Julissa is running a 10-kilometer race at a constant pace. After running for 18 minutes, she completes 2 kilometers. After runni

ng for 54 minutes, she completes 6 kilometers. Her trainer writes an equation letting t, the time in minutes, represent the independent variable and k, the number of kilometers, represent the dependent variable.
Which equation can be used to represent k, the number of kilometers Julissa runs in t minutes?

After running for 18 minutes, Julissa completes 2 kilometers. If she is running a 10-kilometer race at a constant pace, then she comletes 1 kilometer after running 9 minutes. Now you can find the distance she run after 1 minute. This is \dfrac{1}{9} km.

Let t be the time in minutes. Then k, the number of kilometers, can be found from proportion:

\dfrac{1}{9}\ km - 1 minute

k km - t minutes.

Thus,

\dfrac{\dfrac{1}{9}}{k}=\dfrac{1}{t},\\ \\k=\dfrac{1}{9}\cdot t.

Answer: k=\dfrac{1}{9}\cdot t.

18 mins = 2 km
1 min = 2 ÷ 18 km = 1/9km

at t minutes
 k = t/9 km

---------------------------------
Answer: k = t/9 km

Which of the following are not linear functions? Place a check mark in the box next to each equation that is not a linear functi
insens350 [35]

Answer:

D. y = 2x² + 1

E. y = x²

Step-by-step explanation:

Linear function:

A linear function has the following format:

y = ax + b

In which a is the slope and b is the y-intercept. A constant function is linear, as it is the special case in which a = 0.

In this question:

In options D and E, the highest exponent of x is 2, which means that they are not linear functions, and so these options are the answer.

Write the equation for a line perpendicular to y=-3x+18 that goes through the point (-12,6)
Hatshy [7]

Answer:

y=\frac{1}{3} x -14

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of the line you will find should be in the form y =mx+c , where m is the gradient and c is the y intercept.

The gradient of a line that is perpendicular to a line [of a known gradient] is the negative reciprocal of the gradient of the first. i.e. if a is the known gradient and the perpendicular gradient is b, ab = -1. Therefore the -3b=-1 and b= 1/3

you can now write y = mx +c as y = 1/3x +c

As you have been given a coordinate, you can input these values into y= 1/3x + c

-12 = 1/3(6) +c

-12 - 2 = c

c = -14

hence the equation of the line is y= 1/3x -14

Solve -4 < 3x+2<5.
denis-greek [22]

The answer choice which represents the solution to the inequality as given in the task content is; x>-2 or x≤ 1.

<h3>What is the solution of the give complex inequality?</h3>

On this note, it follows that the inequalities can be solved individually as follows;

-4 < 3x +2

-6 < 3x

x > -2

Also, 3x +2 ≤ 5

3x ≤ 3

x ≤ 1.

Ultimately, the correct answer choice is; Choice C; x>-2 or x≤ 1.
