I disagree with the student because the slope is the rate of change. The slope would be 10 because the rocks are increasing by 10 every month.
Step-by-step explanation:
3x² - 8x + 4 =
3x² - 6x -2x + 4 =
3x(x-2) -2(x-2) =
(3x -2)(x-2)
Answer:
$12.68
Step-by-step explanation:
Multiply the price of one pound by the amount of pounds you're buying,
8.45 x 1.5
= 12.675
Round up
= 12.68
2+2=4
a^2+b^2=c^2
15^2-4^2
=225-16
=209
Answer:
y=2x+7
Step-by-step explanation:
When an equation is parallel to another, it shares the same slope.
Our original line is y=2x-8, and it is in slope-intercept form (y=mx+b)
This means that our slope is 2 because m represents the slope.
The slope of our parallel line will then also be 2.
<u>We can begin to plug that into point-slope form which is:</u>
y - y1 = m(x - x1)
This is where (x1, y1) is a point the line intersects, and m is the slope.
<u>Plugging in the slope, we'll have:</u>
y - y1 = 2(x - x1)
We also know it intersects the point (-4, -1）
We can plug this into our equation as well.
y - (-1) = m(x - (-4))
y+1=2(x+4)
<u>Now, we can simplify it into slope-intercept form:</u>
y+1=2(x+4)
Distribute
y+1=2x+8
Subtract 1 from both sides
y=2x+8-1
y=2x+7
