Answer:

Clark is faster because the slope of his graph is bigger.

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of Henry’s graph can be found as 0.5 because the equation is in slope intercept. (The coefficient of the x value is the slope)

Since there is a point at (12,18) in Clark’s graph, you can conclude Clark’s slope as 18/12. (Rise over run)

18/12 = 1.5

1.5 is bigger than 0.5 so Clark travels faster.

Answer:

39°

Step-by-step explanation:

$\angle RUS +\angle SUT = \angle RUT\\\\5x-4+3x+6 = 90\\\\8x+2=90\\\\8x=88\\\\x=11$

and now for SUT

$\angle SUT = 3(11)+6= 33+6 = 39$

The equation of the given Absolute Value Function is; y = |-2x + 4|

<h3>How to interpret Linear Graphs?</h3>

We can see that the given graph is a Linear graph but since it is V-shaped, we can say that it is a graph of an absolute value function.

Now, from the graph we see that;

At x = 0, y = 4

At x = 1, y = 2

At x = 2, y = 0

At x = 3, y = -2

At x = 4, y = 0

At x = 5, y = 2

We can see that the y-intercept is at y = 4.

Slope between two consecutive points is;

(2 - 4)/(1 - 0) = -2

Equation is; y = -2x + 4

Now, this is an absolute value function and as such we will write it as;

y = |-2x + 4|

Quadrilateral ABCD ABCD is similar to quadrilateral EFGH EFGH. The lengths of the three longest sides in quadrilateral ABCD ABCD

Kay [80]

Sketch the two quadrilaterals and label them as shown in the figure below.

Let x = length of the 4th side of ABCD.

Because ABCD ~ EFGH, therefore
x/5 = 14/6

That is,
x = (5/6)*14 = 11.67 ft

Answer: D. 11.7 ft

On Monday Godswill ate some grapes. On Tuesday he

garri49 [273]

Answer: He ate 8 grapes on Monday.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let be "x" the number of grapes Godswill ate on Monday.

You know that he ate 6 more grapes than he had on Monday. This can be expressed with:

$x+6$

Since each day that week, he ate 6 more grapes than the day before and he realized on Friday he had eaten a total of 100 grapes this week, you can write the following expression and solve for "x":

$x+(x+6)+(x+12)+(x+18)+(x+24)=100\\\\5x+60=100\\\\x=\frac{40}{5}\\\\x=8$
