(-3,-5)(2,4)
slope(m) = (4 - (-5) / (2 - (-3) = (4 + 5) / (2 + 3) = 9/5
y - y1 = m(x - x1)
slope(m) = 9/5
(2,4)...x1 = 2 and y1 = 4
sub
y - 4 = 9/5(x - 1)....this is the correct answer
the student figured the slope wrong....it is 9/5...not -9/5
Since a total of 55 people rated it good/very good, we know that 1/3 of the viewers are 55 people. So we can set the equation: 1/3x=55
Now, just multiply both sides by 3 (or divide by 1/3, same thing) and get your answer!
You reflect point A over the x-axis, double the distance from point a to the x-axis, then give the coordinates.
ex/ point A to the x-axis: 6, reflection: 12. coordinates (-6, 5)
So, first let's refill the barrel to the top:
37.5 + 7*2.5 = 55
Now that it's full again, let's divide the total amount by the rate of water loss:
55/2.5 = 22
It will take 22 minutes to completely empty the rain barrel
