To determine the answer, we need to express the fractions into its decimal counterparts. 3/5 is equal to 0.6 therefore it is closest to 0.5 while 1/10 is equal to 0.1 therefore it is the last option. Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day.
Answer: 12a.) slope is 125, y-intercept is 50 (started at 50 ft)
12b.) f(3) = 425 feet
12c.) 3.6 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
12a.) The slope equation is y = mx+b, where m is the slope, and b is the y intercept.
12b.) to find f(3) you could either plug it into the equation given (125x+50) or pretend there is a vertical line at 3 on the x axis, and where it crosses the line given would be the answer.
12c.) He is climbing a 500 ft cliff, and according to the graph, it takes him 3.6 hours to do it. Another way to find this answer would be to find f(3.6), which is indeed 500 ft.
Hope this helps!
