A. slope is rise/run. can count up 3 right 2. slope = 3/2
also by slope formula m = (y - y1)/(x - x1)
B. y-intercept is the y coordinate where the line crosses the y-axis.
See that it is at y = -4 on the graph?
To use the slope.. go backwards from the closest point (4,2) down 2 left 3 gets you to the next point (2,-1) then go down 2 left 3 again to get to y-intercept (0, -4)
C. y = (3/2)x - 4
How you get it is by putting in the values into the standard equation for a line; y = mx + b
m is slope and b is y-intercept.
Answer:
Well first I think you have to get rid of the exponent then get rid of the x-values then plot the point. I think

Answer:
2
Step-by-step explanation:
2 is the answer of the above
Answer:
M(t) = 741·(1/2)^(t/5730)
Step-by-step explanation:
One way to write an exponential function is this:
value at time t = (initial value) · (multiplier over period)^(t/period)
Here, the initial value is given as 741 grams, and the time period is 5730 years. The multiplier over that period is 1/2, since half of the quantity remains after that time. The problem statement tells us that "value at time t" is M(t), so we have ...
M(t) = 741·(1/2)^(t/5730) . . . . . t in years; M(t) in grams
40 years, a simple google search would give you the answer.
