Answer:B
I got it right on my test
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
A. Slope is -12 feet per second
B. Yes, it is constant.
<u>Skills needed: Linear Equations, Substitution and Division</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
1) Solving Part A (we need to find the slope):
- The slope is
-->
,
,
, and
are all values from the table. We know that the left column is the x-values, and the right column is the y-values as that is the conventional way of depicting them.
2) Using the y-values of 1150 and 1090, and their corresponding x-values (5 and 10 respectively), we can get the slope:
-
==>
==>
==>
, so the slope is -12.
==================================================================
1) Part B (analysis)
We can see that no matter what 2 y-values and their corresponding x values we use, the slope always is the same. This means that the rate of change is constant.
Add the number and that should be your numbers
The answer in the green box should be 9.
