Answer: <span>y - 37.5 = 2.5 ( x - 7)

Explanation:

1) The point-slope form is has this form:

 y - y1 = m (x - x1)

Where m is the slope or rate of change and x1, y1 are the coordinates of the point.

2) you are told that the the rate of change of water (m) is 2.5

m = 2.5

3) The point is given by that after 7 min the rain barrel contains 37.5 gallons. This is:

x1 = 7
y1 = 37.5

</span>4) Replace those value in the point-slope model:

y - 37.5 = 2.5 ( x - 7)

That is the point-slope model or equation.

loris [4]
Cool! So OK I'll take you through it.
You just need to take everything 1 step at a time, as you might already know.

First
3 to the second is 9

Second
The first part included like this 9*(3 to the third) which is 243

Third
The second part is included into the question like 243*(3 to the fourth) which is 243*81

Fourth
243*81 = 19,683

Your Answer
(3^2)*(3^3)*3^4) = 19,693

Hope That Helps and Correct Me If I'm Wrong!

the vet charges $45 for an office visit and $10 for each vaccination your dog needs. write an eaquation
ser-zykov [4K]

Answer:

45+10x = y

Step-by-step explanation:

$45 -- stays the same no matter what so that's constant.

$10 -- this varies dependent on the number of vaccinations your dog needs, so you'd use a variable to represent the number of vaccinations (in this case I'm using variable "x").

So, for example if your dog needed 7 vaccinations, it would be: 45+10(7) = y -- answer being $115.
