Answer: 12.75 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent last year's rainfall.
Multiply by 0.8 since this year was 20% less.
x(0.8)= 10.2
x = 12.75
Answer:
x= 1 :))
Step-by-step explanation:
The average rate of change is calculated as the slope of the line between the two points on the graph. Since at x = 1, y = -3, and at x = 3, y = 1, these are the two points which we calculate the slope from. Using the formula
m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)
m = (1 - (-3))/(3 - 1)
m = 4/2
m = 2
Therefore the slope, or the average rate of change, between these points is 2.
4/5 x 2/8 = 0.2 or 8/40 = 4/20 = 2/10 = 1/5
