You know the answer is the third choice (C) because 7^2 is 49 and 8^2 is 56, the two closest squared numbers to 54.
49 < 54 < 56
The square root of 54 is roughly 7.4
I hope that helps :)
Answer:
The correct answer is the first one of your list of options:
"<em>Locate the ordered pair (0, –6). From that point on the graph, move up 2, right 1 to locate the next ordered pair on the line. Draw a line through the two points</em>."
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the y-intercept is -6, then the point (0, -6) is a point on the line.That is x = 0 and y = -6. From there you move according to the slope value "2 = 2/1" which means two units of rise when the run is one.
Then, from (0, -6) move up 2 units and then right one unit. The new point should also be a point on the line. Join the two points with a line to graph the function.
