Answer: 36.66min
Step-by-step explanation:
y = 47.38 + 0.617x
where y is the number of dollars
x is the number of minutes on the job
Given a value of y = $70, then
We substitute y = $70 in the equation.
70 = 47.38 + 0.617x
22.62 = 0.617x
X = 22.62/0.617 = 36.66min
The answer is A, all that was needed was to do the math.
What do we know about those two lines?
They are perpendicular, meaning they have the same slope.
We know the slope of both is not zero (neither is vertical).
Therefore either
1) Both slopes are positive and therefore the product is positive
2) Both slopes are negative and therefore the product is positive (minus by a minus is a plus)
For the y intercepts, we know that the line P passes through the origin.
Therefore its Y intercept is zero.
[draw it if this is not obvious and ask where does it cross the y axis]
Therefore the Y intercept of line K and line P is zero.
[anything multiplied by a zero is a zero]
So we know that the product of slopes is positive, and we know that the product of Y intercepts is zero.
So the product of slopes must be greater.
Answer A
The formula for slope intercept form is y=mx+b where x is the slope and b is the y intercept. To find the slope you would have to do -2-7 over 8-0 and that would give you -9/8. That would be your slope. And I think you should be given a graph I’m not sure but if there is look at it and see what point you see on the y axis
