a) The slope of the line relating Alyssa's sales to earnings is given by
slope = (change in earnings)/(change in sales)
Using the first two table entries, the slope is calculated as
slope = (110 -80)/(200 -10) = 30/200 = 0.15
The first entry in the table shows the y-intercept, the value of earnings (80) for zero sales. The slope-intercept form of the equation for a line is
y = slope*x + y-intercept
To answer the first question, we put the slope and intercept values in the appropriate spots in the equation.
The equation that gives Alyssa's daily earnings based on her total sales is
y = 0.15x +80
b) The y-intercept of the line represents the part of Alyssa's earnings that doesn't depend on sales. It is Alyssa's fixed daily wage.
c) The slope of the equation represents Alyssa's commission rate.
d) The y-intercept is 80.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The area of a circle is :A= π r² r : the radius
A= 8π square units
so : π r² = 8π
r² = 8
r = √8 = √(4 × 2) =√4×√2
r = 2√2 units

Answer: what the heck do you have to answer
Step-by-step explanation:
Step-by-step explanation:
This is a linear equation in slope intercept form which is
where m is the slope and b is the y intercept.
The equation
Has a slope of -1/3 so this means that the slope will be decreasing. A negative linear equation increases as we go left. and decreases as we go right. The y intercept is 2. So this means the graph must pass through (0,2) and when x=0, y must be 2.
In other words, look for a line that the y values increase as we go left and decrease we go right. Also look for a point (0,2) and make sure the graph pass through it.
