Answer:</h3>
For each birdhouse built, the total cost increases by $3.50.
<h3>
Step-by-step explanation:</h3>
Let's try some of the answers and see if they work.
The "initial cost" will be the cost when 0 birdhouses are built.
... f(0) = 3.5·0 +24 = 24 . . . . . clearly, not $3.50
Then increasing the number of birdhouses by 1, the cost is ...
... f(1) = 3.5·1 +24 = 27.5 . . . . . the cost has gone up (not down) by $3.50
Clearly the total cost to build 1 birdhouse is not $3.50. (It is $27.50.)
___
Our exploration of the formula leads us to conclude ...
... For each birdhouse built, the total cost increases by $3.50.
Answer:
The gradient of the line segment between the two points is -1
Step-by-step explanation:
The gradient of the line segment between two points is also known as the slope,
We can find this by using the formula; y₂ - y₁ / x₂ - x₁
The points given to us are;(-1,2) and (-2,3).
This implies x₁ = -1 , y₁=2 x₂ = -2 y₂= 3
We can now proceed to insert our values into the formula;
Gradient = y₂ - y₁ / x₂ - x₁
= 3 - 2 / -2-(-1)
= 1 / -2 + 1
=1/-1
Gradient = -1
Therefore the gradient of the line segment between the two points is -1
