The number of miles Abigail’s boat travels, m, varies directly with the amount of time Abigail spends boating, t. If she spends

2 h in her boat, she travels 19 mi. Which direct linear variation equation models the information?

Hello, Tennant17!

The model for direct variation is y=kx where k is a constant.
In this case, y is m and x is t.
So the equation is m=kt
Plug in the values of m and t to find k.

19= k * 2
Solve for k
k= 19/2
k= 9.5

Plug k back into the equation.

m=9.5t

So the answer is:
B. m=9.5t

Hope this helps :)

The most frequently occurring value of a data set is called the a. range. b. mode. c. median. d. mean.

tankabanditka [31]

Answer:

B. Mode

Step-by-step explanation:

The mode of any distribution is the value with the most recurrence in a given set of data or distribution. It is also possible that such given set of data have more than one mode. They can be bimodal, that is having two modes and they can be multimodal, that is having multiple modes.

For example, in a given set of data like 2,3,3,5,6,7,7,7,7,7,9, the most occurring value or entry is 7 and the mode of the set of data is said to be 7.

Answer:

$A = 74.7^\circ$

$B = 42.5^\circ$

$C = 62.8^\circ$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$A = (-1,2) \to (x_1,y_1)$

$B = (2,8) \to (x_2,y_2)$

$C = (4,1) \to (x_3,y_3)$

Required

The measure of each angle

First, we calculate the length of the three sides of the triangle.

This is calculated using distance formula

$d = \sqrt{(x_1 - x_2)^2 + (y_1 - y_2)^2$

For AB

$A = (-1,2) \to (x_1,y_1)$

$B = (2,8) \to (x_2,y_2)$

$d = \sqrt{(-1 - 2)^2 + (2 - 8)^2$

$d = \sqrt{(-3)^2 + (-6)^2$

$d = \sqrt{45$

So:

$AB = \sqrt{45$

For BC

$B = (2,8) \to (x_2,y_2)$

$C = (4,1) \to (x_3,y_3)$

$BC = \sqrt{(2 - 4)^2 + (8 - 1)^2$

$BC = \sqrt{(-2)^2 + (7)^2$

$BC = \sqrt{53$

For AC

$A = (-1,2) \to (x_1,y_1)$

$C = (4,1) \to (x_3,y_3)$

$AC = \sqrt{(-1 - 4)^2 + (2 - 1)^2$

$AC = \sqrt{(-5)^2 + (1)^2$

$AC = \sqrt{26$

So, we have:

$AB = \sqrt{45$

$BC = \sqrt{53$

$AC = \sqrt{26$

By representation

$AB \to c$

$BC \to a$

$AC \to b$

So, we have:

$a = \sqrt{53$

$b = \sqrt{26$

$c = \sqrt{45$

By cosine laws, the angles are calculated using:

$a^2 = b^2 + c^2 -2bc \cos A$

$b^2 = a^2 + c^2 -2ac \cos B$

$c^2 = a^2 + b^2 -2ab\ cos C$

$a^2 = b^2 + c^2 -2bc \cos A$

$(\sqrt{53})^2 = (\sqrt{26})^2 +(\sqrt{45})^2 - 2 * (\sqrt{26}) +(\sqrt{45}) * \cos A$

$53 = 26 +45 - 2 * 34.21 * \cos A$

$53 = 26 +45 - 68.42 * \cos A$

Collect like terms

$53 - 26 -45 = - 68.42 * \cos A$

$-18 = - 68.42 * \cos A$

Solve for $\cos A$

$\cos A =\frac{-18}{-68.42}$

$\cos A =0.2631$

Take arc cos of both sides

$A =\cos^{-1}(0.2631)$

$A = 74.7^\circ$

$b^2 = a^2 + c^2 -2ac \cos B$

$(\sqrt{26})^2 = (\sqrt{53})^2 +(\sqrt{45})^2 - 2 * (\sqrt{53}) +(\sqrt{45}) * \cos B$

$26 = 53 +45 -97.67 * \cos B$

Collect like terms

$26 - 53 -45= -97.67 * \cos B$

$-72= -97.67 * \cos B$

Solve for $\cos B$

$\cos B = \frac{-72}{-97.67}$

$\cos B = 0.7372$

Take arc cos of both sides

$B = \cos^{-1}(0.7372)$

$B = 42.5^\circ$

For the third angle, we use:

$A + B + C = 180$ --- angles in a triangle

Make C the subject

$C = 180 - A -B$

$C = 180 - 74.7 -42.5$

$C = 62.8^\circ$
