Concept explainers
To form an equation for the line.
Answer to Problem 3.5.3P
Equation of planned line is,
Equation of actual line is,
Explanation of Solution
Given information:
Graph for P’s actual and planned ride home
For the planned ride (f(x)) line, x- intercept is (2, 0)
y- intercept is (0, 23)
For the actual ride (g(x)) line, x- intercept is (2.8, 0)
y- intercept is (0, 23)
Graph:
Blue line represents f(x) and green line represents g(x)
Formula used: Slope is,
Equation of line is,
Calculation:
For planned ride f(x)),
For slope substituting the values in slope formula,
So,
On solving,
For the equation of line, substituting the values,
For actual ride g(x)),
For slope substituting the values in slope formula,
So,
On solving,
For the equation of line, substituting the values,
