While on a trip, you notice that the video screen on the airplane, in addition to showing movies and news, records your altitude (in kilometers) above the ground.

As the plane starts its descent
(at time x = 0), you record the following data: Time, x (min.) Altitude, y (km)
12 0 10 8 16 16 18 4 110 12

If you were to graph these points on a graph, you would notice that the line that forms represents a linear function. What is the practical meaning of slope in this situation?

a. For every minute that passes, the airplane descends 1 kilometer.
b. For every minute that passes, the airplane ascends 1 kilometer.
c. For every 2 minutes that passes, the airplane descents 1 kilometer.
d. For every minute that passes, the airplane ascends 2 kilometers. C. ​

How to find the rate of change of a linear equation?

Suppose that the considered linear equation is of the form

y=mx+c

Then, when we change x by 1 unit, then:

The rate of change is the slope. The formula for slope is

m = y2 - y1 / x2 - x1

Using the first two points, (0, 12) and (2, 10), we have

m = (10-12)/(2-0)

m  = -2/2

m = -1

This means the plane descends 1 km per minute which means in 3 minutes' time, the plane descends 3 km.

Therefore, option a. For every minute that passes, the airplane descends 1 kilometer.

As she approaches the stop sign at the end of her street, she slows down at a steady pace until she comes to a complete stop. After waiting at the stop sign for her turn to go, she starts pedaling again and her speed steadily increases at a slower pace than when she first left her house. She reaches a comfortable speed and rides at this speed until she approaches another stop sign, causing her to steadily slow down until she again comes to a complete stop.

What percentage of the shape is purple?
Write your answer using a percent sign (%).

Answers

First, we see a rectangle shape with little squares in it. The length is 5 and the width is 4. If we multiply them, we get 20 square units. However, we will use the 20 to solve the question. Also, we see that there are only 3 squares.

3/20

Let's divide the fraction. 3 / 20 is 0.15. We result with 0.15. Now, we multiply  the decimal by 100 to get a percent; we are converting from decimal to percent. As a result, we get 15% as our answer.

3/20 = 0.15 x 100 = 15%

how do i write an equation in point-slope form for a horizontal line that passes through(4, –2)??

Answers

Answer:

[tex]y = -2[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Horizontal Line

[tex](x_1,y_1) = (4,-2)[/tex]

Required

Determine the equation

The equation is calculated using:

[tex]y - y_1 =m(x-x_1)[/tex]

Where

[tex]m = slope[/tex]

Because the line is a horizontal line, then:

[tex]m = 0[/tex]

Substitute 0 for m and values for x1 and y1 in [tex]y - y_1 =m(x-x_1)[/tex]

[tex]y - (-2) = 0(x -4)[/tex]

[tex]y +2 = 0(x -4)[/tex]

[tex]y +2 = 0[/tex]

Subtract 2 from both sides

[tex]y +2-2 = 0-2[/tex]

[tex]y = -2[/tex]

Hence, the equation is: [tex]y = -2[/tex]

Consider a set of data in which the sample mean is 73.4 and the sample standard deviation is 4.9. Calculate the z-score given that x

Answers

This question is incomplete, the complete question is;

Consider a set of data in which the sample mean is 73.4 and the sample standard deviation is 4.9. Calculate the z-score given that x  = 69.5.

Round your answer to two decimal places.

Answer: the z-score is -0.80

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that;

mean μ = 73.4

standard deviation σ = 4.9

x = 69.5

z-score = ?

z = (x - μ) / σ

we substitute

z =  (69.5 - 73.4) / 4.9

z = -3.9 / 4.9

z = - 0.7959 ≈ -0.80    { 2 decimal places }

Therefore, the z-score is -0.80

Answer:

The equation of line that passes through point (2,-1) and has a slope of -3 is [tex]\mathbf{y=-3x+5}[/tex]

Option A is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to write equation of line that passes through point (2,-1) and has a slope of -3

The equation is written in slope-intercept form: [tex]y=mx+b[/tex] where m is slope and b is y-intercept.

We are given slope: m = -3

We need to find y-intercept (b)

Using the point (2,-1) and slope m=-3, we can find y-intercept

[tex]y=mx+b\\-1=-3(2)+b\\-1=-6+b\\b=-1+6\\b=5[/tex]

So, we get y-intercept b = 5

Now, the required equation having slope m =-3 and y-intercept b = 5 will be:

[tex]y=mx+b\\y=-3x+5[/tex]

So, the equation of line that passes through point (2,-1) and has a slope of -3 is [tex]\mathbf{y=-3x+5}[/tex]

Option A is correct.

What is the solution to −6x−4≥−2(x−4) ?

x≤−3

x≤−1

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer is: Option 1: x≤-3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given inequality is:

[tex]-6x-4\geq -2(x-4)[/tex]

First of all, we will distribute -2 into the bracket

[tex]-6x-4\geq -2x+8[/tex]

Then we will add 4 on both sides

[tex]-6x-4+4\geq -2x+8+4\\-6x \geq -2x+12[/tex]

Adding 2x on both sides

[tex]-6x+2x\geq -2x+12+2x\\-4x\geq 12[/tex]

Dividing both sides by 4

[tex]\frac{-4x}{4} \geq \frac{12}{4}\\-x \geq 3[/tex]

As there should be only x on the left side of the inequality we will multiply the inequality with -1.

Multiplying the inequality with -1 reverses the sign of inequality

So,

[tex]x \leq -3[/tex]

Hence,

The correct answer is: Option 1: x≤-3

Answer:

2 4/12

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let T: P2 → P3 be the transformation that maps a polynomial p(t) into the polynomial (t-2)p(t).

a. Find the image of p(t) = 2-t + t^2
b. Show that T is a linear transformation.
c. Find the matrix for T relative to the bases (1, t,t^2) and (1,t,t^2,t^3).

Answers

(a) Applying T to p(t) = 2 - t + t ² gives

T ( p(t) ) = (t - 2) (2 - t + t ²) = -4 + 4t - 3t ² + t ³

(b) T is a linear transformation if for any p(t) and q(t) in P₂ and complex scalars a and b, the image of any linear combination of p and q is equal to the linear combination of the images of p and q. In other words,

T ( a p(t) + b q(t) ) = a T ( p(t) ) + b T ( q(t) )

Let

p(t) = α₀ + αt + αt ²

q(t) = β₀ + βt + βt ²

Compute the images of p and q :

T ( p(t) ) = (t - 2) (α₀ + αt + αt ²)

… = -2α₀ + (α₀ - 2α₁) t + (α₁ - 2α₂) t ² + αt ³

Similarly,

T ( q(t) ) = -2β₀ + (β₀ - 2β₁) t + (β₁ - 2β₂) t ² + βt ³

Then

a T ( p(t) ) + b T ( q(t) ) = a (-2α₀ + (α₀ - 2α₁) t + (α₁ - 2α₂) t ² + αt ³) + b (-2β₀ + (β₀ - 2β₁) t + (β₁ - 2β₂) t ² + βt ³)

… = c₀ + ct + ct ² + ct ³

where

c₀ = -2 (a α₀ + b β₀)

c₁ = a (α₀ - 2α₁) + b (β₀ - 2β₁)

c₂ = a (α₁ - 2α₂) + b (β₁ - 2β₂)

c₃ = a α₂ + b β

Computing the image of a p(t) + b q(t) would give the same result; just multiply it by t - 2 and expand. This establishes that T is indeed linear.

(c) Find the image of each vector in the basis for P₂ :

T (1) = (t - 2) × 1 = t - 2

T (t ) = (t - 2) t = t ² - 2t

T (t ²) = (t - 2) t ² = t ³ - 2t ²

Then

[tex]T=\begin{bmatrix}-2&0&0\\1&-2&0\\0&1&-2\\0&0&1\end{bmatrix}[/tex]
