What is the equation for the line that passes through the points (0,5) (5,8)

1 answer:

7 0

The equation of a line is slope-intercept form which is y=mx+b. (0,5) is the y intercept so we know that b=5. To find the slope plug in the two points into y2-y1/x2-x1. 8 and 5 are the y’s so 8-5=3 over 5-0=5 so the final slope is 3/5. That makes the equation of the line y=3/5-5. Hope this helped!

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

To get the reasonable range of the situation, we will find the minimum value and maximum value of the calories that can be dressed.

The minimum occur at when x = 0

f(0) = 100(0) +50.

f(0) = 50

Hence the minimum value of the calorie is 50.

The maximum value occur at f'(x)

f'(x) = 100
