Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
To define the perpendicular line we need to first know the slope of the reference line graphed.
m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1) we have points (0,5) and (2,1)
m=(1-5)/(2-0)
m=-4/2
m=-2
For lines to be perpendicular their slopes must satisfy
m1m2=-1, we have a line with a slope of -2 so
-2m=-1
m=1/2, so our perpendicular line is so far
y=x/2+b, it must have point (3,2) so we can solve for b
2=3/2+b
b=1/2, so the swimmer will travel along the line
y=x/2+1/2
Answer: .833333
5/6
You could get a 1, 2, 3, 4, 6
So 5 in total over 6 options
B. The mean is the better measure for the entire week because their is no outlier.
