Slope intercept form: y=Mx+b (where m is the slope and b is the y intercept)
So just put it into the equation
Answer: y= -8x + 4
<u>Part A</u>
<u />
<u>Part B</u>
The vertex of the graph will be a maximum because the leading coefficient is negative.
The x coordinate of the vertex is 
.
When x=15/8, 
.
So, the vertex has coordinates 
<u>Part C</u>
Plot the two x-intercepts and the vertex and then draw a curve in the shape of a parabola passing through them.
The graph is in the attached image.
Answer: 13
Althoug each round trip takes 9 minutes and can carry 5 people on the boat, you can not just divide the 20 minutes time by 9 and multiply by 5 to find the number of people that are saved without getting wet.
First trip:
5 people take the boat to the island but only 4 can stay, because one has to return with the boat to the ship to rescue other 4 people.
So, when 9 minutes have passed, 4 people are safe on the island and the boat is again by the ship.
Second trip:
In the second trip, other 4 people are rescued,along with "sailor" who returned in the boat to rescue them.
When it has passed 18 minutes, the boat is next to the ship agin to carry other 4 people before the boat sinks.
This is the last trip before the boat sinks. So, the total number of passengers rescued is 4 + 4 + 5 = 13
