While chasing its prey, a cheetah is running slowly and then increases its speed by 50.6 miles per hour to reach a top speed of 70 miles per hour. What is the cheetah's initial speed? And what is the answer in miles per hour

The Cheetah's initial speed is 19.4 miles per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the Cheetah is initially running and then gradually increases its speed by 50.6 miles per hour to reach a top speed of 70 miles per hour, let the Cheetah's initial speed be u.

Also, let the increase in the Cheetah's speed be Δu and let v be the Cheetah's final speed.

Now, the final speed, v = initial speed, u + change in speed, Δu

So, v = u + Δu

So, the Cheetah's initial speed is u = v - Δu

Now, v = 70 mi/h and Δu = 50.6 mi/h

Substituting v and Δu into the equation, we have

u = v - Δu

u = 70 mi/h - 50.6 mi/h

u = 19.4 mi/h

So, the Cheetah's initial speed is 19.4 miles per hour

slope=1.5

Step-by-step explanation:

m= rise/run= y^2-y^1/x^2-x^1

m=6.20-3.50/4.8-3

m=2.7/1.8

m=1.5
