8 am at 0
8:18 at 4.5
8:48 at 7.5 miles ???
18 min = .3 hour
48 min = .8 hour
in first .3 hours speed = 4.5/.3 = 15 mph
in next .5 hours = speed = 3/.5 = 6 mph
average speed for the whole trip = 7.5 miles/.8 hours = 9.375 mph
Answer:
(a) yes it does
(b) the rate is constant because the rate of change (slope) is the same throughout the function.
(c) The rate, or rate of change, is -1/2.
y1 - y2/x1-x2
4 - 2/3 - 9
2/-6
-1/2
Answer:
x= Multiplication
Step-by-step explanation:
1 x +2 -3 =8
If you look at the graph of y = floor(x), you'll see a stairstep pattern that climbs up as you read from left to right. There are no vertical components to the graph. There are only horizontal components.
The graph is not periodic because the y values do not repeat themselves after a certain x value is passed. For instance, start at x = 0 and go to x = 3. You'll see the y values dont repeat themselves as if a sine function would. If you wanted the function to be periodic, the steps would have to go downhill at some point; however, this does not happen.
Conclusion: The function floor(x) is <u>not</u> periodic.
