Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
i believe the answer is 7.33333333333 feet per second
To use the elimination method, you have to create variables that have the same coefficient, then you can eliminate them.
If you want the intersect of M and N, then:
M∩N = {4,7} (common part in M AND N)
Trapezoidal is involving averageing the heights
the 4 intervals are
[0,4] and [4,7.2] and [7.2,8.6] and [8.6,9]
the area of each trapezoid is (v(t1)+v(t2))/2 times width
for the first interval
the average between 0 and 0.4 is 0.2
the width is 4
4(0.2)=0.8
2nd
average between 0.4 and 1 is 0.7
width is 3.2
3.2 times 0.7=2.24
3rd
average betwen 1.0 and 1.5 is 1.25
width is 1.4
1.4 times 1.25=1.75
4th
average betwen 1.5 and 2 is 1.75
width is 0.4
0.4 times 1.74=0.7
add them all up
0.8+2.24+1.75+0.7=5.49
5.49
t=time
v(t)=speed
so the area under the curve is distance
covered 5.49 meters
