Using linear functions, it is found that Rowan and Kennedy will have read the same number of pages in 10 minutes.

What is a linear function?

  • A linear function is modeled by:

y = ax + b

In which:

  • a is the slope, which is the rate of change, that is, by how much y changes when x changes by 1.
  • b is the y-intercept, which is the value of y when x = 0.

For Rowan, we have that:

  • He has already read 20 pages, hence the y-intercept is b = 20.
  • He reads 1.5 pages per minute, hence the slope is a = 1.5

Then:

y_R = 1.5x + 20

For Kennedy, we have that:

  • He has already read 25 pages, hence the y-intercept is b = 25.
  • He reads 1 page per minute, hence the slope is a = 1

Then:

y_K = x + 25

They will have read the same number of pages after x minutes, for which:

y_R = y_K

Then:

1.5x + 20 = x + 25

0.5x = 5

x = \frac{5}{0.5}

x = 10

What is the distance between (5,10) and (5,2)?
Licemer1 [7]
The distance is 8, since the x co-ordinate stays 5, the y co-ordinate goes from 10 to 2, which is an 8 distance

I really need help on this please
Gala2k [10]

Answer:

When you simplify you get 5/6. Hence both x can be removed and when divided by the exponents you get x cannot be equal to zero. The Answer is the second.

Please help me answer this question. I will mark braineist to first answers no work nessacary.
andriy [413]

Plug in the given values and you'll see its option 2.

x=0 , f(x)  = 0^2 + 1 = 1

x = 1 , f(x) = 1^2 + 1 = 2

x = 2, f(x) = 2^2 + 1 = 5
