Marion is observing the velocity of a cyclist at different times. After two hours, the velocity of the cyclist is 18 km/h. After

four hours, the velocity of the cyclist is 4 km/h.
Part A: Write an equation in two variables in the standard form that can be used to describe the velocity of the cyclist at different times. Show your work and define the variables used. (5 points)

Part B: How can you graph the equations obtained in Part A for the first 8 hours? (5 points)

Part A:
Express the given number of hours and velocities of the cyclist as ordered pairs. The time (number of hours) can be our abscissa (x-coordinate) and the velocities can be our ordinate (y-coordinate). The coordinates are therefore (2, 18) and (4, 4). The equation that can be formed in this is established through the two-point equation.

       (y - y₁) = ((y₂ - y₁)/(x₂ - x₁))(x - x₁)

Substitute the known variables.
      (y - 18) = ((4 - 18)/(4 - 2))(x - 2)

Simplifying the equation,
   y - 18 = -7(x - 2)
  y = -7x + 32

<em>ANSWER: y = -7x + 32

</em>
Part B: This can be graph in the Cartesian plane and numbers 1 to 8 can be substituted to y and take note of the ordered pairs for each point. The slope of the line should be -7 and the y-intercept is 32.<em>

An angle measures 32° more than the measure of its complementary angle. What is the measure of each angle?
Leviafan [203]

Answer:

29° ; 61°

Step-by-step explanation:

Let one angle  = x°

Other angle = (x + 32)°

x + x + 32 = 90   {given they are complementary}

2x + 32 = 90

2x = 90 -32

2x = 58

x = 58/2

x = 29

One angle  = 29°

Other angle = 29 + 32 = 61°

On your second day of measuring living trees you find a tree with a diameter of 24 inches! Should you predict the volume of this
Bingel [31]

Answer:

Yes! Extrapolation is fine. Don't worry about it.

Step-by-step explanation:

Because the data we have ranges from 8 to 22 inches, an extrapolation should be made, which is the process of estimating beyond the original observation interval, the value of the variable based on its relationship to another variable. It is similar to interpolation, which produces estimates between known observations, unlike this, extrapolation is subject to greater uncertainty and a higher risk of producing insignificant results, but because the value is 24 inches, it is not too far away. of the upper limit which is 22, the error should not be very big, therefore the answer is: Yes! Extrapolation is fine. Don't worry about it.

What is the area of this figure? Enter your answer in the box.
Basile [38]
Luckily for us, the diagram already divided this figure into separate polygons. What I will be explaining is basically the addition of the areas of all the separate polygons. The area of the uppermost triangle is:

1/2 x b x h
= 1/2 x 20 x 8
(the base is 20, because in a parallelogram, opposite sides are congruent)
=10 x 8
= 80 in. squared

The next polygon we will be taking the area of is the parallelogram with the base length of 20 and the height of 16.

Area = b x h
= 20 x 16
= 320 in. squared

Now all we have left to do is add the two areas to obtain the total area.

Total Area = 320 + 80 = 400 in. squared
