Pls see answer below.

Step-by-step explanation:

In this case, our slope is -8. This means that every hour, the storm is getting closer to the town by 8 miles per hour.

Our y-intercept is 200, which means that its' initial position is 200 miles away from the town.

Hope this helped.

Leni [432]

Grid lines to the right represent positive numbers for the first coordinate. 3 of them will put you on a grid line with a value of 3×0.5 = 1.5.


You now know enough to select the correct answer, ...

... (1.5, -2.5)


_____

You can confirm this is the correct answer by figuring the second coordinate. Down represents negative numbers, so down 5 units is -(5×0.5) = -2.5. This matches the second coordinate of the chosen answer.

an underground mine elevator reaches a total depth of 99 meters. it descends 17% of the total distance every minute. how many me
malfutka [58]
17% of 99 is 16.83. Since that's only the distance it goes in one minute we have to multiply that by 3. 16.83 × 3 = 50.49. Since the elevator is moving down then it will be negative. The answer will be -50.49 meters.
