Answer:

c. slope: -3/2, y-intercept: 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

First, let's find out the y-intercept. The y-intercept is where the line crosses the y-axis (the vertical line). In this question, the line crosses the y-axis at 1/2, so that is the y-intercept.

Now, we'll find the slope. The first thing we can do is look for two simple points on the graph. The points I'm going to use are (3, -4) and (1, -1). Slope is written rise over run. If you look at the point (3, -4) and rise (go up/down) 3 (up) and run (go across) -2 (left), you will reach the point (1, -1).

So the slope is -3/2 and the y-intercept is 1/2, which is in answer c.

I hope this helps you out, and have an amazing day (｡･v･)ﾉﾞ

Student Council is selling candy grams. They are using the formula

Luden [163]

Answer:

Our equation is:

y = f(x) = 2.5*x

The domain is the set of the values of x.

The range is the set of the values of y.

They must sell between 55 and 60 candy grams to meet their goal.

If we assume these as restrictions for the domain, then the minimum value of x is 55, and the maximum value of x is 60.

Then the domain is:

D: 55 ≤ x ≤ 60.

Now that we know the domain, we can find the range.

As our equation is linear with a positive coefficient, the minimum in the range will coincide with the minimum in the domain, then we have:

y = 2.5*55 = 137.5

And the maximum will coincide with the maximum in the domain:

y = 2.5*60 = 150.

Then the range is:

y = 137.5 ≤ y ≤ 150

How do u set up the word problem

galina1969 [7]

Answer:

8 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

First, draw a picture. The pole is 22 feet tall. Katherine is 5.5 feet tall. She is 24 feet from the pole. The light from the top of the pole to the tip of her shadow forms two similar right triangles. The length of her shadow is x.

Now use similar triangles to write a proportion:

22 / (24 + x) = 5.5 / x

Cross multiply:

22x = 5.5 (24 + x)

Distribute:

22x = 132 + 5.5x

Combine like terms:

16.5x = 132

Divide:

x = 8

The shadow is 8 feet long.
