Any and all help would be appreciated!
1 answer:
The way we can find out the unit rate (also known as the <em><u>SLOPE</u></em>) is by using the table as coordinates!
The slope formula is
With the table, the TIME column can be "x"
The DISTANCE column can be "y"
____________________________
As coordinates, it would look like...
(0,0)
(20, 25)
(30, 37.5) and so on!
_____________________________
All we need to do now is use 2 of these coordinates and plug them into the slope formula in their correct places to find the unit rate!
Example:
solve!
= 12.5/10 ⇒ 1.25 ( or 5/4 in fraction form)

The given shapes area is found to be 4 square yards.
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1; To determine the area of an indefinite shape we must divide it into the shapes that we know. The shape that is given can be split into a triangle with a rectangle in it.
Step 2; Any given triangles area is half the multiplication of its base value and its height value. In the given diagram, the base of the triangle measures a length of 5 yards and the length from base to top is 4 yards
Area of the triangle = * base * height =
* 5 * 4 = 10 square yards.
The given rectangle measures a length of 3 yards and a width of 2 yards. The area of any given rectangle is the multiplication of its length and width.
Area of the rectangle = Length * Width = 3 yards * 2 yards = 6 square yards.
Step 3; To find the total area of the shape we must subtract the the rectangle's area from the triangle's area.
Area of given shape = Area of the triangle - Area of the rectangle.
Area of given shape = 10 square yards - 6 square yards = 4 square yards.
