Answer:
y-intercept = -4
Step-by-step explanation:
equation of a line: y=mx+b
two points given are (5, -6.5) and (-12, 2)
first we can easily find value of m or the slope, by using the slope formula. the value of m=-0.5.
formua to find m:
= -0.5
to find the value of b (the y-intercept), we need to plug in a y and x value, we are given 2 ordered pairs, you can use either one and plug x-value in for x and the y-value in for y.
if i plug in (5, -6.5), my equation looks like this: -6.5=5(-0.5)+b
then you just solve for b and it turns out to be -4.
y = - 4x +3 when slope is -4
NOTE: Parallel lines have same slope.
For the line passing through point (-5, -6) the slope (m) = -4
Equation of that line:
(y - y1) = m (x -x1)
(y --6) = -4(x --5)
(y + 6) = -4(x + 5)
y + 6 = -4x -20
y = -4x -20 -6
y = -4x - 26
To empty the pool, you need to lower the water level by 150cm. since you can only lower it by 30cm every 2 hours (also same as 15 cm per hour), that means it will take you 10 hours.
150cm*(2 hours)/(30cm) = 150*(1/15) = 150/15 = 10.
6 a.m. + 10 hours = 4 p.m.
So the answer is C.) 4 p.m.
