Based on the graph, what is the dependent variable, the equation relating the two variables, and how far will the dragonfly trav

el in 24 hours if it continues to fly at the same speed? (look at the image below)
The dependent variable is distance, the equation is x = 20y, and the dragonfly will travel 360 miles.
The dependent variable is distance, the equation is y = 20x, and the dragonfly will travel 480 miles.
The dependent variable is time, the equation is x = 20y, and the dragonfly will travel 360 miles.
The dependent variable is time, the equation is y = 20x, and the dragonfly will travel 480 miles.

Answer:

<h2>The dependent variable is distance, the equation is y = 20x, and the dragonfly will travel 480 miles.</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the graph, the dependent variable is Distance in miles, because it's on the vertical axis. Additionally, the independent variable is time in hours, because it's on the horizontal axis. However, you always put time as independent, because nothing affects time.

To find the equation, we just need to find the slope, using two points (0,0) and (2,40).

m=\frac{y_{2} -y_{1} }{x_{2} -x_{1} }=\frac{40-0}{2-0}=20

Therefore, the equation is y=20x, which shows a direct proportion between variables.

Now, in 24 hours, it would travel

y=20(24)=480

It would travel 480 miles.

Therefore, the right answer is the second choice.

40/2 = 20
so 
y = 20x

y = distance (miles) and x = time (hours)
so if x = 24 then y = 20x = 20(24) = 480

answer
<span>The dependent variable is distance, the equation is y = 20x, and the dragonfly will travel 480 miles. </span>

Harrizon [31]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  y +4 = (1/5)(x +5)

Step-by-step explanation:

The point-slope form of the equation of a line is useful when you have a given point and slope.

  y -k = m(x -h) . . . . . . line with slope m through point (h, k)

Filling in the given values, this is ...

  y +4 = 1/5(x +5)

Lena [83]

Answer:

74

Step-by-step explanation:

To receive an award, student must obtain a score at or above the upper quartile, from.tye boxplot, the upper quartile is depicted by the endpoint of the box. Hence, the upper quartile of the distribution is 74. Hence only stude Ts who score 74 and above will receive an award Hence, the minimum score required is 74.

(8.218+9.93)+(17.782+0.07)
Licemer1 [7]
First, using the order of operations(PEMDAS), you would solve what is inside the parenthesis. 
<span>(8.218 + 9.93) + (17.782 + 0.07)
(</span>18.148) + (17.852)
18.148 + 17.852

Now, all you would have to do is add the two sums. 
18.148 + 17.852 = <span>36
</span>
The answer would be 36. 

I hope this helps!
