8.3 meters would be the rate per one second
<u>Finding the proportionality constant</u> :
- y = k/x
- 16 = k/(1/2)
- <u>k = 8</u>
<u>Finding y when x = 17</u> :
The value of y is <u>8/17</u> when x = 17.
Ur whole number is 17...now look at the next number to the right....if it is 5 or above, u round that 17 to 18....if it is 4 or below, that 17 stays the same. And since the next number is 6, u r going to have to round the 17 up to 18 (the nearest whole number)
Answer:
y = -7/2x + 17/2
Step-by-step explanation:
Slope = (-9 - - 2)/(5 - 3)
= -7/2
y-intercept: -2 - (-7/2)(3)
= -2 + 21/2 (-2*2+21)/2
= 17/2
