The first one 3y = 2x - 12.
The graph is the line y = 2/3 - 4. And the first answer describes the same line multipled by 3.
Y = mx + b
m is your slope AKA rate of change
b is the y intercept.
from the graph we can see that the y intercept (b) is 15. (look at the y axis and see what point the line crosses on the y, here it is 15, in-between 10 and 20)
slope is rate of change. to figure this out remember slope = rise over run:

so pick two points. how much does one point rise after the other point you picked? In the graph it rises 1 square so rise = 1
Now looking at the same two points, how far away from each other are they on the x axis? Looking at the graph they are 2 squares away from each other. so run = 2
Now plug these numbers into the rise over run formula:

Now we have everything we need to put into our formula for a line:


For number 16 you should get:

after you do the same steps again yourself
Step-by-step explanation:
year 2012 population = 2,254,000*3.5%
= 78.89
each year up to 2020
so 2020 - 2012 =8
78.89*8 = 631
total population at end of 2020 =2,254,000 + 631
= 2,254631
Answer:
9/35
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the total trip distance.
Since Maria is assigned to drive 3/7 of the total trip, she is to drive 3x/7.
Now, since Maria has driven 3/5 of 3x/7, the amount of the total trip she has driven is 3/5 × 3x/7 = 9x/35.
So, Maria has driven 9/35 of the total trip.
