Answer:

C. 2

Step-by-step explanation:

The grid markings are the same distance apart in the x- and y-directions, so a line with slope 1 will make a 45° angle with the x-axis. Your line is steeper than that, so has a slope more than 1.

Your line goes up to the right, so its slope is positive.

The only answer choice that is a positive number more than 1 is ...

... C. 2

_____

The slope is computed as the ratio of rise (vertical change) to run (horizontal change). The two marked points tell you the vertical change is from y=-4 to y=6, a change of 6-(-4) = 10. The horizontal change is from x=1 to x=6, a change of 6-1 = 5.

Then the ratio of rise to run is 10/5 = 2. This matches answer C.

Use the cubic model y=3x^3 to find the value of y when x=8

GalinKa [24]

Answer:

Value of y is 1536.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have given an expression $y=3x^3$

We need to find the value of y when x=8

We will substitute the value of x as 8 in the given expression we get

$y=3(8)^3$

On simplification we get

$y=3(512)$

On further simplification we get:

$y=1536$

Hence, the required value that is the value of y is 1536
