Answer:
c) 1
Step-by-step explanation:
=> ax+y = 5
<u><em>Putting x =2, y =3</em></u>
=> a(2)+3 = 5
=> 2a = 5-3
=> 2a = 2
<em>Dividing both sides by 2</em>
=> a = 1
slope = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
= (70-52)/(8-1)
= 18/7
=2.6
point slope form
y-y1 = m(x-x1)
y-52 = 2.6(x-1)
distribute
y-52 = 2.6x-2.6
add 52 to each side
y = 2.6x+49.4
y = 2.6x +49
the initial temperature is 49.4 or about 49
and it increases about 2.6 degrees each week
It is x/1 inch=6 inches/3 miles

Answer:
12 liters
Step-by-step explanation:
The kerosene usage is assumed to be jointly proportional to the number of stoves and the number of hours. That is ...
v = k·s·h . . . . . for s stoves running h hours
Then the value of k is ...
k = v/(sh) = (16 L)/(12·14) = 2/21 . . . . liters per stove-hour
Then the volume of kerosene required for 7 stoves and 18 hours is ...
v = (2/21)·s·h
v = (2/21)(7)(18) = 12 . . . liters
