Hi!
To solve this, we must make an equation in y = mx + b form, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.
Since we are looking at a graph with points, it saves us a TON of work, and all we have to do is simply look at the graph. We only need to find m and b, that's it!
M is the slope, and the slope can be represented by the change between points on a line, also known as <em>rise/run. </em>
If we start at point (-4, -1), and go to point (-2, 0), we can see that it goes up 1 and right 2, which would be represented as 1/2.
B is the y-intercept, and that is simply the point that is on the y-axis, which is the point (0, 1), so our number would be 1.
Therefore, plugging these numbers into the equation, our equation is y = <em>1/2</em>x + <em>1</em>

Hope this helps! :D
Xy=12
xdy/dx + y = 12
xdy/dx = 12 - y
dy/dx= (12-y) /x
dy/dx | x=-4 ,y=-3 = (12-(-3))/(-4)
= (12+3)/-4 = -15/4
Answer:
6 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
6 inches burns at rate .8 inches in 1 hour
to be 1.2 inches has to burn 6 -1.2 = 4.8 inches of the candle
4.8 inches / .8 inches in 1 hour = 6 hours
If there is more to the answer than what I give please ask for more!
With

we can find

by substituting 4 into the main function.
So it would look like this:

Hope this helps!
Answer:
A = 1/24 in^2
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the area
A = l*w
A = 1/6 * 1/4
A = 1/24 in^2
