Answers:
1) The dependent variable is the boiling point of water and the independent variable is the altitude.
2) The slope would represent the average decrease of the boiling point of water per every one thousand feet that the altitude increase.
Explanation:
1) given
Table:
<span>Altitude
(in thousands of feet) Boiling Point of Water (Fahrenheit)
(sea level) 0
212
0.5 211.1
1.0 210
2.0 208.4
2.5 207.5
3.0 206.6
4.0 204.8
4.5 203.9
2) The independent variable is the input of the function, and the dependent variable is the output of the function.
The input determines the output once the rule is established.
Therefore:
a) the independent variable is the altitude, and
b) the dependent variable is the boiling point of water in Farenheit.
3) The slope of the graph would be:
change in the dependent variable change in boiling point
slope = --------------------------------------------------- = ---------------------------------
</span> change in the independent variable change in altitude
Therefore, the slope represents the average change in the boiling boilin point of water every one thousand feet on change of altitude.
If the relationship is not linear, then the slope is not constant, and you will have different slopes for different parts.
If the slope is negative, means that as the altitude increase the boiling point of water decrease.
You can calculate the slope using any two pair of points (data)
212 - 210 2
slope =---------------- = ------- = - 2
0 - 1 - 1
or, using other pair of points:
204.8 - 210 -5.2
slope = --------------------- = --------- = -2.6
4.0 - 2.0 2.0
As you see, the slope is not constant. So, the function is not linear.
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
14/2
Answer:
A is f(t)=-(t-4)^2+50
B is 50. the top of the graph is at 50
C is at 4. that is the x value when y=50
If you need the graph put the answer from question A into Desmos
3/2
<em>Step One:</em> 1 3/8, transform the number into a improper fraction:
- To have a mixed number in to a improper fraction, you need to use addition and multiplication. For 1 3/8, We first multiply the denominator (8, also know to be the bottom number of the fraction) to the whole number (1). 8x1= 8
- NOTE: The original denominator (8) will be use for are improper, again playing as the denominator, we only multiply the denominator for the numerator (which is the top number of a fraction).
- After multiplying, we'll add are product with the numerator (3) for the process. 8+3= 12
- Now we have both numerator and denominator for 1 3/8, we can create the improper fraction. 12 as the numerator and 8 as the denominator. 12/8
- We still need to simplify the number. To that, we need the biggest whole number, or rather I call it the lowest number, that can be divide both in 12 and 8.
- 4 can be divide by both number so: 12/4= 3 and 8/4=2
- Now 3 is are simplify numerator and 2 is are simplify denominator.
You need a graph to go with it
