In y = mx + b form, the slope can be found in the m position and the y intercept can be found in the b position.
y = mx + b
y = 2x + 15
slope(m) = 2 and y int (b) = 15
The initial amount is the y intercept, which is 15. The rate of change (the slope) is 2
example :
baskets picked in 1 hr :
y = 2(1) + 15
y = 2 + 15
y = 17
baskets picked in 2 hrs :
y = 2(2) + 15
y = 4 + 15
y = 19
so the slope ( rate of change) is basically saying for every hr of picking, you pick 2 baskets...so your picking 2 baskets per hr.
The y intercept (15) is telling us that they already had 15 baskets to start with.
Answer: W= -0.75
Explanation: 8 x -0.75= -6
-6 + 9= 3
Weight of 1 c
3 c = 2.25 - empty bucket
3 c = 2.25 - 0.75
3 c = 1.5
c = 1.5/3 =1/2
Jug Weigh = (1/2)x +0.75
Answer:
L=35cm
Step-by-step explanation:
Perimeter is 2(L+w)
156cm=2*(43+L)
L=35cm
