He means that 5.08 cm is a possible coordinate, and 50.8 mm is a possible coordinate

Solution: f(18.5)=31.47
Step by step solution:
I started by making an equation in slope intercept form- I found the slope, 28/17, with the points (4, 17) and (12.5, 31). Then I found the y intercept, 1, with the point (4, 17). So the equation is y=28/17x+1. Then I just plugged 18.5 where the x is and solved for y
28/17(18.5)+1=y
28/17(37/2)+1=y
1036/34+1= y
30.47+1=y
y=31.47
Keep in mind that 1036/34 is not exactly 30.47 but that 30.47 was rounded to the nearest hundredth
Hope this helps :)
Answer: y - 5 = -5/6 (x - 18)
Step-by-step explanation:
The point-slope form of a linear equation is written using the slope of the line and one point in the line. From part A, the slope of the line representing this situation is m = -5/6.
Since x represents the number of 10-student groups and y represents the number of 12-student groups, the combination of 18 groups of 10 students and 5 groups of 12 students is represented by the point (18,5).
To find a slope we have to use this equation:
(y2 - y1 )/(x2 - x1)
and we have two x's and y's
so we will put them in their places....so (1-(-5))/(4-2)
and we will get 6/2 which is 3
Its A.3
