Answer:

It represents a linear function because there is a constant rate of change.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since, if the rate of change for y ( output value ) with respect to x ( input value ) remains constant for a function then it is called linear function.

Here, number of hours represents input value and minutes represents the output value,

Now, By the given table,

The function is passing through the points (1,60), (2,120), (3,180), (4,240) and (5,300),

Also,

\frac{120-60}{2-1}=\frac{180-120}{3-2}=\frac{240-180}{4-3}=\frac{300-240}{5-4}=60

⇒  The rate of change output value with respect to input value remains constant,

Hence, It represents a linear function because there is a constant rate of change.

The first one I think because a linear function is always going to have a constant rate of change in one direction going straight up

All estimating problems make the assumption you are familar with your math facts, addition and multiplication. Since students normally memorize multiplication facts for single-digit numbers, any problem that can be simplified to single-digit numbers is easily worked.

2. You are asked to estimate 47.99 times 0.6. The problem statement suggests you do this by multiplying 50 times 0.6. That product is the same as 5 × 6, which is a math fact you have memorized. You know this because
.. 50 × 0.6 = (5 × 10) × (6 × 1/10)
.. = (5 × 6) × (10 ×1/10) . . . . . . . . . . . by the associative property of multiplication
.. = 30 × 1
.. = 30


3. You have not provided any clue as to the procedure reviewed in the lesson. Using a calculator,
.. 47.99 × 0.6 = 28.79 . . . . . . rounded to cents


4. You have to decide if knowing the price is near $30 is sufficient information, or whether you need to know it is precisely $28.79. In my opinion, knowing it is near $30 is good enough, unless I'm having to count pennies for any of several possible reasons.

A triangle has squares on its three sides as shown below. What is the value of x? Three squares having side lengths 3 cm, x cm,
Pani-rosa [81]

Answer:

The value of x is 5 centimeters.

Therefore, option 3 is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

A triangle has three sides 3,x and 4 cms

Since the triangle is right angle triangle  so, it will follow the Pythagoras theorem:

hypotenuse^2=side^2+side^2    (1)

We have been given three sides x,3 and 4

On substituting the values in (1) we get:

x^2=3^2+4^2

x^2=9+25

\Rightarrow x=5

Hence, the value of x is 5 centimeters.

Therefore, option 3 is correct.

Please look at the attachment for the figure.
