1) the dragon family lives 165 miles away from the castle, and it takes them 3 hours to fly over there.

1 answer:

5 0

1) Speed is measured in distance units divided by time units, such as miles per hour. Here, you're given the number of miles traveled and the number of hours it takes, so you can figure tha average speed to be

... speed (or "rate of change") = distance/time = 165 mi/(3 h) = 55 mi/h

2) "speed at the moment" 1.5 hours into the flight means ...

... d. an instantaneous rate of change at 1.5

3) To keep their average speed on target, the dragons must travel at higher than their average speed for a while.

vitfil [10]

Let x be the time and y is the depth

At x = 0 y = -130

At x= 6.5 y = 0

So the slope = (0- (-130) / ( 6.5 – 0) = 20

Y intercept b

0 = 20(6.5) + b

B= -130

The equation

Y = 20x -130

The domain all real numbers from 0 to 6.5

Range is all realnumber from -130 to 0

How do u write graphs in standard form?

Deffense [45]

Answer:

The standard form for linear equations in two variables is Ax+By=C. For example, 2x+3y=5 is a linear equation in standard form. When an equation is given in this form, it's pretty easy to find both intercepts (x and y). This form is also very useful when solving systems of two linear equations.
