Use the graph to answer the following questions:
(6 points)
1) Is the graph increasing or decreasing?
2) Is the graph linear or non linear?
3) What is the slope?
4) What does the slope mean in context?
5) What is the x-intercept?
6) What does the x-intercept mean in context?
The graph
starts with the number 50 and goes uup to 450 on the y axis and on the x axis it starts at 5 and ends 35
the line is positive and starts at the number 150 and goes up until between 20 and 25
1) The graph is increasing.
2) The graph is linear.
3) The slope of the line is 10.
4) The slope represents the rate of change of the y-variable with respect to the x-variable. In this context, the slope of 10 means that for every increase of 1 in the x-variable, the y-variable increases by 10.
5) The x-intercept is between 20 and 25 on the x-axis.
6) The x-intercept represents the point on the graph where the y-variable is equal to zero. In this context, the x-intercept represents the value of the x-variable at which the y-variable becomes zero.
