PLEASE HELP ME I WILL MEDAL AND FAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!! http://prntscr.com/5itkm6

OpenStudy (dtan5457):

well i would go with A. graph 1 passes through 3,12. the seconds are more than likely on the x axis. with the feet on the y axis. the ratio of the first graph is 1:4 3:12 satisfies that ratio.

OpenStudy (dtan5457):

but honestly that's more of an assumption. if the axis were switched, C could work too.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what do u think @One098

OpenStudy (anonymous):

anyone??

OpenStudy (one098):

@inkyvoyd

OpenStudy (dtan5457):

@Zale101

OpenStudy (inkyvoyd):

I need the grpahs

OpenStudy (anonymous):

look http://prntscr.com/5itkm6

OpenStudy (dtan5457):

without graphs there are two solutions for this..a and c.

OpenStudy (dtan5457):

logically c would be correct as seconds would go in x axis (how i would set up), but you don't know for sure

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so guys is it C

OpenStudy (dtan5457):

I would say so

OpenStudy (inkyvoyd):

that's not enough info. you'ev given us slope values but not intercepts, which is not enough information to determine the answer to the problem

OpenStudy (anonymous):

http://prntscr.com/5itnm3 is that enough that's my question

OpenStudy (inkyvoyd):

I really don't like this problem but it's probably the first choice

OpenStudy (anonymous):

guys all I need is the answer how hard can that be???

OpenStudy (radar):

What are you studying, dependent vs independent functions?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yeah why

OpenStudy (inkyvoyd):

the problem is referring to a "rate" which is reallya sking you to calculate the slope of this line, and assume that it crosses through the origin (y intercept of zero). with the formulaic definition delta y/delta x, you can determine that for the first line you have 20/5=4 is the slope and fo rthe second one 18/3=6 is the slope. So your eqwuation has to be y=4x for the first line, and y=6x for the second line. Well, substituting those points in for corresponding lines only yields the first answer being correct.

OpenStudy (radar):

I would assume the x axis represents seconds and the y axis represents distance.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so c or a???

OpenStudy (inkyvoyd):

I told you what I believed to be the answer. If all you're after is answers, you're already going agains tthe spirit of thigns. Nevertheless I've presented both my answer and my justification.

OpenStudy (radar):

With that assumption, then I would go with A, but you know what they say about assumptions.

OpenStudy (inkyvoyd):

radar, we're made arses of ourselves, helping out this kid that only wants the answer

OpenStudy (anonymous):

k is A can someone help me with 2 more

OpenStudy (radar):

That is a true assumption lol.

OpenStudy (inkyvoyd):

@12pink12 , you'll learn to regret what you're doing righ tnow
