Answer:
C.) f(x) = −4x + 200
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the number is decreasing, you know the slope will be negative, eliminating the first two choices. The equation in the last choice does not match the given data, so it can be eliminated.
In other words, the easiest way to solve this problem is to check the answers against the given data.
_____
If you want to write the equation from scratch, you need to find the slope. That is ...
(change in number of cars)/(change in weeks) = (184 -192)/(4 -2) = -8/2 = -4
This matches only one answer, but you can go on to finish the equation by starting with point-slope form:
y -192 = -4(x -2)
y = -4x +8 +192 . . . . add 192, eliminate parentheses
y = -4x + 200 . . . . matches choice C.)
Answer:
81
Step-by-step explanation: 9 * 9 = -81 * -1 = 81
Answer:
300 centimeters
Step-by-step explanation:
1 meter is equal to 100 cm so 3 x 100 = 300
It beats 44 times in a minute
132 / 3 = 44
Answer:
smaller number is 10
larger number is 39
Step-by-step explanation:
a = small number
b = larger number
a + b = 49
2a = 3b - 97
substitute 49-a into second equation for b
2a = 3(49-a) - 97
2a = 147 - 3a - 97
5a = 50
a = 10
b = 39
