According to the table, what was the hiker’s total displacement?

Mathematics

shtirl [24]3 years ago

Answer:

A: 0

Step-by-step explanation:

Important to remember - total displacement is the direct distance between the start and finish points, and isn't always equal to the total distance travelled.

In the case of the table above, the hiker travels the same distance in opposite directions, which actually means they cancel each other out! Traveling 4 km to the west, then 4 km to east means you end up in the same spot, right? So your total displacement is 0! (or 4 - 4, which equals 0). Same happens with the north-south hikes - the hiker ends up in the same spot, as the displacement is equal to 6 - 6 = 0.

So, the total displacement of the hiker is 0. (Even though the hiker travelled 20 km!)

The function f(x) is shown in this graph.
Sladkaya [172]
The function f(x) goes down by two and over by one:
slope = rise/run = -2/1 = -2.

The slope of f(x) is -2, while the slope of g(x) is -6.

Since -2 is a greater number than -6, the answer is:
C) <span>The slope of f(x) is greater than the slope of g(x). </span>

A cylinder has radius 2.5 cm and lateral area 20 pi cm^2. What is the surface area of the cylinder in terms of pi?
Novosadov [1.4K]
This is the concept of areas of solid materials; the surface area of the cylinder whose radius is 2.5 cm and lateral area is 20 pi cm^2 will be: Surface area of cylinder is given by:
SA=(area of cyclic sides)+(lateral area)
SA=2πr^2+πrl
Area of the cyclic sides will be:
Area=2πr^2
=2*π*2.5^2
=12.5π cm^2
The lateral area is given by:
Area=20π cm^2
Therefore the surface area of cylinder will be:
SA=(12.5π+20π) cm^2
SA=32.5π cm^2
The answer is 32.5π cm^2
