Hello from MrBillDoesMath!
Answer:
- 28.6 % (approx)
Discussion:
14 -> 10 dollars is a drop of (14-10) or 4 dollars. The percent drop is given by
(14-10)/14 =
4/14 =
2/7 =
28.6% (approx)
Since this is a drop the percent is actually negative = - 28.6%
Thank you,
MrB
We know that -1/4x means we have a negative slope, which excludes the 1st graph from our answer choices.
Second, we know that the y-intercept has to be 3, excluding the second and third graph.
This leaves us with the 4th graph as our answer
Answer:
In 30 minutes:
The minute hand moves a distance of 25.13 inches
In 20 minutes:
The minute hand moves a distance of 16.76 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
When 60 minutes are completed, the minute hand of the relog makes a complete revolution. The distance s that the minute hand travels when making a complete revolution is:
Where r is the radius of the circumference, and in this case, the radius of the minute hand.
So:

s = 50.27 inches.
In 30 minutes (which is half of 60) the minute hand covers only half a revolution. Then the distance traveled in 30 minutes is
inches
In 20 minutes (which is one third of 60) the minute hand only travels a third of a complete revolution. Then the distance traveled in 20 minutes is
inches
