A school system is reducing the amount of dumpster loads of trash removed each week. In week 5, there were 60 dumpster loads of

waste removed. In week 10, there were 40 dumpster loads removed. Assume that the reduction in the amount of waste each week is linear. Write an equation in function form to show the amount of trash removed each week. a. f(x) = - 4x + 60. b. f(x) = 4x + 60. c. f(x) = - 4x + 80. d. f(x) = 4x + 80

You are given two points,

(5, 60) and (10, 40)

in order to get the equation, let's use the form slope-intercept form

m = (y1 - y2) / (x1 - x2)

m = (60 - 40) / (5 - 10)

m = 20/-5

m = -4


Get the x intercept

y = mx + b

60 = (-4)(5) + b

b = 60+20

b = 80


so the equation is 

y = -4x + 80

f(x) = -4x + 80

Pls help me, I really dont understand

Answer:

-2.5x-.5

y=\frac{2}{3}x-1

draw the dotted line (3/7)x-3 and shade below it

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we need the slope

Use the slope formula:

\frac{Y_2-Y_1}{X_2-x_1}=\frac{2-(-8)}{-1-3}=\frac{10}{-4}=-2.5

so we have

y= -2.5x+b

Solve for b by plugging in coordiantes

-8= -2.5(3)+b

-8= -7.5+b

b= -.5

Put it together and get -2.5x-.5

2.)

A line is parallel to another line if they have the same slope (and different y intercepts)

So in the formula y=mx+b we knowe that m= 2/3

Now it's just a matter of solving for B

plug in the required coordinate to do this

-1=(2/3)*0+b

-1= b

Put it all together to get

y=\frac{2}{3}x-1

3.)

put this into slope intercept form

3x-7y>21

3x-21 > 7y

(3/7)x-3 >y

To graph this just draw a dotted line with the equation (3/7)x-3 and shade everything below it (use de_smos if you're stuck)
