So first you would divide 1950/6 to find the amount for one year of their age.
Then you would multiply that by the ages, which should get you 4 numbers, then you all those numbers together. Try 9750.
Let's use the slope intercept form of a line which is:
y=mx+b where m=slope and b=y-intercept.
Mathematically m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1) and the y-intercept is just the value of y when x is equal to zero, where the line intercepts the y axis...
First you want to find the slope by finding two clearly identifiable points on the graph...I'll pick (4,4) and (0,1), now we can calculate the slope or "m"...
m=(4-1)/(4-0)=3/4 so now we can say our line is:
y=0.75x+b, using point (4,4) we can now solve for b.
4=0.75(4)+b
4=3+b
b=1 so the line is"
y=0.75x+1
It's indepentent. In fact, the tar pit's temperature DEPENDS (dependent variable) by the air's temperature (independent variable).
Answer:
To get to -3 you can do 1+-4
