Answer:
Third option
Step-by-step explanation:
The first definition is not as broad as it should be, therefore, while an angle does meet that criteria, it's not a general definition, hence, it is incorrect. The second one is incorrect as well because a parabola has a vertex, and it is certainly not an angle. This definition is not specific enough, so it will be eliminated. The last one is again, too specific. The third one is the best answer because it is broad enough while still being specific.
<u>Define x:</u>
Let the first number be x.
1st number = x
2nd number = x + 1
3rd number = x + 2
<u>Construct equation:</u>
x + x + 1 + x + 2 = 4(x + 1)
3x + 3 = 4(x + 1)
Answer: 3x + 3 = 4(x + 1)

Answer:
- slope: cost per mile
- y-intercept: fixed base cost
Step-by-step explanation:
The y-intercept is the value of y when x=0. The problem statement tells you that x is the number of miles driven, and y is the rental cost.
When the number of miles driven is zero, the rental cost is ...
y = 2.25×0 +70
y = 70
The cost of renting the truck is $70 when it isn't driven anywhere. The y-intercept ($70) is the basic, fixed cost of truck rental.
__
If x=1 (1 mile driven), then 2.25 is added to the cost of the truck rental. The slope (2.25) is the cost per mile driven. (That mileage cost is added to the basic rental cost.)
