Help it’s slope idk how to do it

a. $\boxed{y-602=\frac{2}{3}(x-3)}$

b. For every month the pine tree grows about 0.67 inches.

c. <em> </em>It represents the height of the tree at the moment Ariel started to record the heights.

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

<h3>PART A.</h3>

In this exercise we have that in July Ariel recorded the height of a pine tree and how quickly it was expected to grow in next several months. From the Table, we can get the following points:

$P_{1}(3,602) \\ \\ P_{2}(6,604) \\ \\ P_{3}(q,606) \\ \\ P_{4}(12,608)$

It is obvious that this problem follows a linear equation, so our goal is to find the equation that matches the Table.

The point slope form of the equation of a line is:

$y-y_{1}=m(x-x_{1}) \\ \\ Where: \\ \\ m:Slope \\ \\ (x_{1}, y_{1}):A \ point \ on \ the \ line$

Finding (m):

$Using: \\ \\ P_{1}(x_{1},y_{1}) \rightarrow P_{1}(3,602) \\ \\ P_{2}(x_{2}, y_{2}) \rightarrow P_{2}(6,604) \\ \\ m=\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}=\frac{604-602}{6-3} \\ \\ m=\frac{2}{3}$

Finally, the equation of the line is:

$(x_{1}, y_{1}) \rightarrow (3,602) \\ \\ \boxed{y-602=\frac{2}{3}(x-3)}$

<h3>PART B.</h3>

In this case, we have that:

The x-axis represents the <em>Number of Months </em>the pine tree was expected to grow.
The y-axis represents the <em>Height of the Tree </em>in inches.

Since the slope o a line is:

$Slope=\frac{Change \ in \ y}{Change \ in \ x}=\frac{2}{3}$

Then, this means that<em> every three months the pine tree grows two inches, </em><em>or </em><em>for every month the pine tree grows about 0.67 inches.</em>

<h3>PART C.</h3>

The y-intercept can be found setting $x=0$ . So, from our equation:

$y-602=\frac{2}{3}(x-3)} \\ \\ \\ If \ x=0: \\ \\ y-602=\frac{2}{3}(0-3) \\ \\ y-602=-2 \\ \\ Solving \ for \ y: \\ \\ y=602-2 \\ \\ y=600$

So the y-intercept is $y=600$ and<em> represents the height of the tree at the moment Ariel started to record the heights.</em>

Answer:

It could be any fraction such as -1/2, -4/5,-20/50, -1/3, -5/11 ...

As long as the fraction is larger than -1 but smaller than 0 it will work

Freddy spent $56.07 on four pairs of jeans at the store. His cost included $4.15 sales tax.

S_A_V [24]

$12.98 each. You would do $56.07 - $4.15. Then divide the answer of that by four.

Answer: x=-2 and y=-2

Step-by-step-explaination:

To solve the system of equations you have to cancel out a variable. I chose to cancel out Y. First, the coefficients of y need to be the same in both equations. To do this multiply to the top equation by 2 so you get

2(2x) +2(y) = 2(-6)

4x + 2y = -12

Next, subtract the second equation from the first to cancel out the y’s

4x + 2y =-12

-(-8x + 2y = -12)

————————

12x = -24

Solve

X = -24/12

X=-2

Plug x into the original equation to find y

2(-2) + y = -6

-4 + y = -6

Y = -6 +4

Y=-2

You can substitute x and y into the original equations to double check
