Answer:

  f(x) = 0.15x +25

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given two points:

  (x, y) = (180, 52) or (350, 77.50)

The slope is given by ...

  m = (y2 -y1)/(x2 -x1)

  m = (77.50 -52)/(350 -180) = 25.50/170 = 0.15

The y-intercept is given by ...

  b = y -mx

  b = 52 -0.15×180 = 25

Then the equation for the linear function is ...

  f(x) = mx +b

  f(x) = 0.15x +25

Ten minus One-third of a number is 4
zloy xaker [14]
Ok, so you automatically know that you are subtracting 6 from 10 to get 4. So, in order to figure out how it is 1/3 of that number, it is going to be multiplied by 3, getting 18. So, the number would be 18.
