First let's assume that the table contains points on a straight line. Then all we have to do is to determine the slope of that line.
Suppose we go from (0,3) to (7,-28.5).
-28.5-3 -31.5
Then the slope, m, is m = ------------- = ---------- = - 9/2, or - 4.5.
7-0 7
Let's check this result!
Suppose that y = mx + b governs the relationship between x and y.
Then y = -4.5x + b
suppose we find b by substituting the coordinates from the point (0,3):
3 = -4.5(0) + b
Then b = 3, and y = -4.5x + 3. Does the point (-2,12) satisfy this equation?
Does 12 = -4.5(-2) + 3? Does 12 = 9 + 3? YES.
So y = -4.5x + 3 is the equation from which these points came, and the rate of change of y with respect to x is the slope m = -4.5, or m = -9/2.
Answer:
it is 5.7
Step-by-step explanation:
4.25 × 1.40
5.95 - 0.25
5.7 or 5.70
When finding missing side measures in a right triangle.
Soh = (Sine = Opposite / Hypotenuse)
Cah = (Cosine = Adjacent / Hypotenuse)
Toa = (Tangent = Opposite / Adjacent)
There are also reciprocals for these values:
Cho (Cosecant = Hypotenuse / Opposite)
Sha (Secant = Hypotenuse / Adjacent)
Cao (Cotanget = Adjacent / Opposite)
You would save 7 hours and 31 minutes if you take a plane
