Question

a bunny hop is a bike trick in which the rider brings both tires off the ground without using a ramp. the table shows the height y (in inches) 10.2, 9.8, 9.4 of a bunny hop on a bike that weighs x pounds 19, 21, 23 a) graph the data then describe the pattern b) write a linear function that relates the height of a bunny hop to weight of the bike c) what is the height of a bunny hop on a bike that weighs 21.5 pounds?​

Answer 1

9.7 inches

​

.

Explanation:

From the table, the linear function must pass through the points (19,10.2) and (21,9.8). Use the slope formula to find the slope between these two points:

m amp;=

y2−y1

x2−x1

amp; amp;Slope formula. amp;=

9.8−10.2

21−19

amp; amp;Substitute. amp;=

−0.4

2

amp; amp;Subtract. amp;=−0.2 amp; amp;Divide.
