To find this I would use the pythagorean theorem which is:
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
Since we already know c = hypotenuse, and a side of the shorter sides we can plug them it like this:
11^2 + b^2 = 12^2
121 + b^2 = 144
b^2 = 23
√23 = 4.79
Round:
B. 4.8 would be your answer!
So 12 mins to 600 feet
35 mins=1900 feet
find the slope which is change in top over change in bottom (aka slope) so to find do
(y1-y2)/(x1-x2)
we want, per minute, so put the time as x1 and x2
x1=12
y1=600
x2=35
y2=1900
subsitutte
(600-1900)/(12-35)=-1300/-23=56.5 per minute
the answe ris 56.5 feet per minute or the last answer
2250 gallons. You have to think of the ratio. 300•750=225000
225000/100=2250
You have to do cross multiplication
Answer:
y = 2x + 1
Step-by-step explanation:
You can see a pattern in the group of x's that the numbers go up by 1 Also in the y-set that the numbers go up by 2. So this pattern is linear, that means the "rule" you are looking for does not have exponents or square roots or any very complicated stuff. You can use a guess and check method. Say to yourself how can I get a 7 out, when I put a 3 in? "times by2 and plus 1" works.
3 times 2, and plus1
gives you 7.
Test it on the other numbers.
-1 times2, and plus1
2(-1)+1 = -1
2(0)+1 = 1
2(1)+1 = 3
2(2)+1 = 5
It works for all the numbers.
You can calculate it also, using any two pairs of (x,y) from the data set. Put y-y on top of a fraction and x-x on the bottom. You will get the slope and that is the 2 in the "rule"
(3,7) and (2,5) for example. 7-5 so put 2 on top and 3-2 so put 1 on the bottom. 2/1 is just 2. From the point (0,1) we know the y-intercept is 1. This also gives the equation y=2x+1.
If you are just starting to learn this, probably just guess and check a rule. The rule has to work for all the points.

Answer:
B) biker at 12 mph
Step-by-step explanation:
Distance is proportional to time when velocity is constant. It is not constant in the case of stop-and-go traffic, a baseball*, or a slowing car. The speed of the person biking is given as a constant 12 mph, so that person is traveling a distance proportional to time.
_____
<em>Additional comment</em>
* It depends. The usual assumption is that horizontal speed is constant, in which case the distance from the hitter along the ground is proportional to time. If you are modeling the real world, the ball slows due to air resistance, so distance is not proportional to time.
If you are concerned with the actual distance the baseball travels through the air, the ball's speed slows as it gains height, then increases again as it falls to the ground. The speed is not constant during any part of that travel.
