Answer:

Note: Since you missed to add the image, so after a little research, I was able to find the image related to this question, which hopefully serves the purpose to clear your concept. The image is attached below.

Step-by-step explanation:

Part 1) What is the slope for section "d" of Mrs. Washington's commute

Calculating the slope for section "d" of Mrs. Washington's commute:

Slope of the section d  =(y_(2) - y_(1))/(x_(2) - x_(1))

(6 - 0)/(32 - 20)=(1)/(2)=0.5

Part 2) What does it mean that the slope is negative in context of the problem?

The slope is being negative as it is moving downward from the left. In negative slop, the value of x increase, while the vale of y decreases. In positive slop, the value of both x and y increases.

Part 3) Why are the slopes different over different intervals?

Slopes are different at different intervals as the distance covered in time taken for each part of the given journey are different, also the speed is not the same for each interval.

As the speed can be calculated as

Speed\:=\:(distance)/(time)\:

Distance = y_(2) -y_(1) = 20 - 15 = 5

Time = x_(2) -x_(1)= 8 - 0 = 8

Speed = (5)/(8)=0.625

Therefore, the speed in the part 1 is 0.625ms^(-1)

Part 4) How long does it take Mrs. Washington to get home? How did you know this?

It is clear from the graph that does take 32 minutes to her to get home.  

We can observe it from the graph that it represents the total time taken across the entire journey.

A bird feeder 24 times using 6 cups each time. A bag of seeds holds 32 cups. How many bags of seed did he use?

Answers

First, let's find how many cups the bird feeder uses 24 times.

24 x 6 = (20 x 6) + (4 x 6) = 120 + 24 = 148 cups.

Now, let's divide 148 by 32.

148 ÷ 32 = 4.625 bags of seed.

Which of the following is true about the equation y = -5x + 10?A. The equation is proportional.

B. The equation has a positive slope.

C. The equation has a positive y-intercept.

D. The equation has a negative y-intercept.
TG

Answers

Answer:

C and most likely A

Step-by-step explanation:

A) The equation is proportional.

If the equation forms a straight line on a graph, having a slope that is neither zero or infinity, it is proportional.

B) The equation has a positive y-intercept.

The y intercept in the equation is variable b. Since the equation has +10, it is positive.

Answer:

-9

Step-by-step explanation:

180=85+44+60+(x)-9

Answer:

A. -9

Step-by-step explanation:

A triangle equals 180 degrees so:

60 + 85 + x + 44 = 180

add like terms

x + 189 = 180

subtract 189 from both sides

x = -9
