Explanation:
The slope of the line is found by the method: rise/run
You calculate how much the slope rises(goes up) and divide it by run(goes horizontal).
One more thing to note is that: the slope is negative BECAUSE ITS DECREASING.
Your answer: -3/2
(a) We have ⌊<em>x</em>⌋ = 5 if 5 ≤ <em>x</em> < 6, and similarly ⌊<em>x</em>/3⌋ = 5 if
5 ≤ <em>x</em>/3 < 6 ==> 15 ≤ <em>x</em> < 18
(b) ⌊<em>x</em>⌋ = -2 if -2 ≤ <em>x</em> < -1, so ⌊<em>x</em>/3⌋ = -2 if
-2 ≤ <em>x</em>/3 < -1 ==> -6 ≤ <em>x</em> < -3
In general, ⌊<em>x</em>⌋ = <em>n</em> if <em>n</em> ≤ <em>x</em> < <em>n</em> + 1, where <em>n</em> is any integer.
I do not understand what is being asked in (c) and (d), so you'll have to clarify...
Answer:
6 seconds
Step-by-step explanation:
Initial distance of Mario from motion detector = 2 ft
Speed of Mario = 1.5 ft/sec
Total distance of Mario from motion detector = 11 ft
Total distance moved by Mario while walking at the rate of 1.5 ft/sec = 11 - 2 = 9 ft
Given that:
Distance = 9 ft
Speed = 1.5 ft/sec
<em>Formula:</em>


So, at <em>6 seconds</em>, Mario will be 11 ft from the motion detector.
