Y + -4 = 9 (this means y plus negative 4 equals 9)
y -4 = 9
+4 +4
y = 13
The answer below (I need 20 characters to respond so just ignore the words between the parenthesis on this response)
Answer is G. It won’t let me post answer unless it has 20 characters lol
I believe the fastest way to solve this problem is to take any two of the given points and to find the slope and y-intercept of the line connecting those two points.
Let's choose the 2 given points (-3,16) and (-1,12).
Going from the first point to the second, the increase in x is 2 and the increase in y is actually a decrease: -4. Thus, the slope of the line connecting these two points is m = -4/2, or m = -2.
Now use the slope-intercept formula to find the y-intercept, b.
One point on the line is (-3,16), and the slope is m = -2.
Thus, the slope-intercept formula y = mx + b becomes 16 = -2(-3) + b.
Here, b comes out to 10.
So now we have the slope and the y-intercept. Write the equation:
y = mx + b becomes y=-2x+10. Which of the four given answer choices is the correct one?
Answer:
24
Step-by-step explanation:
If you go from 2 parts pineapple to 8, thats a 4x increase. Therefore 6x4=24 (6 from the Ginger)
