Answer:   y = -1/2x+3

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we are given two points on the graph, we are going to use these points to find the slope using the formula m = y2-y1 / x2-y1, where m is equal to the slope.

Since it doesn't matter which points are 1 and which are two, we are just going to make (-4,5) x2 and y2, and (4,1) x1 and y1. Plugging everything in we get 5-1/-4-4 = 4/-8 = -1/2. So, -1/2 is our slope.

Now we can plug in the slope and one of our previous points, again it doesn't matter which one, into y = mx + b to find b, the y-intercept. We are going to use the point (4,1) and when we plug it in we get 1 = -1/2(4) + b and b ends up being equal to 3.

So when we plug in 3 for the y - intercept and  -1/2 for the slope, we get y = -1/2x+3

The measurements 45.367 cm and 43.43 cm are made in the same unit of measure. Which measurement is less precise? Explain your an
Kaylis [27]

Answer:

45.367 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Approximating to a more number of decimal places gives a better estimation of the exact value.

For 45.367 cm, we approximated to three decimal places or five significant figures.

For 43.43 cm, the approximation is done to four decimal places.

Therefore the measurement 45.367cm is more precise because it has a relatively smaller error.
