We don't really have to put this in slope intercept form; it would clearly end up as
y = -4x + something
so we know the slope is -4.
Answer: C) -4
Answer:
0.13 ft/min
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given that

We have to find the increasing rate of change of height of pile when the pile is 12 ft high.
Let d be the diameter of pile
Height of pile=h
d=h
Radius of pile,r=
Volume of pile=

h=12 ft
Substitute the values



First no. = x
Second no. = y
Equation Formation
x + y = 6..........equation(i)
x - y = 10...........equation (ii)
x = 6 - y
6 - y - y = 10
6 - 2 y = 10
-2 y = 10 -6
-2 y = 4
y = -2
x = 6 + 2
x = 8
Answer = 8 , -2
To get the answer we can use proportion
10 large ------------- 14 small
x large -------------- 35 small
crossmultiply
10*35=x*14
350=14x /:14
350:14=14x:14
25=x-its the answer
