Answer:

b=-0.0019a + 215

at 2500 ft, b=210.25 degrees F

Step-by-step explanation:

First find the slope. a=altitude, b = temperature

slope is b2-b1 / a2-a1

points are (8200, 199.42) and (4700, 206.07)

(206.07 - 199.42) / (4700-8200)

= 6.65/ -3500

= - 0.0019

we have b = -0.0019a + intercept

plug in a point to find intercept

199.42 = -0.0019*8200 + intercept

intercept = 199.42 + 15.58 = 215

b=-0.0019a + 215

at a=2500 ft, substitute into equation

b= -0.0019*2500 + 215

= -4.75 + 215

= 210.25 degrees F

Answer:

15 units

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance between two points can be found using the following formula:

$d\sf=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)+(y_2-y_1)}$

Given points:

(-7, 5) and (2, -7)

<u>where:</u>

x₁ = -7
x₂ = 2
y₁ = 5
y₂ = -7

Substitute these points into the formula and simplify:

$\sf d=\sqrt{(2-(-7))^2+((-7)-5)^2} \ \textsf{[simplify the radicand]}\\\\ d=\sqrt{(2+7)^2+(-12)^2} \ \textsf{[simplify]}\\\\d=\sqrt{(9)^2+(-12)^2} \ \textsf{[evaluate the power]}\\\\d=\sqrt{81+144} \ \textsf{[add]}\\\\d=\sqrt{225}\ \textsf{[simplify]}\\\\d=15$
