Answer: The pole is 17 feet long

Step-by-step explanation: If Matthew's shadow is 2 feet smaller than his actually size, the shadow of the pole will also be reduced. Since the pole's shadow is 15 feet long, adding 2 will give you its original size, 17 feet.

In your own words, describe how to graph the linear equation y = -1/5x + 3. Step by step
Gemiola [76]

Answer:

Steps given below and graph is attached.

Step-by-step explanation:

First Step:

Find out y-intercept by substituting x=0

y=-\frac{1}{5}\times 0+3\\\\y=3\\\\Hence\ line\ passes\ through\ (0,3).

Second Step:

Find out x-intercept by substituting y=0.

0=-\frac{1}{5}x+3\\\\\frac{1}{5}x=3\\\\x=15\\\\Hence\ line\ passes\ through\ (15,0).

Third Step:

Draw a line passing through (0,3)\ and\ (15,0).

Graph is attached.

Answer:

Cost of per session the average rate is $45.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that a gym membership with two personal training session cost $125, while gym membership with five personal training sessions cost $260.

It is required to find what is the cost per session.

Step 1 of 1

It is given that a gym membership with two personal training session cost $125, while gym membership with five personal training sessions cost $260.

To find the cost of per session calculate the average rate.

Now let $f(x)$ be the cost per session use the for the average rate of change, and the input value is the number of personal traings x.

$m=\frac{f\left(x_{2}\right)-f\left(x_{1}\right)}{x_{2}-x_{1}}$$

Now substitute, $125 for $f\left(x_{2}\right), 260 for $f\left(x_{1}\right), 2$ for $x_{1}$ and 5 for $x_{2}$ then,

$m=\frac{260-125}{5-2}$\$$\begin{aligned}&=\frac{135}{3} \\&=45\end{aligned}$$

Cost of per session the average rate is $45.
