The slope can be calculated by subtracting the y values (the rises) and dividing the difference by the difference between the x values (the runs) to get rise over run. -1-4= -5 (differences in y's) & 5-(-2)= 7 (the differences in the x's). now divide the difference in the y' by the difference in the x's to get m= -5/7.
Answer:
The y intercept of Function A is greater than the y intercept of Function B.
Step-by-step explanation:
-3 is greater than -4.
Answer:
6 hours.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let t represent time taken by plant 1 in hours to release the waste.
Part of waste released by plant 1 in one hour would be
.
We have been given that two chemical plant 1 releases waste twice as fast as plant 2, so time taken by plant 2 to release the waste would be
.
Part of waste released by plant 2 in one hour would be
.
We are also told that together they fill the tank in 4 hours. So part of tank filled by both plants working together in one hour would be
.




Therefore, it will take 6 hours for the faster plant to fill the tank working alone.
The equation for this line is y=1.3x+2
R = d/t is the answer. Hope this helped
