A. Robert purchased a 36-inch piece of wood
Answer:
B) y = x + 2 and y = -x - 4
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the equation of a straight line with x-intercept 'a' and y-intercept 'b' be

The line with positive slope has x-intercept a=-2 and y-intercept b=2.
Its equation is:

Multiply through by 2

Solve for y,

For the line with a negative slope,
the x-intercept is a=-4 and the y-intercept is b=-4
Its equation is

Multiply through by -4

Solve for y

Answer:
line of best fit
Step-by-step explanation:
line of best fit is NOT a method for solving a quadratic equation.
Rest of all the methods are used for solving a quadratic equation.
Answer:
20% decrease
Step-by-step explanation:
First, let's find the net decrease: Peter started at 80kg and his weight is now 64kg, which is a 16kg decrease. Next, we need to find what percentage of 80kg 16kg represents. First, let's find what part of 80 is 16:
16/80 = 1/5
To convert this to a percent, we need to find an equivalent fraction to 1/5 with a denominator of 100. To do this, we can multiply the numerator and denominator of 1/5 by 20, giving us 20/100, or 20%.
