Answer:

  • y = 260x + 700
  • $5900

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>We can describe it as a linear function with points of:</u>

  • (5, 2000) and (15, 4600)

<u>Slope intercept formula:</u>

  • y = mx +b

<u>Finding the slope using the two given points:</u>

  • m = (4600-2000)/(15-5) = 2600/10 = 260

<u>Finding b:</u>

  • 2000 = 5*260 + b
  • b = 2000 - 1300 = 700

<u>Formula obtained:</u>

  • y = 260x + 700

<u>For x = 20, value of y is:</u>

  • y = 260*20 + 700 = 5200+700 = $5900

Paula is located at a position of −12 feet relative to the ground. Which statement shows the distance she is from ground level?
Greeley [361]

The absolute value of a number is the distance from point to the origin. Since Paula is located at a position of −12 feet relative to the ground, then the distance from point -12 on the number line to the origin is 12 (distance cannot be negative).

Thus, |-12|=12 and Paula is at a distance of 12 feet.

Answer: correct choice is C
