- The following data show the relationship between the speed of a car and the required braking distance al that speed for an automobile in dry weather. Create the following scatterplots: Use a blue-colored pencil to plot speed vs. braking distance. Label the axes. Use a green-colored pencil to plot braking distance vs. speed. Label the axes. Braking Distance 27 44 63 85 109 135 164 195 229 265 303 (feet) Speed (mph) 10 15 20 25 30 35 40 45 50 55 60 300 300 250 250 200 200 150 150 100 100 50 50 50 100 150 200 250 300 50 100 150 200 250 300 1. What types of functions could be represented by your scatterplot? 2. How are they alike? How are they different? Communicating About Mathematics If you are traveling at 47 mph, what is the approximate braking distance?arrow_forwardUse properties of exponents to simplify the expression. Express the answer in exponential form with positive exponents only. (x6 • x³)-2 ..... (x6 •x³) - 2 =| |(Simplify your answer. Use positive exponents only.)arrow_forwardWrite an exponential function for each set of points. (0,1024), (1,256), (2,64), (3,16) and (4,4) a b C d f(x) -(1024)* (x) = 1024 (1) f(x) = 1024(4)*+¹ f(x) = 4(1024)*+1arrow_forward
