Answer:

The slope of the line is 14 pounds per day

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that The local hiking club went on a 7-day hiking trip to Denali National  Park.

The group started with 98 pounds

We are also given that the decreasing amount of food each day is modeled by a linear  function

On Day 1  amount of food = 98 pounds

Since day 7 was the last day

So, On Day 8 amount of food = 0

So,(x_1,y_1)=(1,98)

(x_2,y_2)=(8,0)

Slope = Constant Rate of change per unit

Slope = \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}=\frac{0-98}{8-1}

So, Slope =\frac{-98}{7}

Slope = - 14

Negative sign shows decreasing amount of food each day

Hence the slope of the line is 14 pounds per day

0.8/y =2: 3/4 Please help
bulgar [2K]

Answer:

0.3

Step-by-step explanation:

0.8/y = 2 : 3/4

The value of y in the above expression can be obtained as follow:

0.8/y = 2 : 3/4

0.8/y = 2 ÷ 3/4

0.8/y = 2 × 4/3

0.8/y = 8/3

Cross multiply

0.8 × 3 = y × 8

2.4 = 8y

Divide both side by the coefficient of y i.e 8

y = 2.4/8

y = 0.3

Thus, the value of y is 0.3

Select the correct answer from each drop-down menu. if f(x)=x^2+2x-3 and g(x)=x^2-9, find (f/g)(4) and (f+g)(4).
Nataly_w [17]

Answer:

(f/g)(4) = 3

(f + g)(4) = 28

Step-by-step explanation:

(f/g) = \frac{x^2+2x-3}{x^2-9}

(f + g) = 2x^2 + 2x -12

Simply plug in 4 for x in both equations to find you answer!
