Question 3

1 answer:

5 0

Answer: y = -6x + 2

m = y_2 - y_1
/ x_2 - x_1

-10 - 8
/ 2 - (-1)

= -18/3 = -6

m (slope) = -6

y = mx + b
y = -6x +b

Find b using (-1,8)
y = -6x +b
8 = -6(-1) + b
8 = 6 + b
-6 -6
2 = b

Final answer: y = -6x + 2

To check using one of the points: (-1,8) or (2,-10)
y = -6x + 2
-10 = -6(2) + 2
-10 = -12 + 2
-10 = -10
This is a true statement.

Answer:

The surface area of the rectangular prism.

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the surface area of a rectangular prism is SA = 2 (wl + hl + hw), which actually represents the areas of each of the faces.

SA = 2wl + 2hl + 2hw

We see that the SA is the sum of the areas of the faces on a rectangular prism. Look at a picture of a rectangular prism if you have trouble understanding this.

The price of a bag of candy is a linear function of the amount of candy in the bag. A bag containing 25 pieces costs $0.99 and a

OlgaM077 [116]

Answer:

About 152 pieces of candy

Step-by-step explanation:

Set up equal proportions to solve for the $5.99 bag.

We know that 24 pieces = .99, so

$\frac{25 pieces}{.99 dollars} = \frac{x pieces}{5.99 dollars}$

Make sure to keep the pieces on top, and the dollars on bottom (or vice versa). If your units are messed up, it will not work.

Cross-multiply.

25(5.99) = .99x

Simplify.

149.75 = .99x

Divide both sides by .99.

x = 151.26 = about 151 pieces of candy
