Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

(1,4) (6,-1)

1-6= -5

6--1= 7 its 7 because 6 minus negative 1 would be 7

-5/7 would be your slope

---------------------------------------------------

y=mx+b

y= -5/7x+b

-1= -5/7(6)+b

-1= 6 $\frac{-5}{7}$ +b

you take those two numbers and subtract

5 $\frac{-5}{7}$ is y intercept

y= $\frac{-5}{7}$ x+5 $\frac{-5}{7}$

Ever since renata moved to her new home, she's been keeping track of the height of the tree outside her window. h(t)h(t)h, left

lilavasa [31]

It was 210 cm.

The function she used is h(t) = 210 + 33t. This is a linear function, since it is of the form f(x) = mx+b. In a linear function, we have the slope, m, which tells us how much the height increases per year, and the y-intercept, b, which tells us how tall it was when we began measuring. Our m value would be 33 and our b would be 210, so the original height was 210.
