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:
To add or subtract functions, just add or subtract the values at each point where it makes sense. If the functions are given by formulas, you can just add or subtract the formulas (it doesn't matter whether you plug in values before or after).
Step-by-step explanation:
1 1/4 + 1/2 + 3/4 =
5/4 + 1/2 + 3/4 =
5/4 + 2/4 + 3/4 =
10/4 = 2 1/2 (or 2.5) oz's <
Because 16/5 and 48/15 are equivalent fractions
Answer:
The expression used to find the change in temperature per hour is Algebraic expression
Thus per hour; the temperature falls at the rate of 
Step-by-step explanation:
A temperature falls from 0 to 
in 
Which expression finds the change in temperature per hour.
From the above given information;
The initial temperature is 0
The final temperature is
The change in temperature is 
Thus;
-12.25 ° = 3.5 hours
To find the change in x° per hour; we have;
x° = 1 hour
The expression used to find the change in temperature per hour is Algebraic expression
From above if we cross multiply ; we have;
(- 12.25° × 1 hour) = (x° × 3.5 hour)
Divide both sides by 3.5 hours; we have:
x° = - 3.5
x° = 
Thus per hour; the temperature falls at the rate of
