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.

matrenka [14]

Answer:

$9

Step-by-step explanation:

Given  I owe my friend $16 and my mom owes me $25

step 1-->take back money from mom

Mom gives back you $25

Now you have $25

Step 2: return the money you owe to friend

you owe $16

You have $25 and return $16

Thus , money you will have = money you have - money you return

money you have = $25 - $16 = $9

Thus, you will have $9 , after all is settled.

oksian1 [2.3K]

Answer:

42 units²

Step-by-step explanation:

The figure is composed of a rectangle ( middle section) and 2 triangles with the same length base and height

Area of rectangle = 7 × 4 = 28 units²

Area of 2 triangles = 2 × \frac{1}{2} × 7 × 2 = 14 units²

Area of figure = 28 + 14 = 42 units²
