Answer:
y= -2/5 x -4
Step-by-step explanation:
So the equation is y=mx+b. Where m=slope and b=y-intercept. To find b, you would see at what point does the line cross the y axis. That would be at -4 so, -4 would be the b or y-intercept. To find m, you would take two points on the line and use this equation:
m=(y2 - y1 )/(x2 - x1)
If you were using the points, (-10,0) and (0, -4) the equation would be:
m=(-4-0) / (0+10)
So, m= -2/5
The equation of the line would end up being:
y= -2/5 x -4
Answer:
The ounces of oil needed is 5 ounces of oil
Step-by-step explanation:
The first thing to do here is to calculate the volume of the lemon-scented candle given.
Looking at shape the volume can be calculated using the formula L * B * H
where L(length) = 10cm , B(breadth) = 8cm and Height(h) = 25cm
The volume V is thus = 10 * 8 * 25 = 2,000 cm^3
The ounces of oil needed for the candle to have 0.0025 ounces of oil per cm^3 of wax will be = The volume of the lemon-scented candle * 0.0025 ounces of oil per cm^3 of wax
That will be = 0.0025 * 2,000 = 5 ounces
A table would help to organize more information than a graph would. A graph would help more with numbers.
