Step-by-step explanation:
First figure out the equation:
We know this is a linear equation because it appears to have a constant slope
Its y-intercept is where it passes in the y-axis, so it's -8
Furthermore, you should also figure out the slope. Notice that the y value increments by 3 every 1 x-value. Rise/Run is 3/1 = 3. Thus, the slope is 3
So your equation is g(x) = 3x - 8
Now we find our inverse function, which is just swapping the x-y values.
Thus, inverse of g(x) ==> y = 3x - 8 ==> x = 3y - 8 ==> x+8 = 3y ==>
Plug in 7 for x and you get 5
Average speed =
Ishan's Speed uphill = 10mph
Time taken = 18 minutes = 18/60 = 3/10 hours
Now distance = rate × time
Distance traveled by Ishaan up hill = 10 × 3/10 = 3 miles
Now returning back home
Distance = 3 miles
Rate = 30 mph
So time taken = distance/ rate = 3/30= 1/10 hours = 1/10 ×60 = 6 minutes.
Now total distance traveled = 3 + 3 = 6 miles
Total time taken = 18 + 6 = 24 minutes = 24/60 = 2/5 hours
Average speed
=
= 15 mph
Ishaan's average speed for the entire trip from home to the gift store and back is 15mph
