Answer:
a) 0.75 inch/month
b) y-20 = 0.75(x-4)
c) 17 inches
d) 44
a) 0.8 inch/month
b) yes
c) y = 0.8x + 18.8
d) 18.8 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
a) (21.5-20)/(6-4) = 1.5/2
= 0.75 inch/month
If this is correct, 2 months after the 6th month (month 8), it should be
21.5 + 2(0.75) = 23
Which it is
b) y-y1 = m(x-x1)
Where y is the length, x is the months, m is the slope and (x1,y1) is a known point
At x = 4, y = 20
y-20 = 0.75(x-4)
Or
y = 0.75x + c
20 = 0.75(4) + c
c = 20 - 3 = 17
y = 0.75x + 17
c) at birth, 4 months before month 4
So, 20 - 0.75(4) = 17
Which is also the y-intercept
d) y = 0.75(36) + 17
y = 27 + 4 = 44 inches
Generally, at the age of 3 years (36 month) the length is between 35 and 40 inches
a) slope = (30-22)/(14-4)
= 0.8 inch/month
b) 0.8 > 0.75, so yes
c) When x = 4, y = 22
y-22 = 0.8(x - 4)
y - 22 = 0.8x - 3.2
y = 0.8x + 18.8
y-intercept is 18.8
d) at birth, x = 0.
Length was 18.8 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: 4in
Step-by-step explanation:
Volume of a cylinder = πR²H
Volume of a cone = 1/3πr²h
πR²H = 1/3πr²h
π is very common so it could be cancelled, so the equation now becomes
R²H = 1/3r²h
3R²H = r²h
Now substitute for the values
h = 3 x 2² x 3
--------------
3²
= 9 x 4/9
= 4in.
Therefore, the height of the cone
h = 4in.
7 divided by -1 equals -7
