The winning times (in seconds) in a speed-skating event for men can be represented by the 34) formula T = 46.01 - 0.097x, where x represents the year, with x = 0 corresponding to 1920. (For example in 1992, x would be 1992 - 1920 = 72.) According to the formula, what was the winning time in 1992? Round to the nearest hundredth.
Equations and Inequations
Equations and inequalities describe the relationship between two mathematical expressions.
Linear Functions
A linear function can just be a constant, or it can be the constant multiplied with the variable like x or y. If the variables are of the form, x2, x1/2 or y2 it is not linear. The exponent over the variables should always be 1.
