Answer:
1. the plants grew 50%
2. if the plants grew to be 8 inches instead of 9 the they would have grown 33% which is less than 50%
3. 100% increase
Step-by-step explanation:
See image for steps
You lay out the triangle formula for area which would be A=(1/2)(b)(h)
plug in for variables
375=(1/2)(23.8)(b)
solve for b
The answer is y = -7x
Expalnation
Two points on the table are (0,0) and (1,-7)
Change in y = -7-0 = -7
Change in x = 1-0 = 1
Slope m of the function = -7/1= -7
Using y= mx + c
Picking point (0,0), x = 0, y = 0
y = mx + c becomes
0 = -7(0) + c
0 = 0 + c
c= 0
Hence, the equation is y = -7x + 0
which is y = -7x
Option b is the correct answer
<h3>
Answer: -2/3</h3>
==================================================
Explanation:
Use the slope formula to find the slope of line E
m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
m = (10-8)/(4-7)
m = 2/(-3)
m = -2/3
The slope of line E is -2/3
The slope of line F is also -2/3 since parallel lines have equal slopes but different y intercepts.
