A(t) 800 0.057t
A(14) = 1,678.43
Triangle jkl is right of triangle what is the length of JK
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
This is a linear function because for every 5 seconds that pass, the height of the plane drops 500 feet, or -500 to be exact. So that's the slope of the line. If we look at the table we can determine where the graph goes through the h axis. The h axis is the y axis, and the t axis is the x axis. So where the graph goes through the h axis is also the y-intercept. If your teacher is any good at all, he/she would make sure that you understand beyond a shadow of a doubt that the y-intercept exists where x = 0. Looking at the table, where x (t) is 0, y (h) is 4000 feet.
Writing the linear equation then is super easy. In the form y = mx + b, we already know both the slope (-100) and the y-intercept (4000), so we fill in accordingly:
h = -100t + 4000 which appears to be choice a.
