The graph provides distance as a linear function of time.
The y-intercept is zero.

The line passes through (0,0) and (6,120).
Calculate the slope.
m = (120 - 0)/(6 - 0) = 20

The equation of the line is
d = 20t
where
t = time, hours
d =  distance, miles

Therefore distance is the dependent variable.
When t = 24 hours, the distance is 20*24 = 480 miles.

Answers:
(a) Distance is the dependent variable
(b)The equation relating the two variables is
    d = 20t
    where
    t = time, hours
    d = distance, miles
(c) In 24 hours, the dragonfly will travel 480 miles.

What is the area of a triangle whose base is 15 centimeters and whose height is 10 centimeters
Kazeer [188]

Answer:

75

Step-by-step explanation:

o find the area of a triangle, multiply the base by the height, and then divide by 2. The division by 2 comes from the fact that a parallelogram can be divided into 2 triangles. For example, in the diagram to the left, the area of each triangle is equal to one-half the area of the parallelogram.
