I believe the fastest way to solve this problem is to take any two of the given points and to find the slope and y-intercept of the line connecting those two points.
Let's choose the 2 given points (-3,16) and (-1,12).
Going from the first point to the second, the increase in x is 2 and the increase in y is actually a decrease: -4. Thus, the slope of the line connecting these two points is m = -4/2, or m = -2.
Now use the slope-intercept formula to find the y-intercept, b.
One point on the line is (-3,16), and the slope is m = -2.
Thus, the slope-intercept formula y = mx + b becomes 16 = -2(-3) + b.
Here, b comes out to 10.
So now we have the slope and the y-intercept. Write the equation:
y = mx + b becomes y=-2x+10. Which of the four given answer choices is the correct one?
Answer: The correct answer is 231 miles
Step-by-step explanation: 28 miles to the gallon x 8.25= 231 miles
Answer: y = 57°
Explanation: 180-114 = 66°
A triangle has a total of 180° so 180-66 = 114
114 / 2 = 57° (because angles y and y have the same value)
