Answer:

(a) $y = 0.025x+15$

(b) 18.5 minutes

(c) 450.4 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$290\ minutes = \$22.25$

$360\ minutes = \$24.00$

Solving (a): Determine the linear equation

First, we need to calculate the slope (m)

$m = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}$

Where

$(x_1,y_1) = (290,22.25)$

$(x_2,y_2) = (360,24.00)$

So, we have:

$m = \frac{24.00 - 22.25}{360 - 290}$

$m = \frac{1.75}{70}$

Multiply through by 100

$m = \frac{1.75 * 100}{70 * 100}$

$m = \frac{175}{7000}$

Next, is to calculate the equation of the line using:

$y - y_1 = m(x - x_1)$

Recall that:

$(x_1,y_1) = (290,22.25)$

$m = \frac{175}{7000}$

$y - 22.25 = \frac{175}{7000}(x - 290)$

$y - 22.25 = \frac{175x}{7000} - \frac{175}{7000} * 290$

$y - 22.25 = \frac{175x}{7000} - \frac{50750}{7000}$

Add 22.25 to both sides

$y = \frac{175x}{7000} - \frac{5075}{700} + 22.25$

$y = \frac{175x}{7000} + \frac{-5075 + 15575}{700}$

$y = \frac{175x}{7000} + \frac{10500}{700}$

$y = 0.025x+15$

(b) Solve for y when x = 140

$y = 0.025x+15$

Substitute 140 for x

$y = 0.025 * 140 + 15$

$y = 3.5 + 15$

$y = 18.5$

(c) Solve for x when y = 26.25

$y = 0.025x+15$

Substitute 26.25 for y

$26.25 = 0.025x + 15$

Solve for 0.025x

$0.025x = 26.26 - 15$

$0.025x = 11.26$

Solve for x

$x = 11.26/0.025$

$x = 450.4\ minutes$

Y_Kistochka [10]

Answer: 4.5 metres

Step-by-step explanation:

Using Hooke's Law ()

We need to find the spring constant of the bungee cord with the given extension and force, we can do this by substituting in known values.

Now we have found the spring constant of the bungee cord, we can substitute it in for the a different force. As the cord is the same we can use the same spring constant.
