Find slope (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
Pick points: (1,10) , (2,8)
(8-10)/(2-1) = -2/1 = -2
Y = -2x + b
10 = -2 + b, b = 12
It would be the first response
12 = initial while -2 is rate of change
The height is 33.
Set up the equation like this,
1056 = 32 h
Solve the one step equation and get 33.
Hope this helps!
Because like terms you add or subtract together to make it easier to do the problem. just like you do with whole numbers. you add an subtract to make the answer simpler.
