help ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what do you need help with

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@soprano.h.d0816 can u help ? some are just checking my work some are actual help

OpenStudy (soprano.h.d0816):

Sure hun<33

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok then O.o

OpenStudy (soprano.h.d0816):

@bayan143 you can help also(((:

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (jdoe0001):

post and post specirics, so we can all see it is better to post anew each time, since it means more eyes

OpenStudy (soprano.h.d0816):

@TheSmartOne @Study312

OpenStudy (anonymous):

do u get this one @soprano.h.d0816

OpenStudy (study312):

sorry I gtg

OpenStudy (anonymous):

aghhhh :(

OpenStudy (soprano.h.d0816):

I don't... I'm not good with the parts

OpenStudy (anonymous):

and my teacher isn't answering either

OpenStudy (study312):

well the rate of change is 21 รท 3 = 7 so everything is 7 if you divide price by count.

OpenStudy (study312):

7 is rate of change

OpenStudy (agent0smith):

For the current year - find the slope of the graph - rise over run.

OpenStudy (agent0smith):

The rate of change is the same thing as the slope of the graph.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So rate of change/slope is 7 now what else do we need

OpenStudy (study312):

I guess find the rate of change of the current year

OpenStudy (agent0smith):

The slope isn't 7 for the current year, that is for the previous year. The rise is 24, the run is 3: your slope of the graph (current year) is 24/3 = ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

8 ?

OpenStudy (agent0smith):

Yes. So current year slope is $8 per bushel of corn. Previous year is $7 per bushel of corn.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

is this good ?

OpenStudy (agent0smith):

See my last post. Part b is wrong.

OpenStudy (agent0smith):

For part b you need to compare the slopes I gave.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh sorry so it would be $8 - $7= $1 so it costs $1 more now than last year.

OpenStudy (agent0smith):

Yep.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yay! can u help me with one more question ?

OpenStudy (soprano.h.d0816):

Great job Hun<3333

OpenStudy (soprano.h.d0816):

And I can try and help on this one, hopefully(; lol

OpenStudy (anonymous):

tysm @soprano.h.d0816

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (soprano.h.d0816):

Oh. That's the one I was getting stuck on. Let me try this again

OpenStudy (agent0smith):

They'll be similar triangles since they'll have the same ratio of the sides. The rise/run for each triangle will be the same.

OpenStudy (soprano.h.d0816):

I know the slop is 2.

OpenStudy (soprano.h.d0816):

Slope**

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I still dont get it tho @agent0smith

OpenStudy (agent0smith):

The slope would be 2 but the y-axis has a different scale. From C to B, the rise is 110-66, and the run is 1 - so find rise/run.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i dont understand this whatsoever

OpenStudy (agent0smith):

Try drawing the triangles on there.

OpenStudy (agent0smith):

This isn't any different to the last question, by the way. Same thing with different numbers.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i am so sorry i really dont understand it

OpenStudy (agent0smith):

Point C is at a y-value of 66. Point B is at a y-value of 110. So the rise is 110-66.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so whats next

OpenStudy (agent0smith):

Point C is at an x-value of 0, and point B is at an x-value of 1. So the run is 1-0. Now divide the rise by the run.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So divide 110/1 and 66/0 ? ? ? ?

OpenStudy (agent0smith):

The rise is 110-66 = ? (you have to work out what that is) The run is 1-0 = ? (work out what that is) Then divide the rise by the run.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

110-66=44 1-0=1

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so 44/1 ???? im so confused

OpenStudy (agent0smith):

Yes.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OK now what

OpenStudy (agent0smith):

That's the slope. It represents 44m of distance for every 1 minute

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so that goes in pt b

OpenStudy (agent0smith):

The initial value of the graph is where the graph starts, at 66m. So that's the sharks initial distance.

OpenStudy (agent0smith):

Part A's answer I posted earlier: "They'll be similar triangles since they'll have the same ratio of the sides. The rise/run for each triangle will be the same."

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

is that good ^

OpenStudy (soprano.h.d0816):

I think that is really good(:

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok i have 2 that i already did but just need someone to check can u check them ?

OpenStudy (soprano.h.d0816):

Sure(:

OpenStudy (agent0smith):

You should include the units too: 66m and 44m/min.

OpenStudy (agent0smith):

Okay, but I'm leaving pretty soon

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (soprano.h.d0816):

The first one is good.(:

OpenStudy (soprano.h.d0816):

And the second one is good(:

OpenStudy (agent0smith):

Those look fine.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok tysm guys <33

OpenStudy (soprano.h.d0816):

No problem hun<333
