alexdok [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

A linear function is a polynomial function of the first degree that has the form:

f (x) = m*x + b   or  y=m*x + b

where y is the dependent variable, x is the independent variable, m is the slope of the line and b is the intercept with the Y axis.

The slope m measures the inclination of the line with respect to the abscissa axis, that is, the x axis.  According to the value of the slope m, the linear function can be increasing if m> 0, decreasing if m <0 or constant if m = 0.

You know that the number of sea turtle deaths per year is modeled by f(x) = 13.42x + 109.118.   Then the value of the slope is 13.42. In this scenario, the slope indicates that the number of deaths of sea turtles grows in a proportion of 13.42 with respect to the pollution index of the bay.
