Yes this equation does pass through the first quadrant
1) isolate y
4x + 5y = 60
-4x -4x
_____________
5y = -4x + 60
2) make y so that is is alone with no numbers beside it
5y = -4x + 60
__________
5
y = -4/5x + 60
3) the slope is ALWAYS the number to the left of x, even if it's a fraction. It's it a decimal, convert to a fraction. The last number (in this case is 60) is where the slope crosses the y-axis on the coordinate plane.
The slope is -4/5x + 60
Answer and Step-by-step explanation: The graph is shown in the attachment.
a. ΔR on [1,2] is mathematically expressed as:
ΔR = R(2) - R(1)
which means difference of population of rabbits after 2 months and after 1 month.


R(2) = 


![\Delta R = 100[\frac{4}{5} - \frac{2}{5} ]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5CDelta%20R%20%3D%20100%5B%5Cfrac%7B4%7D%7B5%7D%20-%20%5Cfrac%7B2%7D%7B5%7D%20%5D)
40
Difference of rabbits between first and second months is 40.
b. R(0) = 100(
)
R(0) = 0
Initially, there no rabbits in the population.
c. R(10) = 
R(10) = 400
In 10 months, there will be 400 rabbits.
d. R(t) = 500



t = 12.5
In 12 and half months, population of rabbits will be 500.
