Answer:

The equation for the relationship between the weight and number of months is W(t)= 5.5t+79.5

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

A linear equation in slope intercept form is equal to

y=mx+b

where

m is the slope

b is the y-coordinate of the y-intercept (value of y when the value of x is equal to zero)

or say b is the actual weight of the wrestler.

In this problem

m=5.5 kg/month

Let

W ⇒ the sumo wrestler's weight in kg (dependent variable)

t ⇒ the time in months (independent variable)

The linear equation is equal to

W(t)=5.5t+b

where

b is the actual weight when he started the diet.

Now Given

W = 140 kg

t = 11 months

substitute in the linear equation to find the value of b

140 = 5.5\times11 +b\\140 = 60.5+b\\b = 140-60.5\\b = 79.5\ kg

W(t)= 5.5t+79.5

Hence,The equation for the relationship between the weight and number of months is W(t)= 5.5t+79.5

PLEASE HELP ASAP!!! What is the standard form for the quadratic function? g(x) = (x + 5)^2 −1
dedylja [7]

Answer:

g(x)= x^2+10x + 24.

Step-by-step explanation:

g(x) = (x + 5)^2 −1

= x^2 + 5x + 5x + 25 - 1

= x^2 + 10x + 24

g(x)= x^2+10x + 24 is your answer.

Hope this helps!

Which graph represents y as a function of x?
Vilka [71]

Answer:

Bottom left.

Step-by-step explanation:

In order for any of them to be the graph of a function you would need that given a value of x, you get no more than one value of y. Zero is fine, you just picked an x out of the domain.

In layman's terms it means that if you grab a ruler, a piece of paper, a pen, and you scan the graph moving the edge parallel to the y axis (ie, vertically) you are allowed to touch the graph only once. Top right is out. Bottom left is ok, bottom right is not: you have infinite points of contact in there.

Top left would be fine, if it wasn't for x = 1. In there you have two values marked with a solid dot. That makes it not the graph of a function.
