The distance y in miles traveled by a striped marlin in x hours is shown in the graph. Each ocean creature’s distance in miles i

s a direct variation of the time it travels in hours. Select which ocean creature is faster than the striped marlin.
A tuna travels at a speed of 43.5 miles per hour.


A wahoo fish that travels 144 miles in 3 hours and 192 miles in 4 hours.


A swordfish whose distance y in miles is represented by the equation y=60x, where x s the number of hours.


A Mako shark whose distance y in miles is represented by the equation y=31x, where x is the number of hours.

Answer:

  swordfish

Step-by-step explanation:

The graph shows the marlin travels 50 miles in 1 hour, and 150 miles in 3 hours. These numbers can be compared directly to those given for the tuna (43.5 miles in 1 hour) and the wahoo fish (144 miles in 3 hours).

The speeds of the swordfish and shark are the coefficients of x in their respective equations. The swordfish travels 60 mph, so is faster than the marlin. The shark travels 31 mph, so is slower.

<h3>Quadratic functions</h3>

Quadratic functions are functions that has a leading degree of 2.

Given the equation that represents  roller coaster’s height as shown

h = –0.025t^2 + 4t + 50

The coaster will reach the ground when h = 0

Substitute

0 = –0.025t^2 + 4t + 50

Factorize

On factorizing, the time it took the rider to reach the ground level is 171.651seconds
