1/9 maybe possible go with the best choice
Answer: y = 1/8x+1
y=mx+b is slope intercept form
given m = 1/8 and a point we can find b by plugging in what we have
1=1/8(8)+b
1=1b
b=1
So then we know m = 1/8 and b = 1
y=1/8x+1 is the answer
The velocity v and maximum height h of the water being pumped into the air are related by the equation
v= 
where g = 32
(a) To find the equation that will give the maximum height of the water , solve the equation for h
v= 
Take square root on both sides
= 2gh
Divide by 2g on both sides
= h
So maximum height of the water h = 
(b) Maximum height h= 80
velocity v= 75 ft/sec
Given g = 32
h = 
h = 
h= 87.89 ft
The pump withe the velocity of 75 ft/sec reaches the maximum height of 87.89 feet. 87.86 is greater than the maximum height 80 feet.
So the pump will meet the fire department needs.
