So you correctly wrote that the slope is represented by Δy/Δx. The Greek capital letter delta means "change in," so we are looking at the change in y divided by the change in x. You might also hear this called "rise over run," because change in y is the vertical change (rise) and change in x is the horizontal change (run).

Now, to find the change in y and x, we need to take two points, (x_1, y_1) and (x_2, y_2). We can then find the slope, m, as below:

m= \dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

So, as we're asked to state the slope and the behavior of the graph. Generally, if you see that as x increases, y increases, then the slope is positive. If y decreases, then the slope is negative. If y stays the same (constant), then the slope is zero. If x is constant, then the slope is undefined. Unfortunately, this worksheet also asks us to calculate the slope. So the equation above comes in handy!

1) let's take x = -1, y = -5 and x = 0, y = 3. We can write (x_1,y_1)=(-1,-5) and (x_2, y_2)=(0,3) (we can choose either point to be (x_1,y_1) so long as we're consistent.

m= \dfrac{3+5}{1}=8

This is a positive (+) change.

2) 

m= \dfrac{-4+1}{2} =  \dfrac{-3}{2}

Negative (–).

3) 

m= \dfrac{-9+4}{-9+6}= \dfrac{-5}{-3}= \dfrac{5}{3}

Positive (+).

4)

m= \dfrac{8-3}{-1+5}= \dfrac{5}{4}

Positive (+).

5)

m= \dfrac{4-5}{2+2}= \dfrac{-1}{4}

Negative (–).

Which step is incorrect and what is the correct answer?
Anit [1.1K]

Answer:

Step 4, x = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 4 was wrong, instead of 6x = 6, it should be 6x = 18. They shoudl've added 6 to both sides instead of subtracting 6 as ur trying to cancel out the 6 on the left side of the equation. So:

6x = 18

x = 3

Assuming the conditions regarding the motion represented in the graph remain the same, determine the acceleration of the object
vovikov84 [41]

(a)

We can see that

this is a straight line

and this is the graph of velocity

we know that

acceleration is the derivative of velocity

so, slope of curve of velocity is acceleration

so, we will find slope of this line

We can select any two points

(0,4) and (5,7)

we can use slope formula

m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

now, we can plug points

m=\frac{7-4}{5-0}

m=0.6

we know that slope of line is always constant irrespective of any value of t

so, acceleration will always be same irrespective of any value of t

so, we will get acceleration

a(t)=0.6m/s^2............Answer

(b)

we can see that acceleration is constant

and we know that

derivative of constant is always 0

so, instantaneous rate of acceleration at t=10s is 0........Answer
