Any linear equation can be written as
y = mx+b
where m is the slope and b is the y intercept
m = 1/2 in this case. It represents the idea that the snow fell at a rate of 1/2 inch per hour. In other words, the snow level went up 1/2 an inch each time an hour passed by.
b = 8 is the y intercept. It's the starting amount of snow. We start off with 8 inches of snow already.
The info "snow fell for 9 hours" doesn't appear to be relevant here.
Answer:
perpindicular slope = -2/3
Step-by-step explanation:
Just comparing your (x, y) points to the values on the table, it looks like b) would be the quick answer. Since it states under the table to use average values within each range.
So for x=62 (the weight), we have y=122 (the iron count) which would be the average of the range between 115 and 129.
Similiarly, x=70 corresponds to y=146, which is the average of 139 and 153.
You could take the average values of your highest and lowest iron count ranges compare them to the max-min weight to get your slope. Looks like it would be (155-112)/(73-58)= 43/15= 2.8666 repeating. That would make sense with the slope in the equation listed in b) as well.

To solve this I'm going to split the middle term.
First multiply the first and last terms:
24x^2
So find two numbers that multiply to 24x^2 and add to 11x.
This would be 3x and 8x
Rewrite the problem as
4x^2+3x+8x+6
Take the first and 3rd and 2nd and 4th terms
4x^2 and 8x
and
3x and 6
Factor by grouping
Take out a 4x for the first group to get 4x(x+2)
Take out a 3 for the 2nd group to get 3(x+2)
Rewrite as (4x+3)(x+2)
Hope this helps.
