Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for y and look at the coefficient of x.

y -2x = -3 . . . . . . divide by 5

y = 2x -3 . . . . . . add 2x

The coefficient of x is the slope: 2.

_____

On a graph, the slope is the rise divided by the run. For the two marked points on this graph, the rise is 2 and the run is 1, so the slope is ...

m = 2/1 = 2

A dog owner is told by the veterinarian that his dog, Max, is overweight and needs to lose 4 to 5 pounds in order to live a heal

hodyreva [135]

This is a linear function, of the kind y = mx + b

where x is the number of visit, b is the weight when x = 0, and m is the predicted change of weight for every visit.

m = - 4 ounces / visit, which must be converted to pounds (the negative sign indicates that the change is a decrease)

1 lb = 16 ounces = 4 ounces = 0.25 lb

Then m = - 0.25 lb / visit.

Now, for x = 1, y = 126 => 126 = - 0.25(1) + b => b = 126 + 0.25 = 126.25

Then the function is y = 126.25 - 0.25x

Now round to the nearest tenth:

y = 126.3 - 0.3x

Answer: y = 126.3 - 0.3x
