Answer:
<u>Slope = 3</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
Slope is calculated as the "Rise/Run" of a straight line. The Rise is the change in the value of y, or the amount y changes per change in x. Run is the change in the x value. A line with a run of 3 and a rise of 9 is calculated as:
Rise/Run = 9/3 or 3
This means that the value of y will increase by 3 for every increase of 1 in the value of 3.
Slope in "m" in the slope-intercept form of a straight line equation: y = mx + b
The line y = 3x + 2 tells us the it has a slope of 3 and intercepts the y axis at x = 2.
Example points (y = 3x + 2)
(0,2)
(1,5)
(4,14)
Note that y changes by 12 when x changes by 4. Rise/Run = 12/4 or 3.
Answer:6/25
Step-by-step explanation:
Y varies inversely as x²
Y =k/x²
Y= 6, x = 30
Substitute the value of y and x
6 = k/30²
Make k the subject of the formula
k = 6/900
k =1/150
The equation connecting Y and x is
Y = x²/150
When x = 6
Y= 6²/150
Y= 36/150
Y= 6/25
Answer:
A.)
In 2 months, Rex is 6 pounds and in 8 months he's 9lbs (from 2 to 8 is 6 months). So I inferred that to get to 9lbs from 6lbs is to go 0.5 pounds more each month.
B.)
2 = 6
3 = 6.5
4 = 7
5 = 7.5
6 = 8
7 = 8.5
8 = 9
C.) I don't think I can create a linear model here. So I don't think its nessesary.
D.)
If Rex were to grow over the expected 6 months, it would be 45.
