Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
first you need to put the equation in y=mx+b form
y-3=(-1/2)(x+4)
y-3= (-1/2x)+4
y=-1/2x+1
then you just graph
the y intercept is 1 and the slope is -1/2 so it’s going to be a negative graph and it starts from 1 on the y axis
Answer:
2.875 mi
Step-by-step explanation:
A scale factor (SF) is the ratio of two corresponding lengths in similar figures.
SF = actual distance/map distance = 5.75 mi/2 in
or 1 in = 2.875 mi
On the map, the distance from the library to the park is 1 in, so the actual distance is 2.875 mi.
The best way is to check all answers. lets check answer A first.
Take the equation y > -3x +3 and substitute 2 for x and -5 for y.
(-5)> -3(2) + 3
-5 > -6 + 3
-5 > -3
we know this is not true so A is not the answer. because it is an invalid solution.
Lets check B
(-2)>-3(5) + 3
-2 > -15 +3
-2 > -12
we know this is true so it is a valid solution Now we have to check the other equation with the same point.
y> x +2
5> (-2)+2
5> 0
we know this is true so its a valid solution.
This means B the correct answer.
When you have a question that comes to no solution that means when you went to solve the problem they canceled out to 0.
