Answer:

In this equation, the y-intercept (+ 5) represents the original height of the plant. 2x represents the amount of growth multiplied by the number of days, x.

Answer: C) the y-intercept is the starting height of the plant

Step-by-step explanation:

In the equation of a straight line, there is a slope (2) and a y intercept (5). The y intercept is where the line crosses the y axis. It is the starting point for the y values. The science class starts the experiment with the plant being 5 centimeters high and since this is the starting point/height, this is also the y intercept.

What is the equation of this line?<br> o y = -1/4x<br> o y = – 4x<br> o y = 1/4x<br> O y = 4x
Kitty [74]

Answer:

<h2>Its C. y = 1/4x</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Look at the line. See where it attaches at one point and look where it attaches to another, for example, in this expression, it attaches to (0,0) and (4,-1). Then do rise over run, or y over x. This means to do this- y2 - y1 divided by x2 - x1. First, do -1 - 0. Its a double negative, so it becomes positive, thus making it 1 - 0, which is still 1. Then do 4 - 0, which is still 4. Divide 1 by 4, turn it to a fraction, and boom, you've got 1/4x.

Hope this helps!!!!![?][?][?]

A certain club has 20 members. What is the ratio of the number of 5-member committees that can be formed from the members of the
MissTica

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a combination question.

In the first instance, we select 5 from 20 and in the second case , we select 4 from 20.

The total number of ways to solve the first instance is 20C5 = 15504 ways

The total number of ways to solve the second instance is 20C4 = 4,845

The ratio of the first to the second scenario is 15,504/4,845 = 3.2 = 16 to 5
