Answer:

20 meters.

Explanation:

In the graph, the x-axis (the horizontal axis) represents the time, while the y-axis (the vertical axis) represents the distance.

If we want to find the distance covered in the first T seconds, you need to find the value T in the horizontal axis.

Once you find it, we draw a vertical line, in the point where this vertical line touches the graph, we now draw a horizontal line. This horizontal line will intersect the y-axis in a given value. That value is the total distance travelled by the time T.

In this case, we want to find the total distance that David ran in the first 4 seconds.

Then we need to find the value 4 seconds in the horizontal axis. Now we perform the above steps, and we will find that the correspondent y-value is 20.

This means that in the first 4 seconds, David ran a distance of 20 meters.

a 360 mile trip began on a greeway in a car traveling at 62 mph. Once the road became a 2 lane highway, the car slowed to 54 mph
Daniel [21]

Answer:

Time spent on the greenway road  = 4.5 hours

Time spent on the 2 lane road = 1.5 hours

Explanation:

The distance of the trip  is 360 miles and the initial speed of the car is 62 miles/hr and after the road became 2 lane highway the car slowed to 54 miles/hr.

Let us divide the trip into two

Greenway

speed = distance/time

speed = 62 mph

time = a

distance = speed × time

distance = 62a

2 lane highway

speed = distance/time

speed = 54 mph

time = b

distance = speed × time

distance = 54b

Total distance

62a + 54b = 360......................(i)

Total time

a + b = 6..............................(ii)

a = 6-b

insert a in equation (i)

62(6-b) + 54b = 360

372  - 62b + 54b = 360

-8b = 360-372

-8b = - 12

b = 12/8

b = 1.5

from equation (ii)

a + 1.5 = 6

a = 6 - 1.5

a = 4.5
