Answer:
180
Step-by-step explanation:
add 1% to 31.50 to get 31.815
then take the total 5276.70 and divide by 31.815
Negative and Positive numbers dictate direction on a graph. Negative numbers indicate the point is moving left, and positive numbers indicate the point is moving right.
One meaning of a 'linear' equation is that if you draw the graph
of the equation, the graph will be a straight line.
That's an easy way to test the equation . . . find 3 points on the
graph, and see whether they're all in a straight line.
This equation is y = 4 / x .
To find a point on the graph, just pick any number for 'x',
and figure out the value of 'y' that goes with it.
Do that 3 times, and you've got 3 points on the graph.
Here ... I'll do 3 quick points:
Point-A: x = 1 y = 4 / 1 = 4
Point-B: x = 2 y = 4 / 2 = 2
Point-C: x = 4 y = 4 / 4 = 1
Look at this:
Slope of the line from point-A to point-B
= (change in 'y') / (change in 'x') = -2 .
Slope of the line from point-B to point-C
= (change in 'y') / (change in 'x') = -1/2 .
The two pieces of line from A-B and from B-C don't even have
the same slope, so they're not pieces of the same straight line !
So my points A, B, and C are NOT in a straight line.
So the equation is NOT linear.
Try it again with three points of your own.
Well, Kate and Harry together are walking 100 meters per minute. Which means it will take them 25 minutes to reach each other (I think).
If the dog is running 120 meters per minute: 120 x 25 = 3,000.
The dog will run 3,000 meters (if he runs constantly to and from the spot that Kate and and Harry started).
