I WILL AWARD BRAINLIEST!! PLEASE HELP!!! The figure below shows the movement of a pedestrian from point B to point E. Using the

graph, answer the following questions:
A) What is the speed of the pedestrian BC, CD, and DE?

B) After what time since the stop did he arrive at point E?


C) Write the formulas for function d(t) for sections BC, CD, and DE

A) The speed of the pedestrian BC is 5 km/h

    The speed of the pedestrian CD is 0 km/h

    The speed of the pedestrian DE is 5 km/h

B) He arrived E since the stop after 6 hours

C) The formula for section BC is d(t) = 40 - 5t

    The formula for section CD is d(t) = 20

    The formula for section DE is d(t) = 50 - 5t

Step-by-step explanation:

A)

In the time-distance graph the speed is the rate of change of distance

and that mean speed = Δd/Δt ⇒ (slope of the line)

In line BC:

1. Δd = 40 - 20 = 20 km

2. Δt = 4 - 0 = 4 hours

3. The speed = 20 ÷ 4 = 5 km/h

The speed of the pedestrian BC is 5 km/h

In line CD:

1. Δd = 20 - 20 = 0 km

2. Δt = 6 - 4 = 2 hours

3. The speed = 0 ÷ 2 = 0 km/h

The speed of the pedestrian CD is 0 km/h

In line DE:

1. Δd = 20 - 0 = 20 km

2. Δt = 10 - 6 = 4 hours

3. The speed = 20 ÷ 4 = 5 km/h

The speed of the pedestrian DE is 5 km/h

B)

∵ He stop at t = 4 hours

∵ He arrived at point E at t = 10 hours

∵ 10 - 4 = 6 hours

He arrived E since the stop after 6 hours

C)

The speeds are represented by lines

The form of the equation of a line is f(x) = mx + c, where m represents

the slope of the line and c is the y-intercept (y when x = 0)

1. f(x) is d(t)

2. m is the speed

3. x is t

4. You can find c by substitute d and t by any point on the line

Line BC

Line BC has negative slope because d decreases when t increases

∵ m = -5 and c = 40

∴ d(t) = 40 - 5t

The formula for section BC is d(t) = 40 - 5t

Line CD

Line CD is a horizontal line (equation any horizontal line is y = c)

∴ m = 0 and c = 20

∴ d(t) = 20

The formula for section CD is d(t) = 20

Line DE

Line DE has negative slope because d decreases when t increases

∵ m = -5

∴ d(t) = -5t + c

To find c substitute the coordinates of point D in the equation

∵ The coordinates of point D are (6 , 20)

∴ 20 = -5(6) + c

∴ 20 = -30 + c

Add 30 to both sides

∴ c = 50

∴ d(t) = 50 - 5t

The formula for section DE is d(t) = 50 - 5t

Carolyn is using the table to find 360% of 15. What values do X and Y represent in her table? Percent Total 100% 100% 100% 20% 2
asambeis [7]

Answer:   c

Step-by-step explanation:

Based on the percent breakdown of 360%.

100% 100% 100% 20%20%20%

15.       15.      15.    3.     3.     3.

100% is all of it, so 15. This is x.

20% of it would be calculated as 0.2 x 15 or 3. This is y.

We are given with
x1 = 20 min
s1 = 2 min

x2 = 30 min
s2 = 4 min

p = 0.9
Condition (x > 25)

We need to get the t-value between the two means and comparing it wit the t-value for the time of 25 minutes given that there is a 90% probability that the weather will be good. Simply use the t-test formula and use the t-test table to get the probability.

A ballasted roof is flat and covered with gravel to hold the roofing material in place. Adam plans to cover the roof in the diag
Yuri [45]

Answer:

Area = 2,031ft^2

Total weight of gravel on the roof = 24,372 pounds

Step-by-step Explanation:

The area Adams planned to cover with gravel can be divided into 3 rectangles as shown in the diagram attached.

We would have 3 rectangles. See the attachment below to check out how we arrive at the dimensions of the 3 rectangles.

Area of rectangle = L*W

Area to be covered by gravel = area of rectangle 1 + area of rectangle 2 + area of rectangle 3

Area to be covered with gravel = (30*17) + (13*9) + (52*27)

Area = (30*17) + (13*9) + (52*27) = 2,031ft^2

Total weight of gravel on the roof = 12 pounds per square foot multiplied by total area of the roof to be covered = 12 * 2031 = 24,372 pounds
