A used car already has 40,000 miles on its odometer. The average owner will drive 12,000 miles per year. Which function best mod
1 answer:
Answer:
y = 12,000x + 40,000
Explanation:
A linear relationship that would model the mileage of the car in this example is:
where
y is the number of miles
x is the number of years
m is the number of miles driven per year
q is the number of miles already in the car at x=0
In this problem, we have
m = 12,000 (number of miles driven per year)
q = 40,000 (number of miles already in the car at x=0)
So substituting into the equation we get

The electric potential energy of the charge is equal to the potential at the location of the charge, V, times the charge, q:
The potential is given by the magnitude of the electric field, E, times the distance, d:
So we have
(1)
However, the electric field is equal to the electrical force F divided by the charge q:
Therefore (1) becomes
And if we use the data of the problem, we can calculate the electrical potential energy of the charge:
