I would think that it would be the 3:8 one because if you do the math, 8-3 is 5 and 12-5 is 7. The only reason Im doing it this way is because its the only way I can set it up.
so you have more of a difference with the 12:5 one and less of a difference with the 3:8.
I hope I helped a bit
Answer:
slope: -(9/8)
y-intercept: 7
equation: y = -(9/8)x + 7
Step-by-step explanation:
Solve for the slope.
<em>m</em> (slope) = (y₂ - y₁)/(x₂ - x₁)
Let:
(x₁ , y₁) = (8 , -2)
(x₂ , y₂) = (0 , 7)
Plug in the corresponding numbers to the corresponding variables:
<em>m </em>= (7 - (-2))/(0 - 8)
<em>m</em> = (7 + 2)/(0 - 8)
<em>m</em> = 9/-8
Your slope is -(9/8)
Solve for the y-intercept. Plug in your slope into the slope intercept form:
y = mx + b
Let:
(x , y) = (0 , 7) & m = -(9/8)
Plug in the corresponding numbers to the corresponding variables:
7 = -(9/8)(0) + b
Simplify:
7 = (-9/8 * 0) + b
7 = (0) + b
b = 7
Your y-intercept is 7.

In the equation for surface area the radius is squared ( r^2)
If the radius is doubled, the radius would be 2^2 more which equals 4
The surface area would be 4 times the old surface area.
