I disagree with the student because the slope is the rate of change. The slope would be 10 because the rocks are increasing by 10 every month.
<u>Answer:</u>
- 6. 6.75
- 7. 27
- 8. 92/17
- 9. 49
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
<u>- Question 6 -</u>
- 9/16 = x/12
- => 16x = 12 x 9
- => 16x = 108
- => x = 6.75
Hence, <u>the value of x in this proportion is 6.75.</u>
<h3>_______________________________</h3>
<u>- Question 7 -</u>
- -3 + x/18 = 12/9
- => -3/18 + x/18 = 4/3
- => x/18 = 4/3 + 1/6
- => x/18 = 8/6 + 1/6
- => x/18 = 9/6
- => x = 9/6 x 18
- => x = 27
Hence, <u>the value of x is 27</u>
<h3>_______________________________</h3>
<u>- Question 8 -</u>
17/15 = 10/2x - 2
=> 17(2x - 2) = 150
=> 34x - 34 = 150
=> 34x = 184
=> x = 184/34
=> x = 92/17
Hence, <u>the value of x is 92/17</u>
<h3>_______________________________</h3>
<u>- Question 9 -</u>
- x - 16/x + 6 = 3/5
- => 5(x - 16) = 3(x + 6)
- => 5x - 80 = 3x + 18
- => 2x = 98
- => x = 49
Hence, <u>the value of x is 49.</u>

Answer:
see explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the y- intercept let x = 0 in the function
g(0) = 0 - 0 - 84 = - 84 ← y- intercept
To find the x- intercepts let y = 0, that is
x² - 5x - 84 = 0
To factor the quadratic
Consider the factors of the constant term (- 84) which sum to give the coefficient of the x- term
The factors are - 12 and + 7, since
- 12 × 7 = - 84 and - 12 + 7 = - 5, thus
(x - 12)(x + 7) = 0
Equate each factor to zero and solve for x
x - 12 = 0 ⇒ x = 12
x + 7 = 0 ⇒ x = - 7
x- intercepts are x = - 7 and x = 12
x + 2y = 4
2x - 2y = 5
Adding both the equations:
x + 2y + 2x - 2y = 9
3x = 9
x = 3
y = 4-x /2 = 1/2
