Galvin and Henry spend a certain amount of money from their money box each month to buy plants. The table shows the relationship

between the amount of money (y) remaining in Galvin's money box and the number of months (x):
Number of Months
(x)

Amount Remaining (dollars)
(y)

1

80

2

75

3

70

4

65



The equation shows the relationship between the amount of money, y, remaining in Henry's money box and the number of months, x:

Function 2:
y = −7x + 80

Which statement explains which function shows a greater rate of change?
Function 2 shows a greater rate of change, because Henry spends $7 each month and Galvin spends $5 each month.
Function 2 shows a greater rate of change, because Henry spends $80 each month and Galvin spends $15 each month.
Function 1 shows a greater rate of change, because Galvin spends $15 each month and Henry spends $73 each month.
Function 1 shows a greater rate of change, because Galvin spends $5 each month and Henry spends –$7 each month.

Answer:

The correct option is 1.

Step-by-step explanation:

If a line passing through two points then the slope of the line is

m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

Choose any two points of function 1:

Let the points are (1,80) and (2,75). The rate of change of function 1 is

m_1=\frac{75-80}{2-1}=-5

It means Galvin spends $5 each month.

Henry's money deifned by the equation

y=-7x+80          .... (1)

The slope intercept form of a line is

y=mx+b             ... (2)

From (1) and (2) we get

m_2=-7

It means Henry's spends $7 each month.

Function 2 shows a greater rate of change, because Henry spends $7 each month and Galvin spends $5 each month.

Therefore the correct option is 1.

You and your friend are practicing for a rowing competition and want to know how far it is to an island in the Indian River Lago
zepelin [54]

The drawing is missing, so i have attached it.

Answer:

24 yards

Step-by-step explanation:

From the image, we can see that AB and DE are both adjacent sides of their respective triangles.

While, CE and BC are both opposite sides of their respective triangles

Now, from your side, x is the distance to the island.

So, from ratio of similar triangles, we can find x.

Thus;

8/x = 3/9

Cross multiply to get;

8 × 9 = 3x

3x = 72

x = 72/3

x = 24

Thus, distance from your side to the island is 24 yards

Help pls ill love you forever

Answer:

y-4=\frac{1}{5}(x-7)

Step-by-step explanation:

The point-slope form of a line is given by:

y-y_1=m(x-x_1)

Where

(x_1,y_1) is the coordinate pair (any of the points given)

m is the slope. The ratio of change in y coordinates by x coordinates

Let's calculate the slope:

m=\frac{4-3}{7-2}\\m=\frac{1}{5}

Now, it is given "y - 4", so y_1 is 4, so they are using the coordinate pair (7,4). So we can say x_1 = 7

Now we have all the values, lets write the equation:

y-y_1=m(x-x_1)\\y-4=\frac{1}{5}(x-7)

This is the point-slope form.

How do I solve this y=5x +10 (2,14)
AlekseyPX
If you are asking if (2,14) would be a point on the line, it would not because:
14≠5*2+10

Hope this helps :)
