Y=mx+b
m=slope=rise/run
if slope>0, then it increases
if slope<0, then decreases because it is going down
y=7-2x
y=-2x+7
-2<0
decreasing
because the y values decrease from left to right
the x values always increase if you go from left to right
B is the answer
Hello!
I was looking for this answer as well, but I took the quiz and got it correct. The answer is 5 units.
good luck!
Answer:
Two points on the graph would be (2,-1) and (4,2).
Step-by-step explanation:
You can choose two random x variables such as how i selected 2 and 4. if you change the variable x to those values you can solve for y or in this case f(x).
EX:
3/2*2-4
6/2-4
3-4
f(x)= -1
Let's represent the number of hours with the variable 'h' (or whatever letter you want it to be):
265 + 48h = 553
Substract both sides by 265:
48h = 288
Divide:
h = 6
6 hours of labor was spent
