What is the slope of the line represented by the data table?

Mathematics

djyliett [7]4 years ago

A) Slope:    (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)

You can use point  (-1, -6) and (0, -8)

Slope =    (-8 - -6) /(0 - -1) =   (-8+6)/(0+1) = -2/1  = -2.

Slope = -2.

b) Point (0, -8)  is the point such that  x = 0,  and y = -8, this point represents the vertical intercept  of the equation.  The point where the line cuts the y axis.

Salsk061 [2.6K]

Answer: In June 2097

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the model, to find how many years t should take for  P(t)=21100 we must solve the equation  0.9t^2+6t+14000=21100. Substracting 21100 from both sides, this equation is equivalent to 0.9t^2+6t-7100=0.

Using the quadratic formula, the solutions are t_1= \frac{-6-\sqrt{6^2 -4*0.9*(-7100)}}{2*0.9}=-92.21 and t_2=\frac{-6+\sqrt{6^2 -4*0.9*(-7100)}}{2*0.9}=85.54. The solution t_1=-92.21 can be neglected as the time t is a nonnegative number, therefore t=t_2=85.54.

The value of t is approximately 85 and a half years and the initial time of this model is the January 1, 2012. Adding 85 years to the initial time gives the date  January 2097, and finally adding the remaining half year (six months) we conclude that the date is June 2097.

The number of small lawns Isabella can rake depends on the amount of time she spends raking. Isabella can rake 3 lawns in 3.75 h
ycow [4]

Answer:

1) 4      2)7

Step-by-step explanation:

1) If we divide 3.75/3=1.25 which is the amount of time she takes per yard so if we add another yard to what she has already done we find she only could do one more yard in 5 hours 3.75+1.25=5.00 So she can only rake 4 yards in 5 hours

2) If we divide 20.25/3=6.75 we find that each ticket is $6.75 so we must divide that by 47.25 to get the amount of tickets 47.25/6.75=7
