Hello there! :)

Let's use the slope formula:

m= $\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1} \\\frac{0-3}{3-0} \\\frac{-3}{3} \\=-1$

So the slope (m) is -1.

Now, let's find the y-intercept. It's where the graph touches the y-axis.

The y-intercept is 3.

So our equation looks like so:

y=-x+3

Hope this helps!

The amount of sales before growth according to the article is $153.85 million

<h3>How to find sales before growth?</h3>

let

Sales before growth = x
Percentage growth = 30%
New sales = $200 million

200 = x + (30% × x)

200 = x + (0.3 × x)

200 = x + 0.3x

200 = 1.3x

x = 200/1.3

x = 153.846153846153

Approximately,

x = $153.85 million

A family is driving from Phoenix to San Francisco. On a map grid, Phoenix is located at (–12, –16), and San Francisco is located

makkiz [27]

The answer is 34.05

The total distance (D) is the sum of three distances (d1, d2, and d3).

The distance formula is $d = \sqrt{(x2-x1)^{2} +(y2-y1)^{2}}$

Distance 1: Phoenix (–12, –16) to Blythe (–20, –9):
 $d1 = \sqrt{(-20-(-12))^{2} +(-9-(-16))^{2}} =\sqrt{(-20+12)^{2} +(-9+16)^{2}} \\ =\sqrt{(-8)^{2} +(7)^{2}}= \sqrt{64+49} = \sqrt{113}= 10.63$

Distance 2: Blythe (–20, –9) to Los Angeles (–33, –4):
$d2 = \sqrt{(-33-(-20))^{2} +(-4-(-9))^{2}} =\sqrt{(-33+20)^{2} +(-4+9)^{2}} \\ =\sqrt{(-13)^{2} +(5)^{2}}= \sqrt{169+25} = \sqrt{194}= 13.93$

Distance 3: Los Angeles (–33, –4) to San Francisco (–36, 5)
 $d3 = \sqrt{(-36-(-33))^{2} +(5-(-4))^{2}} =\sqrt{(-36+33)^{2} +(5+4)^{2}} \\ =\sqrt{(-3)^{2} +(9)^{2}}= \sqrt{9+81} = \sqrt{90}= 9.49$

D = d1 + d2 + d3 = 10.63 + 13.93 + 9.49 = 34.05

The profit from a business is

GuDViN [60]

First of all we will understand the question!!

The question is saying that you are given a function and you have to find the value of x which will give the maximum profit... Lets solve it by finding the extrema using the vertex

 $\rm \: p(x) = - 5 {x}^{2} + 30x + 8$ 

Identify the coefficients a and b of the quadratic function

 $\rm \: p(x) = { - 5x}^{2} + 30x + 8 \\ \rm \: a = - 5 \: and \: b \: = 30$ 

Since a<0, the function has the maximum value at x, calculated by substituting a and b into x=-b/2a

$\rm \: x = \frac{30}{ 2 \times (- 5)}$

Solve the equation for x

$\rm \: x = 3$

The maximum of the quadratic function is at x=3
