Answer:

y = - 5x + 3

Step-by-step explanation:

the equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y-intercept )

y = - 5x - 1 is in this form

with slope m = - 5

• Parallel lines have equal slopes

The only equation from the list with m = - 5 is

y = - 5x + 3

In a restaurant 72 out of 108 tables are booths. What is the ratio of tables that are booths to the total number of tables.

denpristay [2]

Answer:

The ratio of tables that are booths to the total number of tables = $\frac{72}{108}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of tables in a restaurant, p = 108

The number of table that are booths, q = 72

Then, the ratio of tables that are booths to the total numbers of tables = $\frac{q}{p}$

= $\frac{72}{108}$

Pauley graphs the change in temperature of a glass of hot tea over time. He sees that the function appears to decrease quickly a

Mekhanik [1.2K]

Answer: We know that an "exponential growth" is that where a function start growing slowly and after start increasing more quickly.

a "logarithmic growth" is the opposite of this, at first you will see a quick increase, that after some time gets slower.

But in this case we are searching for decays: The decays are the opposite of the growths, an "logarithmic decay" starts slow and gets faster latter, and an "exponential decay" decreases very quickly at first, and latter more slowly.

Then, the model for the temperature of the hot tea over the time is a "exponential decay", this is a function of the form T(x) = T₀ $e^{-kt}$ , where T₀ is the initial temperature, t is the time, and k is a constant number.
