g(x) = x + 9
scores? Explain.
(b) Paul uses the function y = 8x + 40 to model the situation. What score does the model predict for 3 h
of homework?
(c) What does the number 40 in Part (b) mean in the context of the situation?
Answer:
We have been given the scatter plot:
(a)We can clearly see from the plot that there is direct proportion between the number of hours of homework and test scores.
Direct proportion means if hours of homework increases then test score increases and vice-versa.
(b) we have been given a function y=8x +40
We need to predict for 3 hours of homework put x=3 in above function as x represents hours of homework we get:
y=8(3)+40
y=24+40
y=64
Hence test score will be 64 for 3 hour of homework.
(c) 40 means the test score when there is x=0 means 0 hours o homework.
Answer:
The square of the scale
Step-by-step explanation:
Scaling
Suppose we know the scale of the distances, for example, r=5. It means that for each centimeter in the drawing, it corresponds to 5 cm in the real object being scaled. If we wanted to find the ratio of the areas, we would need to scale both dimensions and the ratio would be the square of the scale factor. In our example, the ratio of the areas would be 25, i.e. each square centimeter would correspond to 25 square centimeters
The rule for finding the ratio of the areas of two objects: The square of the scale
