Which functions have a y-intercept that is greater than the y-intercept of the function g(x) = [X + 3) + 4? Check three options.
f(x) = -2 (x-8)
h(x) = -5 X+ 10
j(x) = 4(x + 2)2 + 8
k(x) = 4(x - 4)2 + 4
m(x) = 11X - 81 +6

c > -10.55

step-by-step explanation:

4+4+2x

or

2x+8

step-by-step explanation:

55.44 inches

step-by-step explanation:

part a. assuming a perfectly linear relationship, we can find the slope from the first two data points.

slope = m = (change in rainfall)/(change in years)

= (61.80 -62.33)/(2005 -2004) = -0.53/1 = -0.53

then the point-slope form of the equation of the line can be written as

y = m(x -h) +k . . . . . m = -0.53, (h, k) = (0, 62.33)

y = -0.53x +62.33 . . . x = years after 2004

part b. in 2017, x = 2017 -2004 = 13. then the predicted rainfall is

y = -0.53·13 +62.33 = 55.44 . . inches

the predicted rainfall in 2017 is 55.44 in.
