<u>Given</u>:

The given graph passes through the points (-3,4) and (3,2)

The x - axis represents the years. The value x = 5, year 2015.

We need to determine the y - value for 2010.

<u>Slope</u>:

The slope of the line can be determined using the formula,

m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

Substituting the points (-3,2) and (3,2), we get;

m=\frac{2-4}{3+3}

m=\frac{-1}{3}

Thus, the slope of the line is m=\frac{-1}{3}

<u>y - intercept:</u>

The y - intercept in the graph is the point in the line that crosses the y - axis.

Thus, from the graph, it is obvious that the y - intercept is b = 3.

<u>Equation of the line:</u>

The equation of the line can be determined using the formula,

y=mx+b

Substituting the values, we have;

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

Thus, the equation of the line is y=-\frac{1}{3}x+3

<u>The y - value for 2010:</u>

Since, it is given that x = 5 represents 2015 and 2010 is 5 years before 2010.

Hence, the value of x for 2010 is given by

x=5-5=0

Thus, x = 0 represents the year 2010.

To determine the y - value, let us substitute x = 0 in the equation y=-\frac{1}{3}x+3, we have;

y=-\frac{1}{3}(0)+3

y=3

Thus, for 2010 the value of y is 3.

stellarik [79]

Answer:

188.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Okay, so. He had 403.75. He gives 215.50 to Mia. So, we would subtract it.

403.75 - 215.50 = 188.25

Therefore they will have 188.25 left.

Please help me with this thankyou​

The answer would be 60

The first think you would need to do would simply 144. Which would be 12.

Then you are going to want to multiply-5 by 12.
Which would be 60.
With 12 as a positive number, being greater or to than 60 then will become a positive.

PLEASE HELP WITH QUESTIONS 11-14 ASAP!!!!!!!!
zysi [14]

Answer:

11) mean=2   12) median=2   13)range =4  

Step-by-step explanation:

11) the set is

0,0,1,1,1,2,2,2,2,2,3,3,3,4,4

so add all these which will give you 30 and then divide that by how many numbers are there in the set which there are 15, so 30 divided 15 =2

12) arrange numbers from smallest to largest and the number exactly in the middle is the median

13)biggest number-smallest number
