Ulissa is running a 10-kilometer race at a constant pace. after running for 18 minutes, she completes 2 kilometers. after running for 54 minutes, she completes 6 kilometers. her trainer writes an equation letting t, the time in minutes, represent the independent variable and k, the number of kilometers, represent the dependent variable. which equation can be used to represent k, the number of kilometers julissa runs in t minutes? k – 2 = k minus 2 equals startfraction 1 over 9 left-parenthesis t minus 18 right-parenthesis.(t – 18) k – 18 = k minus 18 equals startfraction 1 over 9 left-parenthesis t minus 2 right-parenthesis.(t – 2) k – 2 = 9(t – 18) k – 18 = 9(t – 2)

$\displaystyle k - 2 = \frac{1}{9}\, (t -2 )$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

Note that Ulissa is running at a constant pace. This problem is very similar to finding the equation for a line on an - plane given two points on that line. In this case, time (in minutes) acts as the dependent variable and acts as, . Distance acts as the dependent variable, .

Start by finding the slope of that line: given two points on that line $\left(x_0, y_0\right)$ and $\left(x_1, y_1\right)$ , the slope of that line would be equal to

$\displaystyle \frac{y_1 - y_0}{x_1 - x_0}$ .

In this case, the variables are different but the formula shall still apply. Note that the dependent variable is on the numerator while the independent variable is on the denominator. Apply the formula to find slope:

$\displaystyle \frac{6 - 2}{54 - 18} = \dfrac{1}{9}$ .

Apply the slope-point form to any point on the line to obtain the line's equation. Note that this problem provided two points. They will produce two equivalent equations.

The slope-point form of a line with slope and a point (x_0, y_0) will be:

$y - y_0 = m \, \left(x - x_0\right)$ .

In this question, applying the formula to the point (18, 2) will give the equation:

$\displaystyle k - 2 = \frac{1}{9}\, (t - 18)$ .

Similarly, applying the formula to the point (54, 6) will give the equation:

$\displaystyle k - 6 = \frac{1}{9}\, (t - 54)$ .

Answer from: Quest

let f (x ) is a function and c be a positive real number, the graph of the function g (x ) = f (cx ) is represented as follows.

when, c > 1, the function compresses it in the x - direction.

when, 0 < c < 1, the function stretches it.

the function is g ( x ) = (9x )2.

the heighest power of x in g ( x ) = (9x )2 is 2, so the parent function is square function.

the equation of parent function is f ( x ) = x 2 .

the function is g ( x ) = (9x )2 and the parent function is f ( x ) = x 2 .

so, the functions f and g have the following relationship.

g ( x ) = f ( 9x ).

compare the function g ( x ) = f ( 9x ) with g (x ) = f (cx ).

c = 9 ( > 1 ).

so, the function g (x ) = (9x )2 compresses it in the x - direction.

Abucket of paint has spilled on a tile floor. the paint flow can be expressed with the function p(t) = 6(t), where t represents time in minutes and p represents how far the paint is spreading. the flowing paint is creating a circular pattern on the tile. the area of the pattern can be expressed as a(p) = 3.14(p)^2 part a: find the area of the circle of spilled paint as a function of time, or a[p(t)]. show your work. part b: how large is the area of spilled paint after 8 minutes? you may use 3.14 to approximate pi in this problem.
