Answer:

For #1 a real life problem that could use this information would be "If a mud wall is built 24 feet high, and rain reduces the height by 6 feet every year, how long will it take the wall to disappear altogether?".

Step-by-step explanation:

When designing a problem like this when we already know the answer, use the y-intercept as a starting point. In this case, we start with a 24 foot wall.

Next use the rate as what changes for every unit. In this case, the height changes every year by -6.

Finally, the answer should always be the x-intercept.

To find this, you can do the is over of technique.

The is over of technique is as says - is over of and percent over one hundred.

If you use this technique, your equation should look like this:

x/50 = 10/100

Cross multiply 10 and 50 and divide by 100 to get the answer of 5.

Hope this helps!
