Answer:

Slope=2.2/5.5 or 0.4

Step-by-step explanation:

slope = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

Hence:

slope=(4.4-2.2)/(11-5.5)

slope=2.2/5.5=0.4

A spherical balloon is inflating with helium at a rate of 64 pi StartFraction ft cubed Over min EndFraction . How fast is the b

olga2289 [7]

Answer:

The radius of the balloon is increasing at a rate of 4 feet per minute.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

$\dfrac{dV}{dt} = 64\pi \dfrac{\text{ ft}^3}{\text{min}}$

Volume of sphere is given by

$V = \dfrac{4}{3}\pi r^3$

where r is the radius of the balloon.

Instant radius, r = 2 ft

Rate of change of volume =

$\dfrac{dV}{dt} = \dfrac{d}{dt}(\dfrac{4}{3}\pi r^3)\\\\\dfrac{dV}{dt} =4\pi r^2\dfrac{dr}{dt}$

Putting values, we get,

$64\pi = 4\pi (2)^2\dfrac{dr}{dt}\\\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{dr}{dt} = 4$

Thus, the radius of the balloon is increasing at a rate of 4 feet per minute.

Find the equation of the line given the slope and the y-intercept

GREYUIT [131]

Answer:

y = $\frac{1}{2}x + 3$

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation for a linear graph is usually written in the following format...

y = mx + b

Where m would be the slope, usually referring to rise over run and b would be the y-intercept (where the line crosses the y-axis). From the graph, we can see that the line crosses the y-axis at point 3 so b would be 3. The graph also shows us that for every 1 value that the line rises it moves to the right 2 values. Therefore, the slope would be 1/2. Using these values we can create the following equation...

y = $\frac{1}{2}x + 3$
