What function equation is represented by the graph?

KATRIN_1 [288]

Answer:

f(x) = -2.5x + 4

Step-by-step explanation:

If you go down 5 units and 2 units to the right then there is another point so the slope is -5/2 which is the same thing as -5 divided by 2. So it’s -2.5 as the slope and for the y- intercept, there is only one point on there and it is on 4. So the function is

f(x) = -2.5x + 4

mina [271]

Answer=6 pieces

First lets convert 3/4 to ?/8...

$\frac{3}{4}= \frac{6}{8}$

3/4 is equivalent to 6/8.

Now we can divide 6/8 by 1/8

$\frac{6}{8}/ \frac{1}{8}=6$
