Answer:
The absolute value of a number means the distance from 0. -5 is 5 units away from 0. So the absolute value of that -5 is 5. You cannot have negative distance, so it has to be positive.
Step-by-step explanation:
Yes, it's y= 1/2x because it's 1/2 miles (y) per x weeks
Answer:
1. 60. 2. -6. 3. -4/5
Step-by-step explanation:
Okay so I haven't done slope in 3 years but I used to be a god at it so please tell me if you get this right and I'm so so sorry if you get them wrong
Answer:
The initial height is the y-intercept of the graph
slope of the graph = -2
Jordon interprets the only the slope correctly.
Aral interprets the only the initial height correctly.
Step-by-step explanation:
Slope = change in y ÷ change in x = (0 - 12) ÷ (6 - 0) = -12 ÷ 6 = -2
So the slope of the graph = -2
by inspection, the y-intercept = 12
Therefore, the equation for the line is y = -2x + 12
Jordon interprets the only the slope correctly.
Aral interprets the only the initial height correctly
