What is the equation of the graph shown above?

y=mx+b

m=slope

b=y-intercept

y=mx+6


Two versions to find m:

Plug in a point(3,3)

3=3m+6

m=-1

or

m= (y2-y1)/(x2-x1) = (0-3)/(6-3)=-1

C. y=-x+6

The length of a male's femur, a bone in the leg, is a reliable predictor for his overall height. The equation above shows an approximation for the height in inches, H, of a male based on the length in inches, L, of his femur. Which of the following expresses the length of a male's femur in terms of his overall height?

Reorganize the equation in terms of L:

H=1.88L + 32.01

1.88L=H-32.01

A. L= (H-32.01)/1.88

An art dealer believes that the price of a certain sculpture worth $2800 today will increase by 12% per year for the next five years. the dealer uses the equation P=2800(r)^t to model the prince, P, of the sculpture after t yhears. WHat value should the dealer use for r

Xt=X0( 1+/-R)^t

R(in the problem)= 1+/-R(for CapeD)

INCREASE

r= 1+ R= 1+ 0.12

= 1.12
