Answer:

y=3x+1

Step-by-step explanation:

You get all the steps you need in order to make a linear graph line. you see 3x is where the x intercept is going to be. you always need to see a number at the end of the equation with either +/- sign as in (+1).

(have a great day!)

A homemade loaf of bread turns out to be a perfect cube. Five slices of bread, each 0.6 inch thick, are cut from one end of the

erastovalidia [21]

A cube has all sides of equal length.

So let the side be x

that will be length = width = height = x

Now, when we cut the loaf into 5 equal slices, the length and height of the slices are the same as the original loaf. But the width will become less with each slicing. Here the width corresponds to the thickness of the slices.

For each slice the dimensions are -

Length = x

height = x

width = 0.6

Volume of the original loaf is x³.

Volume of 5 slices is 5(x * x * 0.6).

Volume that is left after the cutting the slices is 235 inch³.

So, equation of the volume is=

x³ - 5(0.6x²) = 235

Solve for x using this equation.

x³ - 3x² = 235

x³ - 3x² - 235 = 0

Using a graph calculator to find the roots, we get

x = 7.35

Hence the dimensions of the original loaf is 7.35 inches for each side.

Please find attached the graph.

What is the slope of the line through (-9, 6) and (-3, 9)? Choose 1 answer:

trasher [3.6K]

Given: Points (-9, 6) and (-3, 9)

Find: The slope of the line that goes through those two points

Solution: In order to find the slope of the line that goes through the points that were provided we have to use the slope formula. This formula subtracts the y-coordinates from each other and also the x-coordinates from each other to determine the rise/run which would give us the rate of change.

Plug in the values

$m = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}$

$m = \frac{9 - 6}{-3 - (-9)}$

Simplify the expression

$m = \frac{3}{-3 + 9}$

$m = \frac{3}{6}$

$m = \frac{1}{2}$

Therefore, looking at the given options we can see that the best fitting one would be option A, 1/2.

Answer:

2 hours: 3968 [I don't understand the $ sign in the answer box]

At midnight: 12137

Step-by-step explanation:

The bacteria are increasing by 15% every hour. So for every hour we will have what we started with, plus 15% more.

The "15% more" can be represented mathematically with (1 + 0.15) or 1.15. Let's call this the "growth factor" and assign it the variable b. b is (1 + percent increase).

Since this per hour, in 1 hour we'll have (3000)*(1.15) = 3450

At the end of the second hour we're increased by 15% again:

(3450)*(1.15) = 3968.

Each additional hour add another (1.15) factor, If we assign a to be the starting population, this can be represented by:

P = a(1.15)^t for this sample that increase 15% per hour. t is time, in hours.

If a represents the growth factor, and P is the total population, the general expression is

P = ab^t

Using this for a = 3000 and b = 1.15, we can find the total population at midnight after starting at 2PM. That is a 10 hour period, so t = 10

P = (3000)*(1.15)^10

P = 12137
