Answer:

Part a. The graph does not model a proportional relationship.

Part b. The values in table model a proportional relation.

3.5 minutes per mile.

Step-by-step explanation:

Part a.

The graph shown in the question representing Janet's data is not a straight line although it passes through the origin.

That is why the rate of change of distance with time is not constant.

Therefore, the graph does not model a proportional relationship.

Part b.

If we plot the data in the table using distance in miles along the y-axis and time in minutes along the x-axis, then we will get a straight line passing through the origin.

So, the values in the table model a proportional relation.

Now, Tarik's unit rate in minutes per miles will be $\frac{7-0}{2-0} =3.5$ minutes per mile. (Answer)

For X, (3x-40°)=2x-10°)

KATRIN_1 [288]

Hello!

3 x - 40^0 = 2 x - 10^0

3 x - 1 = 2 x - 1

3 x = 2x

3 x - 2 x = 0

Hence, the answer is 0

I hope this helps, and have a nice day!

A train averages a speed of 90 miles per hour across the plains and 37.5 miles per hour through the mountains. If a trip of 300

densk [106]

Let p and m represent the numbers of miles in the plains and mountains, respectively.
.. p + m = 300 . . . . . . . the whole trip was 300 miles

time = distance/speed, so the trip time can be written as
.. p/90 + m/37.5 = 3 48/60
.. 5p + 12m = 1710 . . . . . . . . . . multiply by 450 to put in standard form

You can solve these two equations by any of several means. The variable p can be eliminated by subtracting 5 times the first from the second.
.. (5p +12m) -5(p +m) = 1710 -5*300
.. 7m = 210
.. m = 30

30 miles of the trip was through the mountains.

The expression below shows the population of foxes in a forest after 12x years.

Mazyrski [523]

We know that:
$(x^{m}) ^{n}= x^{mn}$
$f(x)= 50*(1.05) ^{12x} = 50 * ( 1.05^{12})^{x} = \\ =50*(1.7959) ^{x}$
Answer: A ) f ( x ) = 50(1.05)^x

HELP<br> what is the value of “ c”

Alex

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

When you match the form

... ax² + bx + c = 0

to the equation

... 3x² + 5x + 7 = 0

it is reasonable to conclude that ...

... a = 3, b = 5, c = 7.

_____

The question presumes you are familiar with the form

... ax² +bx +c = 0

which is often used as the representation of a general quadratic equation. This lets us use a, b, and c instead of specific numbers, to talk about ways of factoring, graphing, or solving equations like this.
