y-axis = altitude in feet
x-axis = minutes
slope = y/x = feet/minute
According to above data, we know that 1800 feet is y-intercept and slope is -300 feet per minute (why slope is negative? because its approaching ground at a constant speed)
a. slope = -300
y-intercept = 1800
b. y = -300 x + 1800
c. Here we are given x = 2 minutes
y = -300(2) + 1800
y = -600 + 1800
y = 1200
The balloon will be 1200 feet high above the ground in 2 minutes.
d. Here we are given 300 feet which is y, and find x minutes.
y = -300 x + 1800
300 = -300x + 1800
300 - 1800 = - 300x
-1500 = -300x
1500 = 300 x
x = 1500 / 300
x = 5
The balloon will reach 300 feet above the ground in 5 minutes.
e. It asking when the balloon will reach the ground, if the balloon reaches the ground than the height will be 0, therefore x-intercept (y=0).
y = -300 x + 1800
0 = -300 x + 1800
-1800 = -300x
1800 / 300 = x
x = 6
The balloon will reach the ground in 6 minutes.

Answer:
<h2>462</h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
15% of 840 is 126
30% of 840 is 252
252
<u>+ 126 </u>
<em> 378</em>
<em></em>
840 - 378 = <em>462</em>
or

Answer:
First we find the value of x,
x ≥ -4
Step-by-step explanation:
3x+7 ≥ -5
3x ≥ -5 -7
3x ≥ -12
x ≥ -4
Now to graph this inequality, consider number line.
numbers greater than and equal to -4 are -3,-2,-1,0 and so on.
Note that in solution -4 is included so in graphing we use dot (filled circle).
