I believe this is how you solve it
Answer:
f(x) = -5/9 x + 5 1/9
Step-by-step explanation:
f(2)=4 and f(−7)=9 means the line pass through (2,4) and (- 7,9)
f(x) = mx + b
m = (y-y') / (x-x') = (9 - 4) / (- 7 - 2) = - 5/9
for (2,4) : b = f(x) - mx = y - mx = 4 - (- 5/9) x 2 = 4 + 10/9 = 46/9 = 5 1/9
f(x) = -5/9 x + 5 1/9
check for (-7, 9) f(-7) = (-5/9) * (-7) + 5 1/9 = 35/9 + 46/9 = 81/9 = 9
Short side length = x
Medium side = x + 7
Long side = 5x
Total 49, so
x + x + 7 + 5x = 49
If you combine like terms:
7x + 7 = 49
Subtract 7 from both sides
7x = 42
Divide both sides by 7
x = 6 inches.
Hello!
First you have to find what the temperature was at the 3 stages
It started at 87
Then went down 10
87 - 10 = 77
Then up 17
77 + 17 = 94
Then you take the difference from the current temperature from the lowest temperature
94 - 77 = 17
The answer is D
Hope this helps!
