Answer:
Initial value
, rate of change:
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1
Find the rate of change
we know that
In a linear equation the rate of change is equal to the slope
The formula to calculate the slope between two points is equal to
we have
Substitute the values
----> rate of change
Step 2
Find the initial value
The equation of the line into slope-point form is equal to
Substitute

The initial value is the value of y when the value of x is equal to zero (is the y-intercept)
----> initial value
Answer:
2 5/6
Step-by-step explanation:
9 5/12 - 6 7/12
We will need to borrow from the 9
8 12/12 + 5/12 - 6 7/12
8 17/12 - 6 7/12
(8-6) + (17/12 -7/12)
2 10/12
This simplifies. Divide the top and bottom of the fraction by 2
2 5/6
