Question

(GIVE MEDAL AND FAN) HELP!!!
The table below represents the displacement of a turtle from its nest as a function of time:


Time
(hours)
x Displacement
from nest
(miles)
y
0 5
1 27
2 49
3 71
4 93

Answer 1

Part A: What is the y-intercept of the function, and what does this tell you about the turtle? (4 points)

Part B: Calculate the average rate of change of the function represented by the table between x = 1 to x = 4 hours, and tell what the average rate represents. (4 points)

Part C: What would be the domain of the function if the turtle continued to walk at this rate until it traveled 225 miles from the nest? (2 points)

Answer 2

Answer 3

a)the y intercept of a function is the point where x=0
b) find the equation of the function
c) find the point where y=225

Answer 4

y=22x+5

225=22x+5
22x=220
x=10

so c is 0<=x<=10

Answer 5

A) The y-intercept tells you that at 0 hours the turtle was 5 miles away from the nest.

Answer 6

b and c are incorrect

Answer 7

for b, use http://www.mesacc.edu/~marfv02121/readings/average/average_defn.jpg

Answer 8

a by whoever the other person is is also wrong @EmilyF03

Answer 9

so what its the correct answer, because im confuse now? @DaBest21

Answer 10

rofl what are you talking about? I didn't give an answer for a

Answer 11

I told her how to find the y intercept

Answer 12

@DaBest21 ???

Answer 13

i just noticed that sososososo sorry ;''(

Answer 14

@ganeshie8 ????

Answer 15

@marihelenh ???

Answer 16

Answer 17

i dint understand the explanation

Answer 18

she/hes right but i can still help

Answer 19

ok so at what data set is x=0
