Look at some shorter periods of time to decide whether their reasonable. Do that by simplifying the fraction. . . . . 40,000 pounds / 80 years = 4,000 pounds / 8 years = 2,000 pounds (1 ton) / 4 years = 1,000 pounds / 2 years (have you decided yet ? Well, simplify it some more) 1,000 pounds / 2 years = 500 pounds per year = almost 1 and 1/2 pounds of bread every day of your life. NOW what do you think ? Make sense ?

1. (5,8) m= 3<br> It wants me to write this in slope intercept form
ikadub [295]

Answer:

The answer is: y = 3x - 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Given point: (5, 8).

Slope m = 3

Use the point slope form and solve for y:

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

y - 8 = 3(x - 5)

y - 8 = 3x - 15

y = 3x - 15 + 8

y = 3x - 7

Proof:

f(x) = 3x - 7

f(5) = 3(5) - 7

= 15 - 7 = 8, giving (5, 8)
