Slope = (10 - 5)/(-9 + 15) = 5/6
y = mx + b where m = slope and b = y-intercept
b = y - mx
b = 5 - (5/6) (-15)
b = 5 +12.5
b = 17.5
Equation y = 5/6 x + 17.5
Y-intercept = 17.5
X-intercept when y = 0
So
5/6 x + 17.5 = 0
5/6 x = -17.5
x = (-17.5) (6/5)
x = -21
Answer
Y intercept (0, 17.5 )
X intercept (-21 , 0)
348 /15 = 23.2 miles per gallon
232 miles/ 23.2 miles per gallon = 10 gallons
Answer:
B) -3/2
Step-by-step explanation:
If [x/2]=0 then x/2 is a number such that the least integer greater than or equal to x/2 is 0. We can rewrite this as the inequality x/2≤0. Then, the value of x in C, D and E is wrong because they are positive numbers, then x/2 would be a positive number which contradicts this inequality.
Now, 0 is the least integer that satisfies this inequality, therefore we cannot have that x/2≤-1 since -1 is an integer and -1<0. Then x/2>-1. This discards A as wrong, because for x=-2, x/2=-1, contrary to x/2>-1.
Thus B is the right answer. To verify, if x=-3/2, then x/2=-3/4 and we have that -1<-3/4≤0 as required.
