15. true 16. false in my coculations.
I believe yes
Each time it goes up by one, it is always increasing by the same amount each time
The slope intercept form is y=mx+b
in this case y=-x
y=(-1)x + 0
so the slope m=-1 and y-intercept which is b is 0
96/4. You should get the answer by dividing 96 by 4.
let's recall that a cube is just a rectangular prism with all equal sides, check picture below.
