M = y2-y1/x2-x1
m = 7- (-2)/ -6-(-7)
m = 9/1
slope = 9
The initial value is 21 and rate of change is 16 pages per week
<em><u>Solution:</u></em>
Given that After writing part of his novel, Thomas is now writing 16 pages per week
After 4 weeks, he has written 85 pages.
Given that assume the relationship to be linear
Linear relationships can be expressed either in a graphical format or as a mathematical equation of the form y = mx + c
y = mx + c
where "y" is the number of pages written after 4 weeks
x = 4 weeks and m = 16 pages
Therefore,
85 = 16(4) + c
85 = 64 + c
c = 85 - 64
c = 21
Therefore, initial value is 21 and rate of change is 16 pages per week

Answer:
a) F
b) B, E, D
Step-by-step explanation:
a) The segment with the greatest gradient has the largest change in y-values per unit change in x-values
From the given option, the rate of change of the <em>y </em>to the<em> </em>x-values of B = the gradient = (4 units)/(2 units) = 2
The gradient of F = (-3units)/(1 unit) = -3
The gradient of A = 4/4 = 1
The gradient of C = -2/5
The gradient of D = 2/6 = 1/3
The gradient of E = 3/4
The segment with the greatest gradient is F
b) The steepest segment has the higher gradient
From their calculated we have;
The gradient of segment B = 2 therefore, B is steeper than E that has a gradient of 3/4, and E is steeper than D, as the gradient of D = 1/3
Therefore, we have;
B, E, D.
