Answer:

we conclude that the relationship between distance and time is NOT proportional.

Hence, she did not drive at a constant speed.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that when 'y' varies directly with 'x', we get the equation

y ∝ x

y = kx

k = y/x

where 'k' is called the constant of proportionality.

In our case, the table shows the distance Allison drove on one day of her vacation.

Time (h)              1         2        3          4        5

Distance (mi)       55    100     165     280    250

using the equation

k = y/x

susbtitute y = 55, x = 1

k = 55/1 = 55

substitute y = 100, x = 2

k = y/x

k = 100 / 2 = 50

substitute y = 165, x = 3

k = y/x

k = 165 / 3 = 55

substitute y = 280, x = 4

k = y/x

k = 280 / 4 = 70

substitute y = 250, x = 5

k = y/x

k = 250 / 5 = 50

It is clear that the value of 'k' does not remain constant.

Therefore, we conclude that the relationship between distance and time is NOT proportional.

Hence, she did not drive at a constant speed.

For the figure shown on the right, find the value of the variable and the measures of the angles. PLZ HELP
pychu [463]
P=69 degrees
Q=71 degrees
R=40 degrees

Explanation

All triangles equal up to 180 degrees.
First add all numbers without x.
Then add all xs.

5x+20=180
Subtract 20 from 180

5x=160
Divide 160 by 5

x=40

Find the measure of each angle indicated.<br> A) 95°<br> C) 26°<br> B) 92°<br> D) 20°
riadik2000 [5.3K]

Answer:

D) 20°

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the triangle sum theorem, you know that every triangle's interior angles add up to 180°. Therefore the bottom triangle's missing angle can be found by giving it the variable x.

57° + 30° + x = 180°

Simplify: 87° + x =180°

x=93°

By the vertical angles theorem, the vertical angle directly across this angle is congruent to this one. Meaning that the top triangle's angle are 67°, 93°, and unknown, which we can assign y. We can use the same method from above here.

67° + 93° + y = 180°

Simplify: 160° + y = 180°

y=20°
