Question

1. How many calories is Jane burning per minute?
2. What is the slope of the graph?

Answer 1

Take one intersection point. Divide calories by minutes to see how many she burns in a minute.

Answer 2

@Unofficialllyy this graph is a line in the form for part b to find the slope:

\[y = m(x)+b \]

so the solpe of this line will be m and that is the change in y over the change in x.

in your figure you can pick any two points on your graph and use the formula below

\[\frac{ y_{2}-y_{1} }{ x_{2}-x_{1} } =slope\]

Answer 3

For example: (10, 50) where x is minutes and y is calories

She is burning 50 calories in 10 minutes, so we can divide 50 calories into 10 minutes and that will give us our value.

Answer 4

K one sec

Answer 5

I got 5 for both parts.

Answer 6

It was right, thank you both!

Answer 7

the equation is a line so it's slope is changing at a constant rate.
no problem @Unofficialllyy
