For the answer to the question above, first find out the gradient.
<span>m = rise/run </span>
<span>=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1) </span>
<span>the x's and y's are the points given: "After three hours, the velocity of the car is 53 km/h. After six hours, the velocity of the car is 62 km/h" </span>
<span>(x1,y1) = (3,53) </span>
<span>(x2,y2) = (6,62) </span>
<span>sub values back into the equation </span>
<span>m = (62-53)/(6-3) </span>
<span>m = 9/3 </span>
<span>m = 3 </span>
<span>now we use a point-slope form to find the the standard form </span>
<span>y-y1 = m(x-x1) </span>
<span>where x1 and y1 are any set of point given </span>
<span>y-53 = 3(x-3) </span>
<span>y-53 = 3x - 9 </span>
<span>y = 3x - 9 + 53 </span>
<span>y = 3x + 44 </span>
<span>y is the velocity of the car, x is the time.
</span>I hope this helps.
The answers would be:
3. Atoms cannot be broken down into smaller pieces (or indivisible)
4. All atoms of an element are identical.
5. Chemical reactions cause atoms to be rearranged.
Although all of the statements regarding atoms are true, because of the technology during Dalton's time, the others were not yet discovered. As time progressed modifications were made which built our modern atomic theory.
