Answer:
slope: 5
y-intercept: 3
therefore y=5x+3
Step-by-step explanation:
the slope is the value that is changing; as time passes the price increases by $5 per hour
the y-intercept is where the function crosses the y-axis (when x is 0); so when no time has passed.
The circumference of the tire would be: 28 x PI = 87.96 inches = 88 inches.
88 inches / 12 inches = 7.33 feet
Every revolution the tire would travel 7.33 feet.
1 mile = 5,280 feet
3 miles = 5280 x 3 = 15,840 feet total.
Divide total feet by the circumference of the tire:
15,840 / 7.33 = 2,161 revolutions.

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
I'm sure he was making a joke at the expense of people who rely on mathematics rather than common sense. It is funny, but then Twain was a remarkably funny author..
The problem is that the comparison is apt using some sort of proportion, but it is absurd to think that the land holding the river would also shrink a proportional amount.
The river reached a minimum (presumably) in 1875 by cutting out all the loops that were there in 1700. The Mississippi was then a straight line from it's beginning to its delta on the gulf of Mexico. It could not get any shorter. Still, Twain managed to get laughs with his whimsical humor.
Thanks for posting. This made my evening.
