We are going to base the answer off of the y=mx+b form where m represents slope and b represents the y-intercept.

First, we know that b must be -1 because the line hits the y-axis when y is -1
So this leaves us with either the first or second choice

Then we choose two points to find the slope. I am using (0,-1) and (1,2). If you count the boxes, the y-value increases by 3 as the x-value increases by 1. So the slope is 3/1 or 3.

So then we know the answer is y=3x-1

Hope this helps

$n$ - a number
$n^2$ - its square
$n+n^2$ - the sum
$\leq$ - less than or equal
negative three - I don't have to explain this one, do I?

$n+n^2\leq-3$ - the sum of a number and its square is less than or equal negative three

I don’t know if you meant 7 hours or 7 1/2 hours, but if it was in 7 hours, the answer would be around 15 square feet. If it was 7 1/2 hours, it would be 14 square feet.

How cos π/3=1/2?<br>having some problems learning continuity.

You can show that $\cos\frac\pi3=\frac12$ by constructing a triangle.

Take two points, O(0, 0) and A(1, 0), and let B be the point on the unit circle such that the angle between the line segments OA and OB is $\frac\pi3$ radians.

Since both A and B lie on the circle, the line segments OA and OB both have length 1 (same as the circle's radius). We finish constructing the triangle by connect A and B.

Since OB and OA have the same length, triangle OAB is isosceles, but more than that, it's also equilateral. Why? Because the interior angles of any triangle always add to $\pi$ radians. We know one of the angles is $\frac\pi3$ radians, which leaves a contribution of $\frac{2\pi}3$ radians between the remaining angles A and B. Angles A and B must be congruent (because OAB is isosceles), which means they also have measure $\frac\pi3$ radians.

Next, draw an altitude of the triangle through point B, and label the point where it meets the "base" OA, C. Since OAB is equilateral, the altitude BC is also a perpendicular bisector. That means OC has length $\frac12$ , and by definition of $\cos$ we have
