Answer:
∆y = 95 ft
the vertical distance the shark travels is 95 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
Given;
Initial position y1= 80 ft below the surface of water = -80ft
Final Position y2 = 15 ft above the surface = +15ft
The vertical distance travelled by the shark is;
∆y = y2 - y1 = 15 - (-80) ft
∆y = 15 +80 ft
∆y = 95 ft
the vertical distance the shark travels is 95 ft
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The question lacks appropriate diagram. Find the diagram attached.
Slope is the change in coordinate of the y coordinate to the x coordinate.
Mathematically, slope m = ∆y/∆x
From the diagram ∆y is the same as 3 (along the vertical) while ∆x is the same as 1 (along the horizontal)
m = ∆y/∆x = 3/1
∆y/∆x = 3/1
y/x = 3/1
Cross multiply
y × 1 = 3 × x
y = 3x
Hence the slope of the line is y = 3x
Answer : 6
I am pretty confident that this is the answer. all you have to do is count the points from point a to b.
