You have to use subtraction because it says how many

1)The table below represents a linear function f(x) and the equation represents a function g(x):

<span>1)The table below represents a linear function f(x) and the equation represents a function g(x):

 x     y
-1  -11
 0   -1
 1    9


g(x) = 5x + 1

Part A: Write a sentence to compare the slope of the two functions and show the steps you used to determine the slope of f(x) and g(x). (6 points)

slope of the data of the table:

slope = rise / run = Δy / Δx = [ 9 - ( - 1) ] / [1 - 0] = 10/1 = 10

Also Δy / Δx =  [-1 - (-11) ] / [ 0 - (-1) ] = 10 / 1 = 10

the slope of the function given in the form f(x) = mx + b is m, so the slope of g(x) = 5x - 1 is 5.

Comparisson: the slope of the function g(x) = 5x - 1 is half the slope of the function f(x) represented by the table.

Part B: Which function has a greater y-intercept? Justify your answer.

The y-intercept is the value of y when x = 0, so it is - 1 for the function represented by the table.

The y-intercept of a function given in the form f(x) = mx + b is b, so the y-intercept of g(x) = 5x - 1 is - 1.

So, both functions have equal y-intercept.

2)The table below shows the values of y for each value of x:

x  y
1  0
1 -1
2  1
2 -2

Part A: Does the table represent a relation that is a function? Justify your answer by using the values shown in the table. (4 points)

No, it is not a function, because the relation is ambiguous: the x-coordinate 1 may have two differente values, and the x-coordinate 2 may have two different. So you cannot determine the images of x = 1 and x = 2.

Part B: The function f(x) shown below represents the number of baskets Jess made at different distances, x, in meters, from the hoop:

f(x) = -x + 6

Calculate and interpret the meaning of f(4). (4 points)

f(4) = - 4 + 6 = 2

It means that Jess made 2 baskets at the distant of 4 meters.

Part C: Write an ordered pair to represent the input and output of the function in Part B when Jess is at a distance of p meters from the hoop. (2 points)

input, p         output, f(p)

6                       -6 + 6 = 0

So the ordered pair is (6,0)

Peter says that 3/4 of a pizza is always the same as 6/8 of pizza. Nadia says that while they are equivalent fractions, 3/4 and
Whitepunk [10]
Nadia Is correct I believe, Because if a pizza is cut into 8 slices each slice is going to be smaller. but if it were to be cut into fourths it would be bigger. They are indeed equivalent but still never the same in size.

A small metal bar, whose initial temperature was 10° C, is dropped into a large container of boiling water. How long will it tak
IgorC [24]

Answer

According to newton law of cooling

\dfrac{d T}{dt} = k (T - T_a)

and

T = Ce^{kt} + T_a

now At Ta = 100

T₀ = 10 °C

T₁ = 12° C

T(0) = Ce^{0} + T_a

10 = C + 100

C = -90

now,

12 = -90e^k + 100

e^k = \dfrac{88}{90}

k = ln{\dfrac{88}{90}}

at time equal to t

T(t) = 70

T(t) = -90 (\dfrac{88}{90})^t + 100

70 = -90(\dfrac{88}{90})^t + 100

(\dfrac{88}{90})^t = \dfrac{1}{3}

t\times ln(\dfrac{88}{90}) = ln(\dfrac{1}{3})

t = 48.88 s

hence, after 48.88 s the temperature of the body will be 70°C

b) time taken to reach 98°C

T(t) = -90 (\dfrac{88}{90})^t + 100

98 = -90(\dfrac{88}{90})^t + 100

(\dfrac{88}{90})^t = \dfrac{1}{45}

t\times ln(\dfrac{88}{90}) = ln(\dfrac{1}{45})

t = 390 s

hence, after 390 s the temperature of the body will be 98°C
