3. You are sliding a big cabinet down a truck ramp for a customer. You must maintain control of the cabinet because it is very heavy. There are 2 ramps in the building.
The equation of ramp 1 is y = 2x + 7 and the equation of ramp 2 is y = 3 x + 7. Which is the safest ramp to slide the cabinet down without losing control and why?
Y=3x+7 is the safer one because it has a smaller slope.
*Is this corrrect.?
the lower slope has the lower coefficent of x.
What.?Can you tell me what is wrong.?
THINK. No, I wont tell you whether 2 or 3 is amaller. Good grief.
i need help to learn what y=2/3x-12 (when x=-18)
To find the value of y when x equals -18 in the equation y = 2/3x - 12, you simply substitute -18 into the equation for x and solve for y.
First, plug in -18 for x:
y = 2/3(-18) - 12
Next, simplify the expression inside the parentheses:
y = 2/3(-6) - 12
Multiply the numerator by -6:
y = -12 - 12
Combine the like terms:
y = -24
Therefore, when x is equal to -18, y is equal to -24.
