For finding the value of b, we must consider that Line MN passes through points M(4, 3) and N(7, 12). With this condition y = mx + b, can be written 3=4m+ b (because line passes through M(4,3) ) and 12=7m+b, b ( because line passes through M(7,12)).
We have a system of equation
4m+ b=3
7m+b=12
For solving this, 4m+b- (7m+b)= 3-12, it is equivalent to -3m= -9 and then m=3, if m=3 so
4x3 +b =3 implies b= 3 -12= -9, so the value of b= -9

Answer:
66
Step-by-step explanation:
180 - 105 = 75
75 + 39 = 114
180 - 114 = 66
The container will take 25 minutes to go from full to empty.
Explanation:
In 15 minutes, the container has lost 3 gallons of water (
5
−

=

).
Since the leak is at a constant rate, we can determine that every five minutes the container loses one gallon.
So for the container to lose the full 5 gallons will take 25 minutes (

)
About 0.3 degrees, by estimation.
The sixty-to-one rule is useful here. At a distance of 60 units, the angle in degrees and the distance (in units) are about equal for small angles.
Thirty to two inches is the same as sixty to four inches, about a third of a foot, so the angle must be about a third of a degree. Rounded it gives 0.3.
My horribly antiquated TI-82 thinks the answer is about 0.3183 by this methodtan−1(1/180)≈0.3183
