Y=mx+b
m=slope
b=yint

two points
cost=y
(4,5.5) and (7,7.75)
slope=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
slope=(7.75-5.5)/(7-4)=2.25/3=0.75

y=0.75x+b
find b
(4,5.5)
x=4
y=5.5
5.5=0.75(4)+b
5.5=3+b
minus 3 fromboth sides
2.5=b

y=0.75x+2.5
3 hours
y=0.75(3)+2.5
y=2.25+2.5
y=4.75

answer is D

Slope = (7.75 - 5.50)/(7 - 4) = 2.25/3 = 0.75
The equation described by the function is
y - 5.5 = 0.75(x - 4)
y = 0.75x - 3 + 5.5 = 0.75x + 2.5
For x = 3, y = 0.75(3) + 2.5 = 2.25 + 2.5 = 4.75
Therefore, it costs $4.75 to park for 3 hours.

A ride at an amusement park moves the riders in a circle at a rate of 6.0 m/s. The radius of the ride is 9.0 meters. Which of th
lana [24]

Answer with explanation:

It is given that , ride at an amusement park moves the riders in a circle at a rate of 6.0 m/s.

a=\frac{dv}{dt}=6 m/s

Radius of Circle = 9.0 meters

Acceleration is rate of change of velocity,which will be perpendicular to radius vector.

Also, in terms of mathematics, line from center that is radius , to point of contact that is tangent line ,which is on the circle are perpendicular to each another.

→r(radius vector) ⊥  a(Acceleration vector).

So, In option A, Radius vector is Perpendicular to acceleration of riders.

rosijanka [135]
<span>If we were to put this in terms of a venn diagram, we would have 360 owning only brand X, 500 owning only brand Y, and 80 in between, owning both. Therefore, 80 out of the 580 owners of brand Y may have X as well, which we put into fraction form 80/580, and reduce to 4/29.

The answer is the fourth choice 4/29.


I hope my answer has come to your help. God bless and have a nice day ahead!
