Question

Becky is competing in an 8-mi road race. She runs at a constant speed of 6 mi/h. Write an in slope-intercept form to represent the distance Becky has left to run.

hintHint:

The equation to find the distance is text  dis  end text tan invisible function application c e equals text  speed  end text cross times text  time  end text. The slope intercept form of a line is y equals m x plus c, where m is the slope and c is the y-intercept.
We are asked to find the slope intercept equation to represent the distance Becky has left to run.

The correct answer is: Hence, the remaining distance to be covered is: Total distance –distance covered


    Step 1 of 2:
    Let x be the time and y be the distance that Becky has to cover. It is given that she runs at a constant speed of 6mi/hr.
    The distance covered by here in x hours is:d equals 6 x
    Step 2 of 2:
    When time x=0, that is during the start of the race, the distance for her to cover is 8mi. That is the, the y-intercept is, .
    Hence, the remaining distance to be covered is: Total distance –distance covered
    That is:
    y equals 8 minus 6 x

    Once you get the equation, you could possibly predict the trajectory of the distance Becky would have to run at a particular time and vice versa.
    y equals negative 6 x plus 8

    A Basketball coach is considering three players for most valuable player . The table shows the proportion of shots each player made of the shots they attempted.


    a) For a technical foul , the team can pick any player they want to shoot the free throw. Which player should the team pick ?
    b) Which player is most successful with their field goal shots? Explain.
    c) Rank the players by the percentage of the 3- point shots each made .
    d) If all the players attempted the same number of shots , which player would you choose as the most valuable player? Justify your answer.

    In this question, it can be explained further:
    A. Kimberly: 0.857 > 4/5 > 71%
    Here, Kimberly's free throws have the highest proportion.
    B. Martin: 49.5% > 9/20 > 0.448
    Here, Martin's proportion of field goals is the highest.
    C. Corey: 0.338 > 1/3 > 32%
    Kimberly > Corey > Martin
    From the above explanation, we can conclude Kimberly is first, Corey is second, and Martin is third.
    I'd go with Kimberly because he has a higher percentage on all shots than the other two players.

    Adam wraps the top edge of the gift box shown with gold ribbon. The top and bottom edges of the box are square. If Adam has 24 . 25 cm. of gold ribbon , does he have enough to decorate the top of the box ?

    The volume formula is a mathematical expression that can be used to calculate the total amount of space (vacuum) occupied by any three-dimensional object.
    The volume of an object is the amount of three-dimensional space occupied by the object or shape. It is typically measured in cubic units. In other words, the volume of any object or container is its ability to hold the amount of fluid (gas or liquid). Using arithmetic formulas, the volume of three-dimensional mathematical shapes such as the cube, cuboid, cylinder, prism, and cone, among others, can be easily calculated.
    Cuboid Formula
    V = l × w × h
    l represent Length
    w represent Width
    h represent Height
