Awesome12 Can you briefly explain how will we do this on the graph? the left part pf the equation is the graph's eqn.
first..u need 2 find d equation 10-5x by substituting d x n y values n draw d straight line aftr plottin 3 points..aftr dt u c wr d 2 equation lines meet each odr n dts d answer...dr cud b mor dn 1 ansr..hop dis ans helped u!

but its only for one mark. plus, i guess the eqn would be y=10-5x?

See calculate the frequency density for 60-80
It is 0.7
However on the histogram, they have made it 2.8
thus the ratio is
0.7 : 2.8

For example for the group 120-150
f.d = 32/30
= 1.0667

Thus on the histogram, it will be

0.7 : 2.8
1.0667: x

Cross multiply and find x. Do this for the other values
y cant we simply find using d ratio of freq:height?

Firstly, xy=5cm2, therefore y=5/x .
Then, Y(x+2)=6, so Y=6/(x+2).

According to that, y+Y=1 will become (5/x) + (6/(x+2)) = 1.

After that taking the LCM of the fractions, we will get (5x+10+6x)/(x^2 + 2x) =1

Simplifying that, (11x + 10)/(x^2 + 2x) = 1.

Take the denominator over to the other side, making 11x + 10 = x^2 + 2x

Move everything over to the other side: x^2 + 2x - 11x -10 = 0

Upon simplifying, you will finally get x^2 -9x -10 = 0

Hope I helped!

ita act. simple..first u need 2 substitue 2 values for n..4 example 2 and 3 dn u wud get a imultaneousequation..nw u cn easily find a and b.
a x 2cube+b x 2cube+ 2/6=5 and a x 3cube+b x 3cube+ 3/6=14..so nw simplify it n sove the equation..:)..i hope u got it
y a i got...thanx loadz

You use the scale factor formula so :

k= distance 1/ distance 2

k=6/4

k= 1.5

k = total distance 1 / total distance 2

you need to find distance 2, so

total distance 2 = total distance 1/ k

total distance 2 = 18.9/ 1.5

total distance 2= 12.6 km

OR
You could use the cosine rule to find the third unknown length of the triangle and then adding all the sides together to find the total distance walked.

a^2 = b^2 + c^2 - 2bccosA

LOL I'm kinda lazy so I'l just tell you to do the rest yourself :)
