Answer:

<em>m=1.7</em>

<em>C=68 gr</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Function Modeling</u>

We are given a relationship between the carbohydrates used by a professional tennis player during a strenuous workout and the time in minutes as 1.7 grams per minute. Being C the carbohydrates in grams and t the time in minutes, the model is

C=1.7t

The slope m of the line is the coefficient of the independent variable, thus m=1.7

The graph of C vs t is shown in the image below.

To find how many carbohydrates the athlete would use in t=40 min, we plug in the value into the equation

C=1.7\cdot 40=68\ gr

Use a reference angle to write sec255∘ in terms of the secant of a positive acute angle. Do not include the degree symbol in you
jarptica [38.1K]

Answer: sec (75) or csc (15)

Step-by-step explanation:

255 is in the 3rd quadrant where the secant is. Here, the tangent and cotangent is positive.

Reference angle for 255 is,

255 - 180 = 75 degrees.

Therefore, sec (255) = sec (75)

= csc (90 - 75) = csc (15)
