Answer:
The ballon rose a distance of 37 1/2 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
Here, we are interested in calculating the level of ascent of the weather balloon.
From the question, we are told that the ballon made a transition from below the sea to above the sea.
Now to calculate the total distance, we shall
be adding the distances below the sea and the distances above;
Mathematically, that would be;
18 feet + 19 1/2 feet = 37 1/2 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
the delimiter line is going through the points (-4, 0) and (0, -4).
the line function
y = mx + b
m is the slope of the line, b is the y-intercept (the y value when x = 0).
the slope is the ratio of "y coordinate change / x coordinate change" when going from one point to another.
so, for the 2 found points :
x changes by +4 (from -4 to 0)
y changes by -4 (from 0 to -4).
the slope m is then
-4/+4 = -1
and the y-intercept is -4 (as explained).
so, the line is
y = -x - 4
and the graphic says that all values greater than our equal to the line values are valid, so
y >= -x - 4
