We know that
speed=distance/time
solve for time
time=distance/speed
in this problem
<span>Marco runs at a rate of 6 miles per hour.
</span><span>Fernando funs at a rate of 7.2 miles per hour
Difference=7.2-6=1.2 miles/hour
so
speed=1.2 miles/hour
distance=0.3 miles
time=?
</span>time=distance/speed-----> 0.3/1.2-----> 0.25 hour-----> 0.25*60=15 minutes
<span>
the answer is
0.25 hour (15 minutes)
Alternative Method
Let
x---------> Fernando's distance when Marco is 0.3 miles apart
</span>Fernando funs at a rate of 7.2 miles per hour
<span>for distance =x
time=x/7.2------> equation 1
</span>Marco runs at a rate of 6 miles per hour.
for distance=x-0.30
time=(x-0.30)/6------> equation 2
equate equation 1 and equation 2
7.2*(x-0.3)=6x-----> 7.2x-2.16=6x
7.2x-6x=2.16------> x=2.16/1.2-------> x=1.8 miles
time=x/7.2-----1.8/7.2=0.25 hour
Answer:
The equation for the trend line would be y = -1/100x + 25
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to find the trend line, we first need to find the slope. To do so, we need to find two points on the line. The points we'll use are (0, 25) and (2500, 0). Next, we use the slope formula.
m(slope) = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)
m = (0 - 25)/(2500 - 5)
m = -25/2500
m = -1/100
Now that we have this we can use the slope and the intercept in slope intercept form to model the trend line.
y = mx + b
y = -1/100x + 25
