Answer:

<u>y=5x-7</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

1. First the slope: -17-8/-2-3= -25/-5=5

2. What is your line equation now? y=5x+b

3. Replace the x and y value with one of the coordinate points: 8=5(3)+b

4. Solve for b: 8=15+b  -7=b

5. Substitute it in the equation: y=5x-7

Hope this helps!

#6: Tell whether the function below is 1 point<br> linear or exponential.<br> *<br> f(x) = -1/4x + 5
Pachacha [2.7K]

Answer:

Linear function

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

f(x) = -\frac{1}{4}x + 5

Required

Linear or Exponential

A linear equation has the form: f(x) = mx + c;

An exponential has the form: f(x) = ab^x

By comparing both functions to: f(x) = -\frac{1}{4}x + 5

The linear function is similar to f(x) = -\frac{1}{4}x + 5

<em>Hence, the given function is a linear function.</em>

Leah loves chicken wings and is comparing the deals at three different restaurants. Buffalo Bills has 888 wings for \$7$7dollar
ella [17]

Cost of chicken wings at Buffalo Bills = 8 wings for $7

Cost of 1 wing at Buffalo Bills = \frac{7}{8} =0.875

Cost of chicken wings at Buffalo Mild Wings = 12 wings for $10

Cost of 1 wing at Buffalo Mild Wings = \frac{10}{12}= 0.833

Cost of chicken wings at Wingers = 20 wings at $17

Cost of 1 wing at Wingers = \frac{17}{20}= 0.850

Hence, comparing all the three costs per wing, we can see that Buffalo Mild Wings is serving chicken wings at lowest price of $0.833 per wing.

Answer: the large jar is cheaper

Step-by-step explanation:

If you divide the £1.54 by 440g and £1.26 by 340g, you'll find which one is cheaper per gram :

1.54/440 = 0.0035

1.26/340 = 0.0037

So, by comparing both prices/gram, you've found that the large jar is cheaper.
