Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that,

The distance that Scott walks is a function of the time he spends walking. Scott can walk 1 half mile every 8 minutes.

Let y is the distance (in miles) and x is time (in minutes).

$\dfrac{0.5}{8}=\dfrac{y}{x}\\\\\dfrac{x}{y}=16\\\\y=\dfrac{x}{16}$

The attached graph predicts the shape of the function. Hence, this is the required solution.

AleksandrR [38]

If they're travelling towards each other;
Effective speed = 75+55 = 130

Distance = 338m

Time= distance/ speed
T= 338/130
T= 2.6 hrs

Find the equation of an exponential function in the form y = ab^x, given the points (0, 3) and (2, 108/25). Please simplify your

lilavasa [31]

We have the equation:

$y=a\cdot b^x$

We know two points and we will use them to calculate the parameters a and b.

The point (0,3) will let us know a, as b^0=1.

$\begin{gathered} y=a\cdot b^x \\ 3=a\cdot b^0=a \\ a=3 \end{gathered}$

Now, we use the point (2, 108/25) to calcualte b:

$\begin{gathered} y=3\cdot b^x \\ \frac{108}{25}=3\cdot b^2 \\ 3\cdot b^2=\frac{108}{25} \\ b^2=\frac{108}{25\cdot3}=\frac{108}{3}\cdot\frac{1}{25}=\frac{36}{25} \\ b=\sqrt[]{\frac{36}{25}} \\ b=\frac{\sqrt[]{36}}{\sqrt[]{25}} \\ b=\frac{6}{5} \end{gathered}$

Then, we can write the equation as:

$y=3\cdot(\frac{6}{5})^x$

NEED ASAP Triangle XYZ is similar to triangle PDQ. The measures of the angles in triangle XYZ are shown in the table. What is th

Effectus [21]

Answer:

measure angle D = 62

Step-by-step explanation:

as the sum of measures of triangle =180

then (8x-40)+(4x-10)+(3x+20)=180

15x-30=180

x=(180+30)/15=14

XYZ SIMILAR TO PDQ

Y=D=3*14+20=62
