The population of jose’s town in 1995 was 2400 and the population in 2000 was

4000. let x represent the number of years since 1995. write a linear equation, in slope-

intercept form, that represents this data.

Step-by-step explanation:

Remember, a line has the form , where is the slope and is the y-intercept. In this cases, y represents the population when have been passed x years since 1995.

Since x represent the number of years since 1995, then in 1995, x=0 and the population is 2400. Then a point of the linear equation is (x,y)=(0,2400).

In 2000 has been passes 5 years since 1995 and the population is 4000, this means that x=5 and y=4000. Then other point in the line is (x,y)=(5,4000)

For find the equation of the line that describe the preview situation we use the points found.

Remember, if and are pointsin the plane, the slope of the line that passes through the points is

, and the line is of the form

Then, using the points (0,2400),(5,4000), we have that

and

stethere all not eveanp-by-step explanation:

answer: first option i.e. 'a' is correct.

step-by-step explanation:

since we have given that

number of minutes to wrap a small gift box = 4 minutes

we need to find the number of gifts to be wrapped in 5 minutes

since there is a direct variation, as the number of minutes will increase with   number of gifts to be wrapped.

so, let the number of gifts to be wrapped in 5 minutes be x.

so, it becomes,

hence, first option 'a'   is correct.
