The linear function y = 1.2x represents Alberto’s speed, y, in meters per minute, when his stride rate is x steps per minute.Explain what the slope and y-intercept of the linear model represent in the context of the situation.

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

Answer with explanation:

The linear function is given by:

              y=1.2x

where y represents Alberto's speed in meters per minutes.

when his stride rate is x steps per minute.

We know that for any linear function of the type:

  y=mx+c

m represents the slope and c represents the y-intercept of the function.

  • Here m=1.2 and c=0

i.e. the slope represents the stride rate of Alberto i.e. the rate at which he is walking.

  • and the y-intercept represents the speed of Alberto when he took 0 steps i.e when x=0.

It represents that his speed is 0 meter per minutes when he did not took any step.

Answer 2
Answer: The slope is the rate in which he is moving and the y-intercept is where he started (at 0 seconds and 0 meters).

When a number is doubled and 5 is subtaracted from the result,the answer is 37.what is the number?

Answers

x is a number
x is doubled
then 5 is subtracted means
2 times x-5
2x-5
result is 37
2x-5=37
solve
add 5 to both sides
2x+5-5=37-5
2x+0=42
2x=42
divide both sides by 2
2/2x=42/2
1x=21
x=21

the number si 21
You need to work this question backwards.
If you know the answer is 37, you need to therefore, add 5 (because it says it has been subtracted in the question)
This will give you 42. 
Because the question then says this number has been doubled - you should halve it.
This will give you 21.
To check your answer, use this number, and do as the question shows you...
21 x 2 - 5. Does this equal 37? 
Yes, then you must be correct :)
