1. The two equations follow the slope-intercept form which y=mx + b. They have the same y-intercept which is equal to 900.
2. Suppose x= 10
Plan Alpha: y=-7x+900=-7(10)+900=830
Plan Foxtrot: y = -17x+900 = -17(10)+900=730
Between the 2 plans, the lower value is 730. Plan Foxtrot is better for reduction of pollution.
3. The city council should choose Plan Foxtrot because the reduction of pollution is much greater. Their goal would be reached faster if they go with faster reduction of pollution.

Yasim is Albert who ran the race at a time that was 15.7 seconds shorter, So, Yasim is the student who improved the most by decreasing the time needed to run the race.
<h2>Given that,</h2>
Coach Burns charted the change in his runners' 5K times from the first race of the year to the second race of the year.
<h3>We have to
find,</h3>
Which student improved the most by decreasing the time needed to run the race?
<h3>
According to the
question,</h3>
Coach Burns charted the change in his runners' 5K times from the first race of the year to the second race of the year.
In the given option Yasim has the lowest value of the time which is -37.5 seconds.
Yasim was the most improved student because Yasim ran the second race in a time that was 37.4 seconds shorter than the first race.
Following Yasim is Albert who ran the race at a time that was 15.7 seconds shorter.
At the third place in improvement is Cody who actually was worse off than the first race along with the 4th place Hannah.
Hence, Yasim students improved the most by decreasing the time needed to run the race.
