Question

Zane is a dangerous fellow who likes to go rock climbing in active volcanoes. One time, when he was 20 meters below the edge of a volcano, he heard some rumbling, so he decided to climb up out of there as quickly as he could. He managed to climb up 4 meters each second and get out of the volcano safely.Graph the relationship between Zane's elevation relative to the edge of the volcano (in meters) and time (in seconds).

Answer 1

Answer:

the answer is below

Step-by-step explanation:

We must find the equation in order to make the graph.

According to the statement, the equation would be:

E = v * t - Ei

Being Ei (20) the initial elevation, t the elapsed time and the speed that is 4, we replace and we are left with:

 E = 4 * t - 20

Now, we must calculate the corresponding values:

E (0) = 4 * 0 - 20 = -20

E (1) = 4 * 1 - 20 = -16

E (2) = 4 * 2 - 20 = -12

E (3) = 4 * 3 - 20 = -8

E (4) = 4 * 4 - 20 = -4

E (5) = 4 * 5 - 20 = 0

If we graph we would have the attached image:
