If it is a triangle h is height and b is base.
this is a function becuase it passes the verticle line test (no 2 points are above each other).
To solve, set an equation:
First Number: x
Second Number: 2x
x+2x=36
3x=36
divide both sides by 3
x=13
First Number: (x) 12
Second Number: (2x) 24
Answers: 12 and 24
The answer would be C. We know that d is equal to the initial depth of a lake. The two given initial depths are 58 feet and 53 feet, so we know that one of the equations must be either d=58 or d=53. Because there only C has either one of those, d=58, we know that it must be the answer.
To find the other equation, it is just a linear function for the other lake. The y-intercept, or initial value, is 53, so in the equation y=mx+b, it is the b value. The slope, or m value, is 3 feet, so you have y=d=3x+53.
The answer is 6x+12. Have a GREAT day!!!! :)
