You should write a ( real world situation ) question that can only have whole numbers as a solution because you would divide and then you can not have a fraction left over so instead you add one. For instance there are 132 students going on a field trip. 20 students can fit on each bus. how many buses are needed? 7 because when you divide 132 by 20 you get 6 remainder 12. You can not just make 12 students walk to the location so you would add an extra bus.
f(0) means the function output when the input is x = 0. This is the same as saying the y value when x = 0.
f(x) = 3-2x
f(0) = 3-2(0)
f(0) = 3
The point (0,3) is on the graph. This is the y intercept which is where the graph crosses the y axis. The y intercept always occurs when x = 0.
So in other words, the special name for f(0) is the y intercept.
Answer:
2,800
Step-by-step explanation:
8 am at 0
8:18 at 4.5
8:48 at 7.5 miles ???
18 min = .3 hour
48 min = .8 hour
in first .3 hours speed = 4.5/.3 = 15 mph
in next .5 hours = speed = 3/.5 = 6 mph
average speed for the whole trip = 7.5 miles/.8 hours = 9.375 mph
