7. A cheetah ran 300 feet in 2.92 seconds. What was the cheetah’s average speed in miles per hour? Show your work.

1 answer:

5 0

300 feet * mile / 5,280 feet = 0.0568181818 miles

2.92 seconds * hour / 3,600 seconds = 0.0008111111 hours

 0.0568181818 miles / 0.0008111111 hours =
 70.0498132005 miles per hour

Write an equation for the line (4,7) and ( 1,1)2. Write an equation for the graph

Nastasia [14]

ANSWER:

$y=2x-1$

STEP-BY-STEP EXPLANATION:

We have that the equation in its slope-intercept form is the following:

$\begin{gathered} y=mx+b \\ m\text{ is the slope and b is the y-intercept } \end{gathered}$

The slope can be calculated as follows:

$m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

We use the points (4,7) and (1,1) to calculate the slope:

$m=\frac{1-7}{1-4}=\frac{-6}{-3}=2$

Now, we calculate the value of b, using the point (1,1) and the slope, like this:

$\begin{gathered} 1=1\cdot2+b \\ b=-2+1 \\ b=-1 \end{gathered}$

Therefore, the equation would be:

$y=2x-1$

Parallelogram TUVW is graphed on a coordinate plane with vertices at T (3, 4), V (-10,-2), V(-6,5),

zalisa [80]

The coordinates of the dilated vertex V' is (-6p, 5p)

Transformation is the movement of a point from its initial location to a new location. Types of transformation are translation, reflection, rotation and dilation.

Dilation is the increase or decrease in the size of a figure. If a point A(x, y) is dilated by a factor k, the new point is A'(kx, ky).

The Parallelogram TUVW has vertices at T(3, 4), U(-10,-2), V(-6,5) and W (7,11). If it is dilated by a scale factor p with the origin, the new point is at:

T'(3p, 4p), U'(-10p, -2p), V'(-6p, 5p) and W'(7p, 11p)
