Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The straight line equation is:
y = m*x + b Where m is the slope of the line and b the intercept with y-axis, in our case y is the depth of the tank and x (time in lapsus of 3 hours).
The slope m = ( y₂ - y₁ ) / (x₂ - x₁)
We have point A ( 3 , 8 ) and point B ( 6 , 7 )
m = ( 6 - 3 ) / (7 - 8 ) m = -3
We see that each 3 hours time-depth decreases 1 in.
Then to find the depth at the beginning of x-axis
At noon 12 tank was 9 inches, three hours before at 9 in the morning the depth was 10 inches and:
9 in the morning 10
6 in the morning 11
3 in the midnight 12
12 in the night 13
Then 13 is the intercept with y-axis
then the equation is:
h = - 3*x + 13
Note x is time in lapsus of 3 hours
Answer: B
Step-by-step explanation: Explanatory means to explain, or provide information. Argumentative tries to prove a claim is correct
I hope this helps you! :)
Simplifying this, we get:
(x+4)(x-4) = 0
Now, to get 0, we can replace x for one of these things to make 0, so:
x can either be 4, or -4
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
On the first day, Ben (B) starts with 10 tubs and Winston (W) starts with 0 tubs.
After the first day, Ben sells 8 tubs per day while Winston sells 9 tubs per day.
Therefore we can write the following equation: (Where d = number of days)
B = 10 + 8d
W = 0 + 9d = 9d
We are told that eventually they will sell the same amount which means
B = W
This means we can say,
10 + 8d = 9d
If we subtract 8d from both sides we get
10 = d
Therefore it will take 10 days for them to sell the same amount of cookie dough.
