For part A, The answer is that the car gets better gas mileage. We can see it from the graph that the number of gallons used is on the X axis, and the distance traveled using those number of gallons is on the Y axis. The easiest way to compare would be to look at the 1 gallon of gas. You can see that you can travel 25 miles on 1 gallon of gas. The truck on the other hand will get you 18 miles per gallon. Imagine putting 1 in for X, the Y value would be 18 if you did this. The graph just shows us a visual way of saying the same thing. To determine how much farther the car with a girl on 8 gallons of gas, you would just multiply 8 by 25 for the number of miles traveled by the car. You would multiply 8 by 18 to find the number of miles traveled for the truck. The answers are 200 miles for the car and 144 miles for the truck. 200-144=56 miles farther for the car.
10. 8x+4y=4. y=mx+b
-8x. -8x
4y=-8x+4
÷4. ÷4. ÷4
y = -2x +1
slope = -2. y-int= 1
11. slope is changing y over changing x
m = (y2 -y1)/(x2-x1) (0,-1) x1 = 0, y1=-1
(-4-(-1))/(-2-0) (-2,-4) x2 = -2, y2 = -4
(-4 + 1) / (-2)
-3/-2 = 3/2 answer is 3/2
12. b because negative cause it flip in x axis and it become flatter because of the fraction.
13. 2y =8-8x
÷2. ÷2 ÷2
y = 4 - 4x
Answer A
14. B
(a+5)(a+2) = a^2 + 7a + 10
look at what adds to make 7 and multiplies to make 10
as you know one is 5, the other is 2 and 5 + 2 = 7 so both positive
(a+2)
