Answer:
Slope is -2
Step-by-step explanation:
16,896 feet is the distance
135.78 rounded to the nearest tenth is 135.8.
Answer:
P = -2600/3 t + 25600/3
P = -8200/3
Step-by-step explanation:
t is the time in years since 1990, so two points on the line are (5, 4200) and (8, 1600).
Using the points to find the slope:
m = (y₂ − y₁) / (x₂ − x₁)
m = (1600 − 4200) / (8 − 5)
m = -2600/3
Now writing the equation in point-slope form:
P − 4200 = -2600/3 (t − 5)
Converting to slope-intercept form:
P − 4200 = -2600/3 t + 13000/3
P = -2600/3 t + 25600/3
In 2003, t = 13:
P = -2600/3 (13) + 25600/3
P = -8200/3
9 squared is 81
81=9^2
Or, (3^2)^2. Double square!
