Based on this data the point representing percentage of students who drink and drive in 2001 will be (1, 17.5).

The point representing the data of 2011 will be (11, 10.3). 

We have two points. Using these two points we can find the equation of the line.

Slope of the line = \frac{10.3-17.5}{11-1} =-0.72

Using the point slope form of the line equation:

f(t) - 17.5 = -0.72 ( t - 1 ) \\  \\ 
f(t) = - 0.72t + 0.72 + 17.5 \\  \\ 
f(t) = -0.72t +18.22

The linear function given above gives the percentage of high school students who drink and drive in year t, where t = 0 corresponds to year 2000.

A cylinder has a volume of 288 pi cubic meters and a height of 9 meters. What is the area of the base?
Pavlova-9 [17]

Answer:

The area of the base is about 32 square meters

Step-by-step explanation:

V = pi times r^2 times h which is the formula.

Since the volume is 288, and the height is 9 it is,

288 = pi times r^2 times 9,

288/9 = pi times r^2 times 9/9

32/pi = pi/pi times r^2

10.2 = r^2

The square root of 10.2 is about 3.19

Area formula is pi times radius, r^2

3.19 times 3.19  or 3.19^2 = 10.1761

10.1761 times pi is 31.96 which is about 32 square meters.

I hope this helps!
