(intro) Slope is change in y divided by change in x (axes). Here, the y axis is depth and the x axis is hours. So, the slope is change in depth between any two points, divided by the change in hours between the same points. The slope of this line is half a foot depth divided by 2 hours.
a) So, the slope is 0.5 / 2 = 0.25, or 1/4.
b) The graph shows a constant rate of change because the line is straight (it increases at the same speed. If the line was curving, it would not be a constant rate of change).
c) Yes, because the line has a constant rate of change now.
Using proportions, considering the weight of each bar and the ratio, it is found that the ship is carrying 52 gold bars.
<h3>What is a proportion?</h3>
A proportion is a fraction of a total amount, and the measures are related using a rule of three.
Each bar weighs 5 kg, and the total weight is of 600 kg, hence the number of bars is given by:
n = 600/5 = 120.
The proportion of gold bars is given by:
p = 13/(13 + 17) = 13/30
Hence, out of 120 bars, the number of gold bars is given by:
nG = 120 x 13/30 = 4 x 13 = 52.

Answer:
2⁵× 2ˣ = 256
x= 3
(1/3)² (1/3)ˣ = 1/729
x= 4
Step-by-step explanation:
2⁵× 2ˣ = 256
x= 3
use Product Rule: xᵃxᵇ=xᵃ⁺ᵇ
convert both sides to the same base.
2⁵⁺ˣ = 2⁸
cancel the base of 2 on both sides.
5+x=8
subtract 5 from both sides.
x=8-5
simplify 8-5 3.
x=3
(1/2)² (1/3)ˣ = 1/729
x = 4
use division distributive property: (x/y)ᵃ=xᵃ/yᵃ
i hope this helped i didn't feel like typing the rest out though lol :(
