1) m = y2 - y1/x2 - x1
y = mx + b
m = 7 - 0/3 - 8
y = -7/5x + 11.2
2) y= -7/5x + 12
(the slope or m stays the same because the two equations are parallel)
The maximum height is 64ft and the ballon is only in the air for 2 seconds
Answer:
c.
Step-by-step explanation:
3.6 divided by 9= 0.4
Answer is 0.4km
Lets plug in the answer choices and see which one works
A. x = -6
| -6 | < 3
6 < 3
False, so A is not the answer
B. x = -5
| -5 | < 3
5 < 3
False, so B isn't the answer
C. x = -1
| -1 | < 3
1 < 3
True, so C is the answer.
But lets just check D to make sure C is the answer.
D. x = 2
| 2 | < 3
2 < 3
False, so D isn't the answer either.
C is your answer :)
