Answer:
Option D. Slope is 1 if the line is vertical
Step-by-step explanation:
we have
Part A) Slope is a measure of the steepness of the line
The statement is true
Because, the steepness of a line is measured by the absolute value of the slope.
Part B) Slope is the ratio of vertical change to horizontal change
The statement is true
Because the formula to calculate the slope between two points is equal to
so
Is the ratio of vertical change to horizontal change
Part C) Slope is zero if the line is horizontal
The statement is true
Because If the line is horizontal, the y-coordinate of two points is the same
therefore
The vertical change is equal to zero
Part D) Slope is 1 if the line is vertical
The statement is Not true
Because, if the line is vertical the slope is undefined
What? This isn’t really a question!
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
A. The equation to find the distance of the flowerbed from the hive is: , where x is the distance.
B. The flowerbed is 2250 feet far from the hive.
<u><em>Explanation</em></u>
Suppose, the distance of the flowerbed from the hive is feet.
The bee flies 20 feet per second directly to a flowerbed from its hive and flies directly back to the hive at 12 feet per second.
As,
So, the time taken by the bee to reach the flowerbed seconds and the time taken to fly back to the hive seconds.
The bee stays at the flowerbed for 15 minutes or (15×60)seconds or 900 seconds and it is away from the hive for a total of 20 minutes or (20×60)seconds or 1200 seconds.
So, the equation will be.......
Thus, the distance of the flowerbed from the hive is 2250 feet.
