Step 8: Fill In the blank. What is the slope of the kangaroo's line? K=30h+80. Start is 80 1 hour is 110 2 hour is 140 3 hour is 170 4 hour is 200 5 hour is 230. Miles is 0, 50, 100, 150, 200, 250 and 300. For the start it shows 0 than 1, and 2, then 3, and 4, and 5 hours.
Animal Speed (mph)
Step 3: Fill in the blank. Distance equals rate times _____.
Cheetah 70
Lion 50
Coyote 43
Rabbit 35
Kangaroo 30
Squirrel 12
Chicken 9
Antelope 61
Elk 45
Ostrich 40
giraffe 32
elephant 25
Pig 11
Mouse 8
K=30h+80
this is just like the slope-intercept form for a line
y = mx+b
where m is the slope.
so, K's slope is 30
rate * time = mi/hr * hr = mi
that is, rate * time = distance
Hey oobleck thank you for helping I appreciate you big time and for you taking your time to help me on the question I was having trouble on
Sorry, I forgot to mension I also Need help on Question 3 the second I tried looking it up cause I was confused and ask my teachers what to do but I was still confused but you helped me on the first question I apprectiate you but the second is the one that is super hard.
I mean Step 3 which is Question 3 sorry your the best for helping thanks teacher! :D
To find the slope of the kangaroo's line, we need to first identify two points on the line. In this case, we can use the first and last points provided.
The given data shows the time (in hours) and the corresponding distance (in miles). From the information given, the start time is 0 hours, and the corresponding distance is 0 miles. The final time is 5 hours, and the corresponding distance is 300 miles.
Now, we can calculate the slope using the formula: slope = (change in y) / (change in x). In this case, y represents the distance (in miles) and x represents the time (in hours).
So, the change in y is 300 - 0 = 300 miles, and the change in x is 5 - 0 = 5 hours.
Therefore, the slope of the kangaroo's line can be calculated as:
slope = (change in y) / (change in x) = 300 miles / 5 hours = 60 miles per hour.
Hence, the slope of the kangaroo's line is 60 miles per hour.
