Help ASAP!!! A cayenne pepper stalk produces 4 peppers without adding fertilizer. The agriculture department establishes that th

e number of pods produced can be increased by adding fertilizer to the soil. The linear relationship between the number of pepper pods produced and the amount (ounces) of fertilizer added can be modeled by
y = 2.5x + 4.
1. Interpret the slope of the equation
2. Interpret the y-intercept of the equation
3. How many pepper pods can be expected after adding 1.6 ounces of fitilizer to the soil?

1. For every ounce of fertilizer 2.5 more pepper pods can be expected.

2. When no fertilizer is added, 4 pepper pods can be expected.

3. 8 pepper pods. Plug in 1.6 for X: y=2.5(1.6)+4=8

Answer:

1. slope= 2.5

2. y-intercept= 0,4

3.  Plug in 1.6 for X: y=2.5(1.6)+4=8 so it would be 8 .

(2×4)×7=2×(7×4) what property does this demonstrate
notka56 [123]
Well,

As we can see, the only difference is that the parentheses have moved.

This is an example of the associative property.  It is specifically of multiplication, because products are used in this case.

Just as a test, let's see whether they are really equal.

Following PEMDAS, we get:
(2*4)7 = 2(7*4)
(8)7 = 2(28)
56 = 56

They are equivalent.

What does k equal if <br>485= 1/((k)(5.99x10^-3))
Verizon [17]
k\ne 0

485=\frac{1}{(k)(5.99*10^{-3})}\\\\ \frac{485}{1}= \frac{1}{0.00599k}\\\\ 485*0.00599k=1\\\\ k=\frac{1}{485*0.00599}\\\\k\approx 0.3442

Write an equation of the perpendicular bisector of the segment with endpoints U(-3,4) and V(9,8)
stealth61 [152]

Answer:

y=-3x+15

Step-by-step explanation:

the midpoint of UV (using the midpoint formula) is (3,6)

the slope of UV= 4/12= (1/3)

perpendicular slope is -3

now find line with slope -3 passing (3,6)

y-6=-3(x-3)

y=-3x+15
