Answer:
graph c is the correct answer
Answer:
6 hours. ( I DID IT USING PROPORTIONS!)
Step-by-step explanation:
houses/hours
130/2.5= 312/x
(cross multiply)
130x = 780
130x/130 = 780/ 130 (divide each by 130)
6 = h
Y=mx+b where m=-6, x=-2, and y=-3. Substituting these values in would result in -3=(-6)(-2)+b, which would simplify to -3=12+b, and further to b=-15. This would mean the y intercept is equal to -15, or (0,-15). To check, (-6)*(-2)-15 is in fact equal to -3, thus allowing easy identification of a graph, which will cross the y axis at -15 and decrease in y-value by 6 with every increase in x-value.
-2 < -3 (I think so anyway)
That is the vertex form of a quadratic equation
