How is finding the unit rate helpful before graphing a proportional relationship

Mathematics

Paul [167]3 years ago
4 0
One example, take the conversion fact that there are 5 miles for every 8 km.

Now if we want to work out how many kilometres in 6 miles, the conversion above is not going to help straight away.

We first need to find how many kilometres in ONE mile [which is the unit rate]

5 miles = 8 kilometres
1 mile = 8/5 kilometres
1 mile = 1.6 kilometres

Once we know the unit rate, we can then work out the number of kilometres for any number of miles.

For example:
6 miles = 6×1.6 = 9.6 kilometres
25.5 miles = 25.5 × 1.6 = 40.8 kilometres

Solve the system using the substitution method <br> 4x+6y=8<br> 3x+y=9
inessss [21]
4x+6y=8
3x+y=9

y = 9 - 3x

4x + 6(9-3x) = 8
4x + 54 - 18x = 8
14x = 46
x = 23/7

y = 9 - 3(23/7)
y = 9 - 69/7
y = - 6/7

Mumz [18]

Answer:

DE ≈ 16.1, ∠E ≈ 60.3°, ∠D ≈ 29.7°

Step-by-step explanation:

use pythagorean theorem:

DE² = 8² + 14² => DE = √8² + 14² ≈ 16.1

use inverse tangent function:

∠E =  tan^{-1}(14/8) ≈ 60.3°

∠D =  tan^{-1}(8/14) ≈ 29.7°
