A. The y-intercept of the function is equal to the value of y when x = 0, so y = 8 ft
<u><em /></u>
This means that the horse is already 8 ft away from the barn initially.
<u><em /></u>
B. The average rate of change represents the slope of the equation. This can be calculated using the formula:
<u><em /></u>
m = (158 – 58) / (3 – 1) = 50 ft / hour
<u><em /></u>
C. Since we already have our y-intercept and slope, we can establish the line equation:
<u><em /></u>
y = 50 x + 8
<u><em /></u>
When y = 508 then x is,
<u><em /></u>
508 = 50 x + 8
<u><em /></u>
50 x = 500
<u><em /></u>
x = 10 hours
<u><em /></u>
<u><em>It takes 10 hours to reach a displacement of 508 ft.</em></u>

Summary:
The clock ticked on, repeating and repeating its sounds into the emptiness. And the rain tapped on the empty house, echoing. At eight-thirty the eggs were shrivelled and the toast was like stone. The five spots of paint - the man, the woman, the children, the ball- remained. It sniffed the air and scratched the kitchen door. Behind the door, the stove was making pancakes which filled the house with a rich baked odour and the scent of maple syrup. In the cellar, the incinerator glowed suddenly and a whirl ofsparks leaped up the chimney. The dinner dishes manipulated like magic tricks, and in the study a click. Dawn showed faintly in the east. Among the ruins, one wallstood alone. Within the wall, a last voice said, over and over again and again, even as the sun rose to shine upon the heaped rubble and steam: "Today is August 5, 2026, today is August 5, 2026, today is..."
BRAINLIST PLS!
Answer:
B. They can't tell who is a civilian and who is an enemy combatant.
Explanation:
In the book <em>Sunrise Over Fallujah </em>by Walter Dean Myers, the book is centered about an 18 year old US soldier named Robin but called Birdy in Kuwait where he is waiting for orders on where next to go. Eventually, he is sent to Iraq after going through confusing Rules of Engagement about who to shoot and who not to shoot.
<u>The Civil Affairs unit which happens to be Birdy's unit is tasked with the responsibility of gaining the trust of the local Iraqis to trust the American soldiers.</u>
Their confusion about who is a friend or foe in Iraq is characterized when they start getting remote IED attacks and do not know where it is coming from or who to trust.
The answer is C. flexible
