Answer:
b, e
Step-by-step explanation:
a, b) ordinarily, we claim the variable on the vertical axis is a function of the variable on the horizontal axis. By that claim, <em>temperature is a function of time</em>.
If the graph passed the horizontal line test (a horizontal line intersects in one place), then we could also say time is a function of temperature. The graph does not pass that test, so we cannot make that claim.
c) The graph has negative slope between 4:00 and 5:00. Temperature is decreasing in that interval, not increasing.
d) The graph has two intervals in which it is horizontal: 5:00-9:00 and 11:00-12:00. In those intervals it is neither increasing nor decreasing.
e) The graph shows a minimum in the interval 11:00-12:00. <em>The lowest temperature first occurs at 11:00</em>.
To answer this you will need to determine which area made with the 12 square tiles would give the shortest perimeter.
Think of all the combinations to get 12 square inches
1x12, 2x6, and 3x4. The perimeters of these are 26 in, 16 in, and 14 in.
You should arrange your tiles using the 3 x 4 option. You would need 14 stones.
Divide the total distance traveled by the total time spent traveling. This will give you your average speed. S = 56.67 {\displaystyle S=56.67} . So if Ben traveled 50 mph for 3 hours, 60 mph for 2 hours, and 70 mph for 1 hour, his average speed was about 57 mph.
You could also use 48 because 8 and 12 divide into it.
