The equation for the flowing rate of aamir is as follows y  =  -12x  +360

<h3>What is an equation?</h3>

It is defined as the relation between two variables, if we plot the graph of the linear equation we will get a straight line.

First of all let's write the slope-intercept form of the equation of a line, which is:

y   =  mx  +  c

So we just need to find to solve this problem.

Moreover, this problem tells us that Amir drove from Jerusalem down to the lowest place on Earth, the Dead Sea, descending at a rate of 12 meters per minute. So this rate is the slope of the line, that is:

Negative slope because Amir is descending. So:

y    =  -   12x  +  b

To find, we need to use the information that tells us that he was at sea level after 30 minutes of driving, so this can be written as the point. Therefore, substituting this point into our equation:

y  =  -12x  +  b

0  =   -12(30)   +  b

b   =   360

Finally, the equation of Amir's altitude relative to sea level (in meters) and time (in minutes) is:

y  =  -12x  +360

Suppose that a household's monthly water bill (in dollars) is a linear function of the amount of water the household uses (in hu
dolphi86 [110]

Answer:

The monthly cost for 9 HCF is $38.54

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>The graph is missing; however, the question can still be solved</em>

Given

Slope = 1.55

When monthly cost = $47.84, Amount of water = 15 HCF

Required

Determine the monthly cost for 9 HCF

From the question, we understand that it is a linear function;

Linear functions are of the form

y = mx + b

Where y is the function of x and m is the slope

In this case; the function is the monthly water bill

and x is the amount of water

Solving for b

When monthly cost = $47.84, Amount of water = 15 HCF

The function is as follows;

47.84 = 1.55 * 15 + b

47.84 = 23.25 + b

Subtract 23.25 from both sides

47.84 - 23.25= 23.25 - 23.25 + b

24.59 = b

b = 24.59

Solving for the monthly cost for 9 HCF

Here, we have that

x = Amount\ of\ water = 9

m = Slope = 1.55

b = 24.59

Substitute these values in the linear function; y = mx + b

y = 1.55 * 9 + 24.59

y = 13.95 + 24.59

y = 38.54

<em>Hence, the monthly cost for 9 HCF is $38.54</em>
