Answer:
D) y = −2/5x
Step-by-step explanation:
In the equation for a line ...
y = mx +b
the constant 'b' is the y-intercept of the line. The y-intercept is the value of y when x = 0.
The point (0, 0) tells you the y-intercept is 0, or b=0. That reduces the equation to the form ...
y = mx
The value of m is most easily found if you have a point where x=1. In that case, ...
y = 1m
y = m
In the given list of points, there is one that is helpful here: (1, -0.4). That is, the equation for the given points is ...
y = -0.4x
The answer choices are given as fractions, so you must convert -0.4 to the fraction -2/5.
y = -2/5x . . . . describes the given points
Answer:
B. Every 16 minutes, 22 more pizzas were set out on the buffet.
Step-by-step explanation:
At 11:00 am, x would be equal to 0, and there would be 15 pizzas on the buffet line. Then, every 8 minutes, 11 more pizzas are added to the buffet line. So in 16 minutes, 22 pizzas will be added to the buffet.
Answer:
4 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
We know the the area of a triangle can be represented as 
.
Since the height is twice the base, we can substitute the value 
in as 
in the expression, making it 
. If the area is 16, we can make the equation
Now to solve for b.

Answer:
3.7 million
Step-by-step explanation:
14,100,000 = 3,000,000 + 3p
3p = 11,100,000
p = 11,100,000 / 3
p = 3,700,000
