Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

y = (-1/2)x + 4 is the equation of a straight line with y-intercept (0, 4) and slope -1/2.

To graph this, first plot the y-intercept (0, 4).

Recall that slope m = rise / run, and notice that the slope in this particular case is -1/2 = rise / run, or rise = -1 and run = 2.

Starting with your pencil point on (0, 4), move the point 2 units to the right (run = 2), arriving at (2, 4). Next, move your pencil point 1 unit down, to (2, 3).

Draw a straight line through (0, 4) and (2, 3).

1,045 to the nearest thousands would be <u>1,000</u> because you must round down since there are no numbers close enough to round up.

Since 4 is between 2 & 5 you input it into the middle equation.

x=4

so the answer is 4!

1. Based on the information in the table, is the cost of the apples proportional to the weight of apples?

lina2011 [118]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

When a number of similar calculations are required, a spreadsheet can reduce the tedium.

1. The price is a constant $1.88 per pound, so is proportional to the weight.

_____

2. The price is not proportional to the number of toppings.

The cost of the pizza is $8.99 plus $1.50 per topping. The base cost being non-zero ensures that the overall cost is not proportional to the number of toppings.
