The type of limacon graphed is a convex.
Answer:
26 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
Given: 24 miles drive to north.
10 miles drive to east.
Driving pattern form a right angle triangle, which has three leg including straight line distance from starting point (hypotenous).
Now, using Pythogorean theoram to find straight line distance from starting point.
h²= a²+b²
Where, h is hypotenous
a is opposite leg
b is adjacent leg.
⇒h²= 
⇒
⇒
Taking square root on both side, remember; √a²= ±a
⇒
∴ 
Ignoring -26 as distance cannot be negative.
Hence, 26 miles is the straight line distance from starting point.
A parabola is a curved shape in a graph that has either a maximum or a minimum (which is the fixed point) and any point is equidistant from that fixed point. You can tell it is a parabola because most likely in an equation the x with be squared.
since the graph has direct variation as data in x axis increases y also increases.
so we need to find how many miles travelled per galloon .
we distance travelled per gallon =total distance travelled/galoons of fuel used.

for part b) slope=rise/run



slope of the graph is 2
