M- 2 b- 3 ... 2x+3 negative slope not sure if proportional or not
29.) This is simply interpreting the linear function.
The function:
96+2.1x
a.) The 96 is what you start with from the beginning. So, we know Rachel weighed 96 ounces when she was born.
b.) Again, interpretation. The 2.1 is the slope, or the change in the line. So we know that Rachel gains 2.1 ounces each day.
30.) For this one, you just have to plug 9 into the equation for x.
Let c represent the original amount that this guy had saved up.
He spent 25% of this amount, or 0.25c, on the printer.
To progress further, we have to know how much the printer cost.
Supposing that the printer cost $100 (which we do not know as a fact), this would be equal to 0.25c.
Thus, his savings originally amounted to c = $100/0.25 = $400.
7 million because 1 is closer to 7 than to 8
