8 0

Answer:

12 books per shelf

Step-by-step explanation:

She has 82 books and ten of them go to her desk. So she has 72 books left to to put on her shelves. There are a total of 6 selves.

So (72 books) / (6 shelves) = 12 books per shelves.

General equation:

{(total number of books) - (books go to her desk) ] / (total number of shelves)

s = number of books on shelves

t = total number of books

d = books on desk

x = number of selves

s = (t-d) / x

<u>Modeling With Functions </u>

We have a table of values of speeds vs distance taken for a car to stop. We are required to find a model that uses the square root and fits the given data to predict other values of d as a function of v.

By the nature of the problem, we can know that for v=0, d must be 0 too. So our model won't include a vertical shift or independent term. Being v the speed of the car and x the distance it takes to stop, we use the following model

$x(v)=A\sqrt{v}$
