The answer should be 8x+5
Answer: The slope is 4/9 or -4/-9.
Step-by-step explanation:
(1,5)
(10,9) Find the difference in the y values and divide it by the difference in the x values.
5-9= -4
1- 10= -9
-4/-9= 4/9
so the slope is 4/9
Using the slope we could also find the y-intercept and write the equation.
5=4/9 (1) + b where b is the y-intercept
5= 4/9 + b
-4/9 -4/9
b= 41/9
Now we will have the equation y= 4/9 + 41/9
5 because you have to divide 60 by 12.
We are given equation g = 748u, where g is the total number of gallons of water used and u is the number of units.
We can see that the number of units of water being used by customers.
The number of units of water doesn't depend on the total number of gallons of water used.
Therefore, the number of units u is an independent variable.
The value of the total number of gallons is totally depends on the number of units used.
Therefore, the total number of gallons of water used g is a dependent variable.
So, we can conclude following statements:
1) g is the dependent variable.
2) u is the independent variable.
