We are given

Tobias dropped a tennis ball from a height of 60 meters. The time in seconds it takes for the ball to fall 60 feet is 0.25(radical60).

so, time is

T=0.25\sqrt{60} =\frac{1}{4} \sqrt{60}

we have to approximate it's value

First approximation set:

we know that

49

we can take sqrt all the sides

\sqrt{49}

we can simplify it

7

Divide all sides by 4

\frac{7}{4}< \frac{1}{4} \sqrt{60}

Second approximation set:

7.7

Divide all sides by 4

\frac{7.7}{4}

1.925

Third approximation set:

7.74

Divide all sides by 4

\frac{7.74}{4}

1.935

so, we get

t=1.94seconds......Answer

Can someone help me
barxatty [35]

Answer:

y= (-6/5)x -2

Step-by-step explanation:

y=mx+b , where m is the slope, and b is the y -intercept

the y -intercept is where the line intersects the y-axis so b = -2

the slope m= y(rise) /x(run)  = 6/-5 = -6/5 ( to find the slope you have to know how to get from any point on the line to another point on the same line; start at point (0,-2) go up 6(y-rise) and to the left 5(x-run) at point (-5,4))

y= (-6/5)x -2

Im having a mental breakdown can someone please just do this for me

The slopes of the original function y = |x| are m = 1 and m = -1 (m is the variable used to represent slope).

when you add a coefficient (number) in front of |x|, it will either make the slopes steeper or more flat. the larger the value of the coefficient, the steeper the slope will be (vice versa for a coefficient smaller than 1, which would make the slope more flat than the parent(original) function).

because these are absolute value functions, they will have two slopes. one slope for the end going up from left to right, and one for the end going down from left to right. this means that one slope must be positive and the other slope must be negative for each function.

with this in mind, the slopes of y = 2|x| are m = 2 and m = -2. the coefficient of 2 narrows the function by a factor of 2 (it is twice as narrow as the parent function). the same rules apply to y = 4|x| with the slopes of this function as m = -4 and m = 4 (it is 4 times narrower than the parent function).

with the fraction coefficients, the function is being widened. therefore, the slopes of y = 1/2 |x| are m = -1/2 and m = 1/2. the slopes of y = 1/5 |x| are m = -1/5 and m = 1/5.
