Step-by-step explanation:
i created this table in desmos and then entered this equation underneath:
y₁ (tilda sign) = mx₁ + b
desmos will draw a line of best fit and provide the correlation coefficient, slope, and y-intercept
Answer:
- 3, - 11, - 35, - 107
Step-by-step explanation:
Using the recursive formula with f(1) = - 3 , then
f(2) = - 2 + 3f(1) = - 2 + 3(- 3) = - 2 - 9 = - 11
f(3) = - 2 + 3f(2) = - 2 + 3(- 11) = - 2 - 33 = - 35
f(4) = - 2 + 3f(3) = - 2 + 3(- 35) = - 2 - 105 = - 107
Thus the first four terms are
- 3, - 11, - 35, - 107
If we represent Tobin's speed as x, we can write her opponent's speed as
x-2 (since Tobin is 2 more than them). In addition, since it's in miles per hour, and 45 minutes is 3/4 of an hour, we can say that 3/4ths of her speed in miles per hour is how long the race is, so (3/4)(x-2)=distance of race. In addition, since it only took Tobin 30 minutes, and 30 minutes is half an hour, x/2 (half of her miles per hour) is the length of the race, so (3/4)(x-2)=(1/2)x. Expanding it, we get 3x/4-6/4=x/2. Subtracting x/2 (or 2x/4) from both sides, we get x/4-6/4=0 and by adding 6/4 to both sides we get x/4=6/4. Multiplying 4 to both sides, we get that x=6=Tobin's speed in miles per hour
