Carmen hikes at a constant rate. The graph shows the distance Carmen has traveled at different times during his hike. What is the slope of the line that represents the situation? Enter the slope as a fraction.

m = 2/3
to find slope use rise/run count how many up then how many across from any given two points
ok thank you so much
can you help me with some otheres?

Juan always saves the same amount from his weekly allowance. The table shows how much he has saved at different times. Which equation represents the situation? Juan’s Savings Weeks 3 6 9 12 Amount saved 19 28 37 46 A. y – 3 = −3(x – 19) B. y – 28 = 3(x – 6) C. y + 9 = −3(x + 37) D. y + 46 = 3(x – 12)
or use the slope formula : slope = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1) and use your 2 sets of points : (6,4)...x1 = 6 and y1 = 4 (3,2)...x2 = 3 and y2 = 2 now sub and you will have your slope
@texaschic101 plz help me on my question
lol towo people fighting over someone to help them with thier math xD
two*
anyone?

do you no have a graphing calculator? just set everything equal to Y and graph them, then do rise over run

do you?
nope

im playing 8 pool cuz school boring
cool wish i could
nah it sucks
at least you dont have to do school work cause i do and im trying ot get this answered so i can move on and get today over with
that sucks
yeah
use your slope formula : slope = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1) now look at your table and use 2 sets of points.. weeks are you x points and amount saved is your y points (3,19) ... x1 = 3 and y1 = 19 (6,28)...x2 = 6 and y2 = 28 now we sub into our slope formula slope (m) = (28 - 19) / (6 - 3) slope (m) = 9/3 which = 3 so our slope(m) = 3 now we will use point slope form : y - y1 = m(x - x1) slope(m) = 3 and use either of your points..but I believe your answer choices are using (6,28) (6,28)...x1 = 6 and y1 = 28 now we sub y - 28 = 3(x - 6) so I am gonna go with B
ok thank you so much had to read it all to understand how you got b. :P i really didnt understand this crap!!!D: but now i kinda do
A scientist recorded the growth of a plant over time. He used the data to make the graph below. Which equation represents the situation? A. y = 1.5x − 2 B. y = 1.5x + 2 C. y = 2x – 1.5 D. y = 2x + 1.5
first figure out the slope so take 2 point on the line and do \(\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}\)
@RainbowBubbles01 are you here?
yeah im here sorry
its fine just making sure \(\huge\ddot\smile\)
so what was it?
what was what?
the answer silly
im not going to just give it to you
i gave you a formula to help you get to the answer
I know you dont know me but i am not a math person and all i can do it mulitply subtract and add sometime division
all this is is subtracting
UUUUUUUUUuuhghgh with fractions and fractions are my worst enemy
lets say your first point is 2,5 and your second point is 6,11 substitute the first point for \(x_1~and~y_1\) and the second point for \(x_2~and~y_2\)
what in the ** is that x1 and v1
this is going to be the equation all you have to do is simplify it \(\dfrac{11-5}{6-2}\) just do 11-5 and 6-2
ok
what do you get?
3/2
is ti right?
it*
yes which is equal to 1 1/2
so far now you have y=1.5x+? What number does the line intersect with on the y axis?
2/5?
idk
im not good with y axis and x axis and stuff like that
see the y axis all the way on the left that has 0-12 going up?
why the question mark?
and yeah i see it
ok what number does the line cross on that axis?
2,5
that are closer
no it crosses at the number 2
o
so you now have y=1.5x+2
now i see where you got the two xD im so dumb
its fine i used to be horrible with this to but now look at me :-)
i wish i was like you
Martin has a gift card to a coffee shop. Each day he buys the same coffee. The table shows the amount remaining on the gift card on different days. How much was on the card on Day 6? $ Martin’s Gift Card Days 2 4 5 7 Amount remaining 24.10 18.20 15.25 9.35
can you figure out how much he spent each day?
12.05
are you saying that is the answer?
no how much he spends each day
is $72.30 the answer i think it is
if he spends 12.05 each day then the card wouldnt last him very long do 18.20 (day 4) - 15.25 (day 5)
ok i got $2.95
correct so that is how much he is spending each day now do 15.25 (day 5) - 2.95 (amount he spends) = ? (day 6)
$13.25
not quite
try again?
12.30
yes :-)
thx for helping em through
i passed:D
