Answer:
- slope: -5/3
- y-intercept: 2
- x-intercept: 6/5 = 1.2
Step-by-step explanation:
Finding the slope is perhaps easiest done by solving for y.
5x -6 = -3y . . . . subtract 3
y = -5/3x +2 . . . divide by -3
This is slope-intercept form, so we can see both the slope (the coefficient of x, -5/3) and the y-intercept (the constant, +2).

To find the x-intercept, we set y=0 and solve for x. This might be most easily done using the original equation:
5x -3 = 0 +3 . . . . set y = 0
5x = 6 . . . . . . . . . add 3 to get the x-term by itself
x = 6/5 = 1.2 . . . . divide by the coefficient of x. This is the x-intercept.

Slope = -5/3
y-intercept = 2
x-intercept = 6/5

See solutions for detail.
Step-by-step explanation:
a. is the instantaneous rate of change of volume given with respect to time, t.
The volume's rate of change is written as a function of time.
- is the rate of change in the height of water in the tank with respect to time, t.
b. is the only constant. Water flows into the constant at a constant rate, say
per minute.
c. is positive. Volume water in the take is increasing from time to time.
-The volume at time t=1 is greater than the volume at t=0, hence, it's a positive rate of change.
d. is a positive rate. The initial height of water in the tank is zero.
-The final height at time t is 0.25h. The height is increasing with time.
Hence, it is positive.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given a graph and asked to find the slope.
So we can see two coordinate points, one on (0, 3) and (2, 0).
When trying to find slope, we use the method rise over run, which basically means y over x as a fraction, in which you then divide.
So count how many times it'll take for x to get to y, base it off the picture below
Since we see our numbers to be divided are 3 over 2, do the division and you get 1 1/2.
Would this be negative though? No, since the graph is in an increase, not a decrease.
