Answer:

Part A-19 hamburgers

Part B- 38 sliders

Step-by-step explanation:

Since quarter pound of meat is 0.25, divide 4.75/0.25 to get 19 hamburgers.

Since a slider needs half as much meat as a hamburger, it needs 0.125 pounds of meat. So, divide 4.75/0.125 to get 38 sliders.

Emily is observing the velocity of a cyclist at different times. After four hours, the velocity of the cyclist is 14 km/h. After

lina2011 [118]

Assume that Emily starts from rest so that the velocity is zero at 0 hours.

Define the function v(t) for velocity in km/h, and t in hours.

Part A
From t=0 to t=4, v changes from 0 to 14.
Let v(t) = mt + b
The slope is
m = 14/4 = 3.5, and the y-intercept is
b = 0.
Therefore
v(t) = 3.5t, for 0 ≤ t ≤ 4

Fromt=4 to t=9, changes from 14 to 4.
Let v(t) = mt + b
The slope is
m = (4 - 14)/(9 - 4) = -2
Therefore
v = -2t + b
When t=4, v=14, therefore
14 = -2*4 + b = -8 + b
22 = b
v(t) = -2t + 22, for 4 < t ≤ 9.

Answer:
The equation for the velocity is
v(t) = 3.5t, 0 ≤ t ≤ 4
= -2t + 22, 4 < t ≤ 9

Part B
The equation for velocity is a piecewise function that is graphed as shown below. If we assume that the second part of the equation is valid at t=10, then
v(10) = -2*10 + 22 = 2 km/h
