Answer:
- 0.83
- 0.9
- steeper than
- slower than
Step-by-step explanation:
Letting t=1 in Ted's equation, we find that he climbs 5/6 stairs in 1 second. As a decimal, 5/6 ≈ 0.83.
Michael climbs 9 stairs in 10 seconds so his rate is ...
... (9 stairs)/(10 seconds) = (9/10) stairs/second = 0.9 stairs/second
Michael's graph will be a line with a slope of 0.9; Ted's graph will be a line with a slope of about 0.83, so the line on Michael's graph is steeper.
Ted climbs fewer stairs per second, so his rate is slower than Michael's.

<em>Comment on the problem</em>
You're being asked to compare two different rates that are associated with two different people. First the comparison is one way, then it is the other way. This can be confusing. It might be helpful to draw and label a simple chart to help you keep it straight. (The attachment is such a chart scribbled on a bit of scratch paper. It is sufficient for the purpose.)
A is the right option! Because 0.40 should be in second equation with the x to represent the number of stamps multiply by 40 cents.
Answer:
A-2515.57647469
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
Firstly, we know that the function must be negative due to its shape. This means that the answer cannot be B
Next we can use the equation
that is used in order to find the vertex of the parabola.
A)

As the vertex is at x=3 on the graph, this one could be a contender.
C)

This also could be the equation
D)

This rules option D out.
For this last step, we can look at where the zeroes would be for each equation. (These values are irrational, so we cannot look at specific number)
A)

As this equation has a negative value for c, this means that one zero must be positive and the other must be negative.
This means that option A can be ruled out
C)

As this equation has a positive value for c, this means that both of the zeroes must be positive. This means that it is the only one that fits all of the criteria.
45 fish
1 L = 1,000 mL
180(1,000) = 180,000
180 L = 180,000 mL
180,000/4,000 = 45
