Given:
A table of values of a linear function.
To find:
The slope, y-intercept and equation of the function.
Solution:
Take any two points on the table.
Let the points are (-1, -3) and (0, -6).
Slope of the line:
m = -3
Slope of the function = -3
y-intercept of the function is the point where x = 0.
In the table y = -6 when x = 0
y-intercept = -6
Equation of a line:
y = mx + c
where m is the slope and c is the y-intercept
y = -3x + (-6)
y = -3x - 6
Equation of a function is y = -3x - 6.
Answer:
QRS equals to 91
Step-by-step explanation:
50 + 41 = 91
Answer:
282.74
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the rate of descent is a constant this is a linear equation and can be expressed as:
h=vt+b, where h=feet, v=slope or rate, b=y-intercept (y value when x=0 which is the initial height)
h=-2t+b, using the point (3,67) we can solve for b, or the initial height
67=-2(3)+b
67=-6+b
73=b so the initial height was 73 ft and the height equation is then:
h(t)=67-2t so when t=8 you have:
h(8)=67-2(8)
h(8)=67-16
h(8)=51 ft
