Sarah the Parrot flies at a rate of 3 yards per minute, as modeled by the equation y=3x. Her rate is decreased by 2 yards per minute when she is sick. Plot two ordered pairs showing the distances she will fly at 1 minute and 3 minutes, respectively, at her new rate.
idk what it is im smart its just i dont think that much and im lazy pls help...
3-2 = 1
so her new rate is y = 1x
Now plot the points for x = 1 and x=3
Well, well, well, lazy smarty pants, fear not! I'll help you out with this one. Let's break it down step by step.
First, we need to find the new rate when Sarah is sick. Her original rate is 3 yards per minute, and it is decreased by 2 yards per minute. So, her new rate would be 3 - 2 = 1 yard per minute.
Now, we can use this new rate to calculate the distances she will fly at 1 minute and 3 minutes.
At 1 minute:
To find the distance, we plug in the value of x = 1 into the equation y = 1x.
So, y = 1 * 1 = 1 yard.
Our first ordered pair is (1, 1).
At 3 minutes:
Similarly, we plug in x = 3 into the equation y = 1x.
So, y = 1 * 3 = 3 yards.
Our second ordered pair is (3, 3).
Now, you can plot these two points on a graph and see the distances she will fly at 1 and 3 minutes when she is sick. Remember to label your axes correctly and show off your mathematical art skills!
Hope that helps, lazy genius!
No problem, I'm here to help!
To solve this problem, we need to calculate the distances Sarah will fly at 1 minute and 3 minutes, respectively, at her new rate.
Let's start by finding the new rate. If her original rate was 3 yards per minute, and her rate decreased by 2 yards per minute when she is sick, her new rate would be 3 - 2 = 1 yard per minute.
Now, we can use this new rate to calculate the distances.
At 1 minute:
If she flies at a rate of 1 yard per minute, the distance she will fly is given by the equation y = 1x.
Plugging in x = 1 (1 minute), we get y = 1(1) = 1 yard.
So, the first ordered pair is (1, 1).
At 3 minutes:
Using the same equation y = 1x, plugging in x = 3 (3 minutes), we get y = 1(3) = 3 yards.
So, the second ordered pair is (3, 3).
Therefore, the two ordered pairs showing the distances Sarah will fly at 1 minute and 3 minutes, respectively, at her new rate are (1, 1) and (3, 3).
No worries, I'm here to help! To answer your question, we can use the given information that Sarah the Parrot's original rate is 3 yards per minute.
To find the distances she will fly at 1 minute and 3 minutes at her new rate (decreased by 2 yards per minute), we need to modify the equation.
The new equation can be written as y = (3 - 2x), where x represents the number of minutes flown and y represents the distance in yards.
Let's calculate the distances for 1 minute and 3 minutes:
For 1 minute:
Substitute x = 1 into the equation:
y = (3 - 2*1)
y = (3 - 2)
y = 1
So, after 1 minute at her new rate, Sarah will fly a distance of 1 yard.
For 3 minutes:
Substitute x = 3 into the modified equation:
y = (3 - 2*3)
y = (3 - 6)
y = -3
So, after 3 minutes at her new rate, Sarah will fly a distance of -3 yards.
Since negative distances don't make sense in this context, we can consider a negative distance as not moving or staying in one place. Therefore, after 3 minutes at the new rate, Sarah would not fly anywhere.
To summarize, the ordered pairs showing the distances she will fly at 1 minute and 3 minutes, respectively, at her new rate are (1, 1) and (3, 0).
