Question

If you know the number of yards for a measurement, you can change that measure to meters by multiplying the number of yards by 0.9144.

a. Write a function rule that relates meters to yards.





b. How many meters are equivalent to 7,200 yards? Round your answer to the nearest hundredth, if necessary.





c. How many yards are equivalent to 2,500 meters? Round your answer to the nearest hundredth, if necessary

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

A.) Metres = 0.9144 × yards

If we present metres by 'y' and yards by 'x' we have our function rule as

y=0.9144x

B.) When x = 7200,

y = 0.9144×7200 =6583.68 on rounding off to nearest hundred we can write

y = 6600 metres

C.) When y=2500, x= y/0.9144 = 2500/0.9144 = 2734.033 or

x = 2700 yards.
