Question 1:
Slope = 1/5
y = mx + c
y = 1/5 x + c
at point (5, -1)
-1 = 1/5 (5) + c
- 1= 1 + c
c = - 2
y = 1/5x - 2
5y = x - 10
Question 2:
slope = (9-5)/(3-1)
Slope = 2
y = mx + c
y = 2x + c
at point (1, 5)
5 = 2(1) + c
c = 5 - 2
c = 3
y = 2x + 3
Answer:
7.10299
Step-by-step explanation:
is best evaluated in a calc.
Answer:
A) y=.50x+15
B) The graph would be a line starting in the bottom left corner and rising to the upper right, the start of the y axis would be 1, as it represents the miles, and the start of the x axis would be 0.50, as it represents the amount of money charged per mile.
C) If you apply the formula y=mx+b to the equation, you will see that 0.50 is the slope, and 15 is the y-intercept.
