Answer:
Answer (a):
distance traveled per revolution = 1.5 feet
Answer (b):
slope = 1.5 feet per revolution
Explanation:
We have been given a graph which shows number of revolutions v/s distance traveled in feet.
Answer (a):
Now we need to find about how far does Miguel travel per revolution. That means find distance traveled in 1 revolution.
From graph we see that 10 revolution corresponds to 15 feet.
then 1 revolution = 15/10 = 1.5 feet
hence final answer is 1.5 feet.
Answer (b):
slope means [change in y-value] / [change in x-value]
From graph we see that 10 revolution corresponds to 15 feet.
then slope = 15/10 = 1.5 feet per revolution
