<h3>Answer:  D) y = 4x - 8</h3>

========================================================

Explanation:

All linear functions can be written into the form y = mx+b

m = slope

b = y intercept

Choice D is of that form. In this case, m = 4 and b = -8

Choices A and C involve exponents larger than 1, which is why we don't have linear equations here. If you were to graph these, you'll find they produce nonlinear curves (i.e. curves that aren't straight lines). The same goes for choice B as well. Linear equations cannot have x in the denominator.

Write an equation in slope-intercept form for the line that passes through the given point and is perpendicular to the following
Valentin [98]
The perpendicular equation would include a slope that is the opposite reciprocal of the original slope.

Steps:
1. Get x to the other side in the original equation. This making the slope -4 or -4/1.

2. Turn the slope into it’s opposite reciprocal m = 1/4.

3. If you use point-slope form, y - y1 = m( x - x1 ), you can substitute y1 and x1 with the numbers in the point given. But since we previously found the opposite reciprocal, we will replace “m” as well. *By the way, the subtraction of a negative makes a positive. [y + 3 = 1/4( x + 4 )]

4. Solve:
A: Distribute (y + 3 = 1/4x + 1)
B: Subtract 3 from both sides (y = 1/4x -2)

Perpendicular Equation: y = 1/4x - 2

10 people who build at the same rate can frame a house in 6 days. What fractional part of a house can 4 people frame a house in
Alina [70]

10 people who build at the same rate can frame a house in 6 days. That means it will take one person 10\times6=60 days to finish the house.

Which means that it will take 4 people \frac{60}{4}=15 days to finish the house.

So, the fractional part of the house 4 people can frame in 3 days will be \frac{3}{15}=\frac{1}{5}

Thus, Option D is the correct answer.

11) A building casts a shadow of 100 feet. The angle of elevation from the end of the shadow to the top of the
svp [43]

Answer:

≈ 27 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

using the tangent ratio in the right triangle formed by the building and the ground.

tan15° = \frac{opposite}{adjacent} = \frac{?}{100} ( multiply both sides by 100 )

100 × tan15° = ? , then

? ≈ 27 ft ( to the nearest whole number )
