Answer:
Slope=-2/3, y-intercept=2, x-intercept=3
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the independent variable be x and dependent variable be y
y=h(x)
h is a linear function so it is represented in the general form of y=mx+c where
m is slope and c is the y-intercept.
Given "the dependent variable decreases 2 units for every 3 units the independent variable increases."
When x increases by 3, y decreases by 2
So the slope = rate of change of y / rate of change of x = -2/3
Given h(0)=2, h(0)=m(0)+c=2
c=2
Combining slope and y-intercept, y=-2/3*x+2
x-intercept is when y=0
0=-2/3*x+2
2/3*x=2
x=2*3/2=3
x-intercept=3
Answer:
39.0625 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the function is a quadratic representing height, and the coefficient of the t² is negative, the vertex of the parabola will be the maximum height achieved by the ball.
The general form for a quadratic equation is ax² + bx + c, here a is -16, and b is 50
To find the x coordinate of the vertex, use x = -b/(2a)
We have x = -50/[2(-16)]
x = -50/-32
x= 25/16
Now plug that into the equation to find the y value, which will be the height...
y = 50(25/16) - 16(25/16)²
y = 1250/16 - 16(625/256)
y = 1250/16 - 625/16
y = 625/16
y = 39.0625
Multiply the number of pencils by the length to get total centimeters first, then convert to meters:
24 x 19 = 456 cams.
1 meter = 100 cm
Divide total cm by 100 to get meters
456 / 100 = 4.56 meters
Answer:
B. (6,2) and (3,0)
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the slope the equation is 
so for (6,2) and (3,0) the equation would look like this 
which simplies down to 
and a negative divided by a negative is a positive so you're slope is 
and it matches the question.
