does the slope and y-intercept reveal about the situation?


1.)The balloon starts at a height of 10 ft and rises at a rate of 0 ft.
2.)The balloon starts at a height of 0 ft and rises at a rate of 10 ft.
3.)The balloon starts at a height of 0 ft and rises at a rate of 100 ft.

Answer 1

The answer is 3

The bottom left corner represents 0(ft) and 0(sec)

1,000 divided by 10 = 100

That's as best of an explanation I can give.
