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.)
Answer:
D
Step-by-step explanation:
so if a slope of a line is perpendicular that means its the negative reciprocal of the slope.
if its 3/5, then the perpendicular slope would be -5/3
If the 7 folders on the shelf are only 1/3 of all folders, that means that there are 2 more sets of 7 in the room. 7 + 7 + 7 = 21 folders

Answer:
x = 20
Step-by-step explanation:
The sum of the three angles in the diagram is 180 degrees since they form a straight line
x + 100 + 3x = 180
Combine like terms
100 +4x = 180
Subtract 100 from each side
100+4x-100 =180-100
4x= 80
Divide each side by 4
4x/4 = 80/4
x = 20
