Since we are given two ordered pairs or points, therefore we can use the point-slope formula to create the linear model.

 

The general equation is in the form of:

y = mx + b

where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept

 

The slope can be calculated as:

m = (y2 – y1) / (x2 – x1)

m = (12.4 – 14.2) / (2000 – 1990)

m = -0.18

 

SO:

y = -0.18x + b

 

Choosing any ordered pair to calculate for b:

12.4 = -0.18(2000) + b

b = 372.4

 

Hence,

y = -0.18x + 372.4

A plant measures 0.5 in. at the end of Week 1 and 14 in. at the end of Week 5. find the rate of change
CaHeK987 [17]
The change in growth was 14 - 0.5 = 13.5 inches.
Since it is over the course of 5 weeks, divide 13.5 by 5.
13.5/5 = 2.7
2.7 = 270%

The rate of change was 270%. Hope this helps!

a purse contains 25p coins and 50 p coins. the total amount in the purse is rs.25. if the number of 50 p coins is double the num
erica [24]
Let the total no. of 25 p coins be x
50p coins = 2x 

Value of 25 p coins ( in rupees) = 0.25*x =0.25x
Value of 50p coins ( in rupees) = 0.5*2x = x

0.25x+x = 25
1.25x =25
x = 25/1.25 = 20

no. if 25p coins = 20
and 50p coins = 2*20 = 40
