When given a problem in a real-world situation, how can you identify the slope and y-intercept?

1 answer:

7 0

The slope is how much something increases or decreases by at a constant rate, for example if johnny buys 3 oranges every time he goes to the store the slope would be 3. the y-intercept is how many things you start with so if johnny already had 5 oranges before he went to the store the y-intercept would be 5. the equation for that situation would by y=3x+5... 3x is the 3 oranges johnny buys each time he goes to the store (the slope) and 5 is how many oranges he started with before going to the store at all (y-intercept)

Suppose the box you want to ship has a square base (meaning that the dimensions of the bottom of the box are equal). If you choo

JulsSmile [24]

Answer:

24 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

When dealing with 3-Dimensional objects such as a box, the depth of that object refers to the distance between the highest and lowest points of that object. Therefore since it the question it states that the length, width and depth is 24 inches. Then the height of the box (as well as maximum height) would be a total of 24 inches. This would be in the case that the entire box was cubed, if the box is triangular with a square base then this height would be shorter as all the points would meet in a shorter position.

In 20 seconds, a roller coaster goes up a 100-meter hill, then down 72 meters, and then back up a 48-meter rise. What integer re

Finger [1]

The question is an illustration of arithmetic operations.

The integer that represents the vertical rise is 76

<em>Upward movements are represented with positive, while downward movements are represented with negative.</em>

<em />

So, the given parameters are:

$Up = 100m$

$Down = -72m$

$Up= 48m$

The vertical rise is:

$Rise = Up_1 + Down + Up_2$

So, we have:

$Rise = 100m -72m +48m$

$Rise = 76m$

Hence, the integer that represents the vertical rise is 76

Artyom0805 [142]

$\sqrt{3x+1} = 4$
First, square both sides (d.) leaving 3x + 1 = 16
Second, subtract 1 from both sides (a.) leaving 3x = 15
Third, divide by 3 from both sides (e.) leaving x = 5

Find the slope of each line.

Arisa [49]

Answer:

(X1,Y1)=(8,4)

(X2,Y2)=(1,2)

m=(Y2-Y1)/(X2-X1)

m=(2-4)/1-8)= -2/-7
