Question

Does anyone know how to do this (#2) PLZZZZ HELPPPPPPPP

Answer 1

a.- slope= 36

Interpretation : The cable car travels 36 meter per minute

b.- y = 36x + 100

c.- 640 meters

Explanation:

a.-

Find slope using the slope formula :
`(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)`

Plug in the two given points:
`(1000-100)/(25-0)`

Subtract the numbers :
`(900)/(25)`

Reduce the fraction : 36

b.-

Using the given y-interspet (100) and the slope create an equation: y = 36x + 100

c.-

Using the equation you created plug in 15 for x to find the

distance: y = 36 (15) + 100

Multiply the numbers : y = 540 + 100

Add the numbers : y = 640
