Step-by-step explanation:
Given equations are
and
.........(2)
⇒.......(1)
Equation (2)× 3 - Equation (1)
⇔
⇔-10y = -10
⇔y=1
Putting the value of y in equation (1) we get
⇔x =2
Therefore x=2 and y= 1
Answer:
Part 1) The rate of change is
Part 2) The initial value is 68
Part 3) The function rule to the linear model is
Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
The linear equation in slope intercept form is equal to
where
m is the slope or unit rate
b is the y-intercept or initial value
step 1
Find the slope
take two points from the table
(0,68) and (15,85)
The formula to calculate the slope between two points is equal to
substitute the values
In a linear function , the slope is the same that the rate of change
therefore
The rate of change is
step 2
Find the y-intercept
we know that
The y-intercept is the value of y when the value of x is equal to zero
Looking at the table
For x=0, y=68
therefore
The y-intercept is
The y-intercept is also called the initial value
therefore
The initial value is 68
step 3
Determine the function rule to the linear model
we have
substitute
