Answer:

<em>y=-0.2x+5. Correct choice: A)</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Modeling With Equations</u>

Let's call x the number of minutes and y the distance from home. The correct model should meet both conditions:

After 5 minutes, Ye is 4 miles from home. This is the ordered pair (5,4)

After 15 minutes, Ye is 2 miles from home. This is the ordered pair (15,2)

A) y=-0.2x+5. Testing the first point (5,4): y=-0.2*5+5=4. Correct

Testing the second point (15,2): y=-0.2*15+5=2. Correct

This is the correct choice.

B) y=11/7x-27/7. Testing the first point: (5,4) y=11/7*5-27/7=4. Correct

Testing the second point (15,2). y=11/7*15-27/7=138/7. Incorrect

Incorrect choice.

C) This equation is equal to the choice B), thus this one is incorrect.

D) y=5x-0.2. The first point (5,4) yields to:

4=5*5-0.2=24.8 Incorrect.

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a prism can be found by multiplying the area of the base by the height. It is the formula V = B*h. Here B = 108. Substitute and solve.

V = 108*8 = 864

Solve for b2 in A=1/2 h(b1+b2), if A=16, h=4, and b1=3
icang [17]

Answer:

b_{2} = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Substitute the given values into the formula

16 = \frac{1}{2} × 4(3 + b_{2})

16 = 2(3 + b_{2}) ( divide both sides by 2 )

8 = 3 + b_{2} ( subtract 3 from both sides )

5 = b_{2}
