A young sumo wrestler decided to go on a special high-protein diet to gain weight rapidly. When he started his diet, he weighed

79.5 kilograms. He gained weight at a rate of 5.5 kilograms per month. Let y represent the sumo wrestler's weight (in kilograms) after x months. Which of the following could be the graph of the relationship? graph of an increasing linear function in quadrant 1 with a positive y-intercept (Choice B) B graph of an increasing linear function in quadrants 1 and 4 with a positive x-intercept and negative y-intercept (Choice C) C graph of a decreasing linear function in quadrants 1 and 4 with a positive x-intercept and positive y-intercept (Choice D) D graph of a decreasing linear function in quadrant 4 with a negative y-intercept

Answer:

(Choice A) A graph of an increasing linear function in quadrant 1 with a positive y-intercept.

Step-by-step explanation:

The weight of the sumo wrestler starts at a positive value of 79.5 kilograms, and we are given that the sumo wrestler gains a linear amount of weight per month at 5.5 kilograms per month.

If we were to graph this relationship, the sumo wrestler's weight would be represented on the y-axis, and the amount of time on the x-axis.

So the initial weight would occur at (0, 79.5) which is the positive y-intercept.

And since his weight is increasing at 5.5 kilograms per month, the slope of the linear function is positive.

Hence, the graph of the linear increasing function in quadrant 1 with a positive y-intercept.

Cheers.

Find the GCF
Kaylis [27]
Greatest Common Factor. let's go over that. GCF of 6 and 12 would be 6 because 6 goes into 6, 1 times and 6 goes into 12, 2 times. . and it is the largest. so first you see if the lower number can go directly into the higher number. So 28a^2 b^2 c^2, is made of 14abc× 2abc. so you can say 14abc goes into 28a2b2c2, 2abc times. therefore 14abc is the largest factor.

Give an example of an equation with an infinite number of solutions. Then make one change to the equation so that it has no solu
mrs_skeptik [129]
Two equations with infinite solutions would look the exact same. Example:
y=mx+b
y=mx+b
Example 2
y=2x+5
y=2x+5
For an equation with no solution they would have the same slope but different y intercepts. An equation with same slope and same y intercepts would have infinite solutions.
