To find the slope of the line:
(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
(14-5)/(4-1)=(9)/(3)=3
Only one of your 4 possible answers has 3 as a slope. However, plugging in each point into the y=mx+b equation, the y-intercept consistently comes out as 2..
y=mx+b
14=3(4)+b b=2
5=3(1)+b b=2
y=3x+2
If there is a consistent, positive slope (from your question, this does not seem to have a quadratic as an option), 3x+5 is not even a viable solution because x=1 when the y-value is 5 (and thus no other x value {0} could have a y-value of 5). It seems as though you have a typo on your hands. Hopefully this helps?
Answer:
$4.25
Step-by-step explanation:
Subtract the cost of the spool of thread from the total price:
22.75 - 1.50
= 21.25
Then, divide this by 5 to find the cost of fabric per yard:
= 4.25
So, the cost of the fabric per yard is $4.25
Answer:
Marine pollution is a major problem because it <em>endangers marine life that ingests the pollution which affects us when we eat fish or seafood, makes the ocean less safe for humans to swim in, and the ocean can't function the way it's meant to when unpolluted.</em>
P = 2b + 2c...subtract 2b from both sides
P - 2b = 2c ...divide both sides by 2
(P - 2b) / 2 = c
P/2 - b = c <=== ur answer is D
