Answer:
The problem implies that we want to write the (average) amount of natural sweeteners consumed per person as a function of time. Let y represent the (average) amount of natural sweeteners consumed per person (in pounds), and let x represent the time measured in years since 1990. That is, x = 0 represents 1990. If y is a linear function of x, then we can use the slope-intercept form y = mx + b (where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept) to write the function.
The slope can be interpreted as the rate of change of y with respect to x, which in this case means the change in consumption of natural sweeteners per year. The statement that consumption has decreased by 0.6 pounds per year tells us that the slope is m = -0.6 Also, the y-intercept is the same as the y-value of the function when x = 0. (In our case, that means time 0, that is, 1990.) Therefore the y-intercept is b = 133. Hope that helps! Let me know if you have any further questions.

Did you ever get the answer? I have pretty much the same exact one but mine said 150 skaters and I don't know how to answer it.
The Area of the platform is 33m²
Step-by-step explanation:
As the question says, the height of vertex from the base (D from AB) is 7m whereas the height of left vertex from the base (E from AB) is 4m
Thus it means the height of the Δ DCE (DX)= 7-4 ⇒3m
Since the platform is five-sided, the figure can be broken down into constituting parts
- Parallelogram ║ABCE
- Δ DCE
Are of the figure= Area of ║ABCE+ area Δ DCE
Area of ║ABCE= breadth * height
= 6*4 ⇒24m
²
Area Δ DCE= ½*(base)(height)
Putting the value of base is 6m and height as 3m
Area Δ DCE= ½*6*3
=9m
²
Total area= 24+9= 33m
²
Y = x^2 - 6y + 8
y = (x - 3)^2 - 9 + 8
y = (x -3 )^2 - 1
vertex is at ( 3, -1)
