This question has 2 parts. Answer both parts. Sara started with 12 comic books in her collection. She collected the same number

of comic books each month until she had 20 comic books in the 4th month. Ashton started with 2 comic books in his collection and continues to collect 3 comic books each month.
Part A

Interpret the origin on the graph. Also, describe the scale of each axis by telling what does each unit on the x-axis and the y-axis represent.


Part B

Compare the slope and y-intercept for the graphs of each function in terms of the quantities.

Answer:

see the explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A

<u>Sara</u>

Find out the equation of the line

The equation of the line in slope intercept  form is equal to

y=mx+b

where

m is the slope

b is the y-intercept

x is the number of months

y is the number of comic books

we have

b=12\ comic\ books

<em>Find the slope m</em>

we have the points

(0,12) and (4,20)

m=(20-12)/(4-0)\\m=2\ comic/month

substitute

y=2x+12

Each unit on the x-axis represent 0.5 months and each unit  on the y-axis represent 4 comic books

The origin of the graph is the point (0,12), this point represent the y-intercept or the initial value (the value of y when the value of x is equal to zero)

<u>Ashton</u>

Find out the equation of the line

The equation of the line in slope intercept  form is equal to

y=mx+b

where

m is the slope

b is the y-intercept

x is the number of months

y is the number of comic books

we have

b=2\ comic\ books

m=3\ comic/month

substitute

y=3x+2

The origin of the graph is the point (0,2), this point represent the y-intercept or the initial value (the value of y when the value of x is equal to zero)

Part B

Compare the slope and y-intercept for the graphs of each function in terms of the quantities

<em>Sara</em>

b=12\ comic\ books

m=2\ comic/month

<em>Ashton</em>

b=2\ comic\ books

m=3\ comic/month

therefore

Sara's graph has the greater y-intercept than Ashton's graph

Ashton's graph has the greater slope than Sara's graph

HELPP!!<br> Select the correct answer.<br> What is the value of arcsin ?
Schach [20]

For this case we have that by definition, it is called arcsine (arcsin) from a number to the angle that has that number as its sine.

We must find the arcsin (\frac {\sqrt {2}} {2}). Then, we look for the angle whose sine is \frac {\sqrt {2}} {2}.

We have to, by definition:

Sin (45) = \frac {\sqrt {2}} {2}

So, we have to:

arcsin (\frac {\sqrt {2}} {2}) = 45

Answer:

Option B

Find the volume of the solid of revolution formed by rotating about the x--axis the region bounded by the given curves.
Maslowich

Answer:

16 pi cubic units

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a region is bounded by

f(x)=√x, y=0, x=1, x=4

And the region is rotated about x axis.

We can find that here radius would be y value and height would be dx

So volume would be as follows:

If f(x) is rotated about x axis volume

= \pi \int\limits^b_a {y^2} \, dx \\=\pi \int\limits^4_1 {x} \, dx\\=\pi *x^2  ^4_1\\= \pi*16-1\\=15\pi

cubic units.

Wastewater is filling barrels at the rate of 11 quarts per hour. The recycling facility picks up 120 full barrels on each trip,
Tpy6a [65]
11×24=quarts per day. That's 264.
264/12=full barrels per day. That's 22.
120/22=frequency of pick ups. That's 5.45. So the barrels get picked up every 5 and a half days.
