Given:

Given that an aquarium is being filled with water.

The given graph shows the height of the water over time as the aquarium is being filled.

We need to determine the slope of the graph.

Slope:

The slope of the given graph can be determined using the formula,

$m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

Since, the slope is same for all the points on the straight line, then let us consider the points (2,5) and (4,10)

Substituting these points in the above formula, we get;

$m=\frac{10-5}{4-2}$

Simplifying, we get;

$m=\frac{5}{2}$

$m=2.5$

Thus, the slope of the given graph is 2.5

+(-6) + (-8)= -4 What’s the missing number???

Darya [45]

Answer:

Step by step explanation:

In general, if we have an equation that has just one variable, such as x, then "solving the equation" means finding the set of all values that can be substituted for the one variable to produce a valid equation.

Isolate "x" on one side of the algebraic equation by adding the negative number that appears on the same side of the equation as the "x." For example, in the equation "x - 5 = 12", rewrite the equation as "x = 12 + 5" and solve for "x."

x + (-6) + (-8) = -4

x + (-6 + -8) = -4

x + (-14) = -4

x + (-14 + 14) = -4 + 14

x = 10

A line passes through the point (0, 2) and has a slope of -1/4 What is the equation of the line?

maw [93]

Answer:

The required equation is x + 4y = 8 !!

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :-  the line passes through the point ( 0 , 2 ) and the slope of the line is ( -1/4 )

• Also, to form an equation when a point through which line passes and slope of line is given we use the formula ;

( y - y1 ) = m ( x - x1 )

Where , y and x are variables

and ( x1 , y1 ) are the points through which line passes

also, m = slope of the required line

Here , x1 = 0 , y1 = 2 and m = ( -1/4 )
