Answer:
450m South
Step-by-step explanation:
Total distance traveled Northward :
1000m + 600m = 1600m Northward
Total distance traveled Southward :
1250m + 800m = 2050m
The Displacement :
Southward - Northward
2050m - 1650m
= 450m
Since, it covers more distance towards the south, then, direction is southward
450m South
Use two points from the graph to check if they are constant. In this case let’s use (0,50) & (2,58)
To find slope you have to do the following.
y2-y1 / x2-x1
Plug in the values, 58-50/2-0
This gives you 4.
When you use two other points, in this case (10,90) (20,130) you get a slope of 4.
This means the slope is 4.
We are trying to get an equation of y=mx+b.
We have slope already which is 4. So now we plug in y=4x + b
Now we need to find b. There is an equation to solve for b. Which is b=y1-m(x1)
But b is the y-intercept so there is already a B which is 50
So the table IS a linear equation and the equation is y=4x+50.
