The linear equation in slope intercept form for population of Jose's town is y = 320x + 2400.

<u>Solution:</u>

Given, the population of Jose's town in 1995 was 2400 and the population in 2000 was 4000,  

Let x represent the number of years since 1995.  

We have to write a linear equation, in slope- intercept form, that represents this data.

Now, let the change in population per year be p.

Then, population in a year = population change per year \times number of years + population in 1995.

⇒population in a year = p\times x + population in 1995

⇒ population in a year = p \times x + 2400

Here we have an case that, population in 2000 is 4000  

Then, number of years since 1995 = 5  

So, 4000 = p \times 5 + 2400 ⇒ 5p = 4000 – 2400 ⇒ 5p = 1600 ⇒ p = 320

Then, our equation will be population in a year = 320x + 2400  

Considering the population in a year as y ⇒ y = 320x + 2400.

Hence, the linear equation in slope intercept form is y = 320x + 2400.

Answer:

cm3,m3 etc...

Step-by-step explanation:

SInce 3D objects are solids and are different than 2D measurements,we use the measurement Centimeters "Cubed".You may ask what do you multiply to get the volume of a solid?Well the way i was taught was Length * Width * Height.(Stars mean Multiplication)

e.g. Lets say you have a cube,the length is 3,width is 3,height is 4 this is how it looks like

V=L x W x H

=3 x 3 x 4

=36 cm3

That's how Volume is calculated
