Hey just to let you now it came out blury
<h3>
Answer: -4</h3>
==========================================================
Explanation:
We can pick any two rows from the table to get the (x,y) points needed to find the slope.
Let's say we pick the second and third rows
Subtract the y values: 14-6 = 8
Subtract the x values in the same order: 1-3 = -2
Divide the differences: 8/(-2) = -4
The slope is -4
--------------------------------------------------
You can use the slope formula
Let's say the points are (x1,y1) = (1,14) and (3,6)
m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
m = (6-14)/(3-1)
m = -8/2
m = -4
It's the same basic idea as the previous section. You subtract the y values together (y2-y1) and the x values together (x2-x1) and divide the differences to get m. The order of subtraction doesn't matter as long as you stay consistent. If you do something like y2-y1 and x1-x2, then you'll get the wrong slope value.
Answer:
3
Step-by-step explanation:
Function B looks like y = 3x + 4
with Function A being y = 9x + 4
9 is 3 times more than 3
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
