Well, first of all, this line is decreasing. The reason for that is because first of all, it shows that the y-intercept is 5 so, on your graph, your line would start a 5 on the y axis. Now, the slope is the same thing as rise/Run so, -2 is the same thing as -2/1 which means that you would go down 2 units and then you would go across to the right 1 unit and if and when you plot and do this on your graph, you will end up with a line that is decreasing.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming this is the slope equation

-2 is the slope

x is point x

5 is the y intercept

y is point y

the regular equation it y = mx + b

the slope is negative so it is decreasing aka gooing down

sorryy if this is the wrong answer to your question

A farmer kept 96 kilograms of animal feed in his barn. The barn leaked and 1/10 of the feed was wasted. How much animal feed was

qaws [65]

Quantity of animal feed in the barn initially = 96 kg

Fraction of animal feed that was wasted = 1/10 of initial quantity

Quantity of animal feed wasted= (1/10) *96 = 9.6 kg

Quantity of animal feed left = Quantity of animal feed initially - Quantity of animal feed wasted

Quantity of animal feed left = 96-9.6= 86.4 kg

Answer: 86.4 kg of animal feed was left in the barn.

Find the missing side of the triangle.

katovenus [111]

15^2 = x^2 + 11^2

225 = x^2 + 121

Subtract both sides 121

225 - 121 = x^2 + 121 - 121

104 = x^2

x = √104

x = √4 × 26

x = √4 × √26

x = 2 × √26

x = 2 √26

Determine the direction that this parabola opens y=x^2-6x

nalin [4]

Answer:

the graph of the parabola opens upwards.

Step-by-step explanation:

For any quadratic equation of the form

$ax ^ 2 + bx + c$ is true that:

if the main coefficient "a" is negative then the graph of the parabola opens downwards.

If the main coefficient "a" is positive, the parabola opens upwards

In this case the parabola is $y=x^2-6x$

Note that $a=1$ and $a>0$ therefore the graph of the parabola opens upwards.
