The easiest way is to graph it based upon the slope (m) and y-intercept (b), in the standard slope-intercept form: y = m (x) + b.
The line above intercepts the y-axis at y = -2, which is b. The slope (m) = rise/run = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1 ); so for the point (-4, 2) to (-6, 4) is:
(4-2)/(-6--4) = 2/(-6+4) = 2/-2 = -1.
So one form of the equation would be:
y = -1x - 2
Now the other form of an equation is point-slope: y-k = m (x-h), where the point is at (h, k)
and if we pick -5 for x (bc 5 it listed in 3 of the answers), the y at x=-5 looks like around +3
so we get: y-k = -1 (x--5)...
y-3 = -(x+5)... therefore D) is the correct answer:

The height of Atlas V rocket used for space lifts was 205 feet. What is the height of a model of Atlas V rocket if the scale fac
KengaRu [80]

Answer: 6.4 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Height of Atlas V rocket = 205 feet

Ratio of the model = 1:32 = 1/32

Model / Real = 1/32

Since Real height = 205, we put it into the equation and this will be:

Model / Real = 1/32

Model / 205 = 1/32

Model × 32 = 205 × 1

Model = 205/32

Model = 6.4 feet

The height of the model is 6.4 feet.

All Major League Baseball stadiums use standard measurements for their infield area. The pitcher's mound is a circle with a diam
denis-greek [22]

Answer:

254 4/7 or 254.34 ft² (it depends on which method you use.)

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the area of a circle, the formula is πr².

I'll use both 22/7 and 3.14 as pi, so I'll end up with two different answers. Just choose the more reliable one.

22/7 version:

22/7 * 9^2

22/7 * 81/1

1782/7

254 4/7 ft²

3.14 version:

3.14 * 9^2

3.14 * 81

314 - (3.14 * 19)

314 - 62.8 + 3.14

251.2 + 3.14

254.34 ft²

As I said, I ended up with two different answers. You also had said not to round my answer, so the 22/7 version has a mixed number.

The function y=40x describes how far from home Shu Ling is as she drives from Dallas to Miami. Graph the function. Use the graph
oksano4ka [1.4K]

Answer:

You can see the graph below.

To answer the question, you need to draw a vertical line from x = 12h up, until the line meets with the line.

Once the line meets with the line, draw a horizontal line from that point, and the value where this line intersects with the y-axis will be the distance from home after 12 hours.

The graph is kinda hard to read because the line is really steep, the green line is the equation y = 40*x

the red line is a line at x = 12

The black dashed line is the horizontal line that intersects with the y-axis.

In the graph, you can see that the dashed line intersects the y-axis at around y = 475.

Then a good estimate is that the distance after 12 hours is 475 (miles).

Now, we can compare this with the direct calculation, just replace x by 12 in the given line:

y = 40*12 = 480.

So our estimation is really accurate.
