Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Slope is an average. In this particular context, the slope of 6.9 (or 7) means that an average of 7 people entered the store every hour.
If x is the number of hours the store is open and we are told to find the number of customers that have entered the store after 5 hours, we fill in the equation as follows:
y = 7(5) + 10 and
y = 35 + 10 so
y = 45.
If you use 6.9 instead of 7:
y = 6.9(5) + 10 and
y = 34.5 + 10 so
y = 45.5
Since you can't count a half of a person, using 7 instead of 6.9 makes more sense.
Answer:
3/1
Step-by-step explanation:
The average rate of change is the distance between y values divided by the distance between x values. We know this as rise/run or slope for linear equations. For non-linear equations, we calculate the average over an interval.
This function has y-values of -1 at x=0 and 5 at x=2.
We add -1+5=6 and divide this by 2-0=2.
6/2=3.
The y-values on average change 3 units for every 1 unit of the x-values.

B.) 
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
c) 82
Step-by-step explanation:
<ABE and <BEC are supplementary because they form a line.
<ABE + <BEC = 180
116+ x = 180
Subtract 116 from each side.
116-116+x = 180 -116
x = 64
The angles in triangle ECB add to 180 because it is a triangle
<BEC + <ECB + <CBE = 180
x + 34+y = 180
64 + 34+ y = 180
98 + y = 180
Subtract 98 from each side.
98-98+y = 180-98
y = 82
Normal rate: $10/hr
Time and a half= $15/hr
Double pay: $20/hr
Hours to be paid at $10/hr =32 hours
$10/hr x 32hrs= $320
$20/hr x 8hrs= $160
$15/hr x 15hrs=$225
Total gross pay: $705
