1. percent increase : (new number - original number) / (original number)...x 100
<span>(22 - 20) / 20 = 2/20 = 0.1.....0.1 x 100 = 10...so there is a 10% increase</span>
to find the equation of a linear equation given two points:
1) find the slope y=mx+b
here's the equation: (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
y2- y value of the 2nd point y1- y value of 1st point
x2- x value of 2nd point x1- x value of 1st point
1st point- (0, 12) 2nd point- (1,3)
so your slope equation is this: (3-12) / (1-0) or -9/1 or -9
m is -9
2) find the y intercept y=mx+b
b is whatever y is when x is 0. There's a long way to find it, but you already have it, because one of your points is (0,12). They told you what y was when x was 0.
b is 12.
your linear equation is y=-9x+12
to find the equation of an exponential equation given two points:
1) find a y=a(b)<span>×
</span>if one of your points has a 0 as the x value, the y value is a. you do have a point like this: (0,12) so...
<span>a is 12
</span>2) find b y=a(b)<span>×
put what you know a is in the equation: y=12(b)</span><span>×
then put the x and y values of the other point in for x and y in the equation
so (1,3) 1 is x and 3 is y
3=12(b)^1
when the exponent is 1, it disappears:
3=12b
simplify: b= 3/12 or b=1/4
then put all that in the equation:
y=12(3/4)</span><span>×</span>
Answer:
The y-intercept is (0, 5).
Step-by-step explanation:
We find the equation of the line in slope-intercept form:
y - y1 = m(x - x1)
y - 13 = 2(x - 4)
y = 2x - 8 + 13
y = 2x + 5 - This is slope-intercept form where the graph passes through the y-axis at y = 5.
Answer:
A y = -1/2 x2 Correctly answer
This one is A. Notice that every second the person moves 1.5 feet closer
