Question

HELP ! :p

Answer 1

They say it started from the mainland harbor which is located at (2,1) so (2,1) should be a point on the graph.

Answer 2

Can you tell which graphs have (2,1) on it??

Answer 3

answer should be C since the slope is negative

Answer 4

B C D all have negative slopes

Answer 5

slope is rise over run but the slope is negative so it should go from left to right

Answer 6

its NOT A since its not a point....

Answer 7

B is NOT it since its not a point either

Answer 8

yes you are right

Answer 9

So it is either C or D since both have (2,1)

Answer 10

c and d r both negative slopes ..

Answer 11

Now evaluate the slope for both. Slope is Rise / Run

Answer 12

ummmm how ? lol

Answer 13

In D The y-intercept is (0,9) and the x intercept is (2,0)

Rise is the movement in Y axis and Run is the movement in x -axis. So start from one point and go to the next point. See how much units you travel in both X and Y

Answer 14

the sloep is rise over run which means it rises 1 and moves right 4

Answer 15

slope*

Answer 16

If you start from (9,0) you have to move 9 units down and 2 units to the right to reach (2,0) right??

Answer 17

Slope = y / x; moving down is negative direction so y = -9 and moving right is positive direction so x = 2, So slope = -9/2 = -4.5

Answer 18

this is for D

Answer 19

ok... is the answer D ? or C?

Answer 20

you tell me???

Answer 21

if you look at the graphs C or D, you know the ferry is located at (2,1) from the given info

look at which graph and see where the point (2,1) is on the line

Answer 22

@Gabylovesyou tell me what is slope for C

Answer 23

i have no clue -.-

Answer 24

did you understand how I found the slope for D earlier?? read my explanation couple of posts ago

Answer 25

ok...

Answer 26

but for c the line is in between how do i know the coordinates ?

Answer 27

OK for C let us choose 2 points which we can see clearly we see (0,1.5) and (6,0) right?

Answer 28

yes

Answer 29

so from Point one if you have to go to point two which way you rise and which way you run?

Answer 30

also how much you rise and how much you run??

Answer 31

way meaning direction +y or -y and +x or-x

Answer 32

ohhhhh ok + x?

Answer 33

from ( 0,1.5) to ( 6,0) you come down 1.5 first and go right 6 , right?

Answer 34

yes

Answer 35

so 1.5 is in -y direction so it is actually -1.5, and 6 in + x direction so 6

Answer 36

ok ..

Answer 37

Now slope is Rise / Run; Rise = Y and Run = X;

So slope will be = -1.5 / 6 = -1/4

Answer 38

so the answer is C :)

Answer 39

yes

Answer 40

thank you soo much
