Answer:
m = -1/4
Step-by-step explanation:
4y + x = 8
Arrange the equation in a slope intercept form y = mx+b, where m is the slope
4y + x = 8, subtract x from both sides
4y = -x +8, divide both sides by 4
y = -x/4 + 8/4 , simplify
y = -x/4 + 2, compare this to the general form y=mx+b and we see that the slope m = -1/4
I'm not sure what you meant after alligators, if it was or or for, but I think it was for so I'm going with that. If 60 increase every 5 years, it would be 60 over 5 (in fractions). So I would do 60 divided by 5, which would be 12. So that means 12 increase every year. I'm not sure what mean meant either, if you're talking about the mathematical mean, but you can't solve the mean in this problem. The Answer: The yearly change in the alligator population would be 12.
Answer:
A. 5.3
Step-by-step explanation:
While both of these numbers are close to 7, 5.3 is the closest and we can find this out with subtraction. So, 9.9 - 7 = 2.9, but 7 - 5.3 = 1.7. Which one can we determine is closer? Well, 2.9 > 1.7, so our answer must be A. 5.3!
Have a nice day and I hope this helped!
Answer:
1=4(2)-7
Step-by-step explanation:
y=mx+b
b=where it crosses the y-axis
m=slope
1=4(2)-7
In this case, 7 is being added to the odometer which already reads 78. If you add 7 to 78, you get 85. Meaning y = 85!
