1. The two equations follow the slope-intercept form which y=mx + b. They have the same y-intercept which is equal to 900.
2. Suppose x= 10
Plan Alpha: y=-7x+900=-7(10)+900=830
Plan Foxtrot: y = -17x+900 = -17(10)+900=730
Between the 2 plans, the lower value is 730. Plan Foxtrot is better for reduction of pollution.
3. The city council should choose Plan Foxtrot because the reduction of pollution is much greater. Their goal would be reached faster if they go with faster reduction of pollution.

3

The mistake is in line 2, the parenthesis means multiplication therefore it has to be 3x
1 kg = 1000 g....so 2.5 kg = (2.5 * 1000) = 2500 grams
it cooks 30 minutes per 500 g.....2500/500 = 5...so there are 5 thirty minute periods ....(5 * 30) = 150 minutes....plus the extra 20 minutes....(150 + 20) = 170 minutes....so ur looking at 2 hrs 50 minutes cook time <=
