Question

WILL MEDAL!! SOME ONE HELP PLEASE?!

Answer 1

Don and Jacob want to know who reads more pages per hour. Don keeps track of the number of pages he reads in a graph, and Jacob keeps track of how many pages he reads in a table. How many pages per hour does each boy read, and who reads at a faster rate? Don: pages per hour Jacob: pages per hour The person who reads faster is: (Type D for Don or J for Jacob)

Answer 2

How many pages per hour does each boy read, and who reads at a faster rate?

Answer 3

Jacob’s Reading Log
Time (h) 2 3.5 5 7
Pages read 42 73.5 105 147

Answer 5

Calculate the slope using 2 points on the table
the graph is not showing

Answer 6

^
Couldnt have said it better.

Answer 7

calculate the slope of the line using 2 points, calculate the slope of the table using 2 points, compare the two numbers

Answer 8

how do i do that?

Answer 9

\[m = slope = \frac{ y - y1 }{ x-x1 }\]

for 2 points (x,y) and (x1,y1)

Answer 10

alright, then what?

Answer 11

That value, the slope, is the rate of reading in pages per hour

Answer 12

oh ok,

Answer 13

so who reads the fastest?

Answer 14

the one with the greater value for the slope, you have to calculate it

Answer 15

I will do the table:

Answer 16

2 points
(2, 42) and (3.5, 73.5)

\[m = \frac{ y - y1 }{ x-x1 } = \frac{ 73.5-42 }{ 3.5-2 } = \frac{ 31.5 }{ 1.5 } = \frac{ 21~pages }{ 1~hour }\]

Answer 17

Do the same using 2 points from the graph

Answer 18

kk

Answer 19

D (Don) = 18 pages/hour

Answer 20

right

Answer 21

so Jacob reads faster than don?

Answer 22

yes

Answer 23

ty you much

Answer 24

WHAT DAFUQ?! WHAT'S JACOB'S @DanJS

Answer 25

Summary for peeps looking for answers:
