frac{2\pi}{3}) = (1, -\frac{2\pi}{3} + 2\pi)$

Take LCM

$(1, -\frac{2\pi}{3}) = (1, \frac{-2\pi+6\pi}{3})$

$(1, -\frac{2\pi}{3}) = (1, \frac{4\pi}{3})$

And

$(r, \theta) = (-r, \theta + 3\pi)$

$(1, -\frac{2\pi}{3}) = (-1, -\frac{2\pi}{3} + 3\pi)$

Take LCM

$(1, -\frac{2\pi}{3}) = (-1, \frac{-2\pi+9\pi}{3})$

$(1, -\frac{2\pi}{3}) = (-1, \frac{7\pi}{3})$

The other pairs are:

$(1, \frac{4\pi}{3})$ and $(-1, \frac{7\pi}{3})$

$(c)\ (-1, \frac{5\pi}{4})$

$r = -1 \ \ \ \ \theta = \frac{-5\pi}{4}$

So, the pairs are

$(r, \theta) = (r, \theta + 2\pi)$

$(-1, \frac{-5\pi}{4}) = (-1, \frac{-5\pi}{4} + 2\pi)$

Take LCM

$(-1, \frac{-5\pi}{4}) = (-1, \frac{-5\pi+8\pi}{4} )$

$(-1, \frac{-5\pi}{4}) = (-1, \frac{3\pi}{4} )$

And

$(r, \theta) = (-r, \theta + 3\pi)$

$(-1, \frac{-5\pi}{4}) = (-(-1), \frac{-5\pi}{4}+ 3\pi)$

Take LCM

$(-1, \frac{-5\pi}{4}) = (1, \frac{-5\pi+12\pi}{4})$

$(-1, \frac{-5\pi}{4}) = (1, \frac{7\pi}{4})$

So, the other pairs are:

$(-1, \frac{3\pi}{4} )$ and $(1, \frac{7\pi}{4})$
