An equation representing lyle’s hedge-trimming business is a = 12n - 300 where a is the amount of profit or loss in dollars and n is the number of hedges trimmed. how would the graph of lyle’s business change if the equation a = 10n - 300 represented his business? the graph would be flatter. the graph would be steeper. the graph would start closer to the origin. the graph would start lower on the y-axis.

For this option, you will work individually. the pythagorean theorem can be used in many real-world scenarios. part 1 write your own real-world scenario where the pythagorean theorem can be applied to find a missing piece. you may choose to write a problem that is two- or three-dimensional in nature. be sure that you will be able to draw a diagram of your scenario. write out your problem and submit it for part 1. be sure to end your scenario with a question. part 2 draw a diagram of the scenario you created in part 1. you may draw by hand and scan and upload your drawing or create a computer-generated drawing for submission. be sure to label all parts and dimensions of the drawing. part 3 solve the question that you posed in part 1. show all of your steps in answering the question. for this option, you will need to submit all three parts for full credit—your real-world problem and question, the diagram that you created, and your work solving the problem, showing all steps. * note that your instructor is looking for your own original idea. while it is acceptable to use the internet for research and inspiration, academic integrity policies apply.

Airplane speeds are measured in three different ways: (1) indicated speed, (2) true speed, and (3) ground speed. the indicated airspeed is the airspeed given by an instrument called an airspeed indicator. a plane’s indicated airspeed is different from its true airspeed because the indicator is affected by temperature changes and different altitudes of air pressure. the true airspeed is the speed of the airplane relative to the wind. ground speed is the speed of the airplane relative to the ground. for example, a plane flying at a true airspeed of 150 knots into a headwind of 25 knots will have a ground speed of 125 knots. the problems below refer to static and dynamic pressure. static pressure is used when a body is in motion or at rest at a constant speed and direction. dynamic pressure is used when a body in motion changes speed or direction or both. a gauge compares these pressures, giving pilots an indicated airspeed. in problem #s 1 and 2, use the following information. the indicated airspeed s (in knots) of an airplane is given by an airspeed indicator that measures the difference p (in inches of mercury) between the static and dynamic pressures. the relationship between s and p can be modeled by s=136.4p√+4.5. 1. find the differential pressure when the indicated airspeed is 157 knots. 2. find the change in the differential pressure of an airplane that was traveling at 218 knots and slowed down to195 knots. in problem #s 3 and 4, use the following information. the true airspeed t (in knots) of an airplane can be modeled by t=(1+a50,000) ⋅ s, where a is the altitude (in feet) and s is the indicated airspeed (in knots). 3. write the equation for true airspeed t in terms of altitude and differential pressure p. 4. a plane is flying with a true airspeed of 280 knots at an altitude of 20,000 feet. estimate the differential pressure. explain why you think your estimate is correct.
