Ratios and proportions tie into each other. A ratio in real life would be basically comparing two quantities, as a proportion would be solving for the similar ratio or the equal ratio to another.
Slope-intercept form:
y = mx + b "m" is the slope
First i would isolate the "y" in the equation.
2x + y = 4 Subtract 2x on both sides
2x - 2x + y = 4 - 2x
y = 4 - 2x or y = -2x + 4
The given line's slope is -2.
For lines to be perpendicular, their slopes have to be the opposite/negative reciprocals (flipped sign and number)
For example:
slope is 2
perpendicular line's slope is -1/2
slope is -2/3
perpendicular line's slope is 3/2
The given line's slope is -2, so the perpendicular line's slope is 1/2.
The 3rd option is your answer
Answer:
Not all labels will be used. ... They charge a certain rate for the rental of a sailboat and an additional ... according to the length of time for which the tourists rent the boat.
The function is always positive.
(0,5) is the y-intercept, since the graphed line never crosses the x axis, there is no x-intercept.
The function is positive and greater than 4 for all values of x
Not sure what the actual choices are on a couple of the questions. The choices would help answering.
